"I feel like starting the podcast was one of the best things I could ever have done. It's really given me emotional contact with people. It's widened my knowledge of what's going on in the world.""There's more than one way to enjoy birds. And actually there's a very long list of the ways that you can enjoy them. There's people that do mindful birding, so they will just sit and appreciate the birds that are around.""I still have the show and it's still my passion. I move around about what kind of episodes I'm going to release, and over the last year I've struggled to be consistent.

"The industry is real tough and if you're ever exposed to that, I think you're going to have to realize that just being great at your instrument is great, but it's not enough. You need to do all the other stuff, which is like networking. Not being an idiot is quite an interesting part of it as well." "I thought there was too many podcasts at the start when I joined. I do believe everyone's got different voice. And what I mean by that is that's a bit of a cliche, but in a travel perspective, if you went to Thailand tomorrow and I went to Thailand tomorrow for the same amount of time, even in the same places, we're going to have different story because things happen to you that's different to me." "I think the real content there to really appeal is let's not give it away too much. Let's tell you what El Salvador is like and what I did and who I met and some sounds and some tips. But I want the imagination to not be completely gone. I want you to think, oh yeah, what else did he see? Like, should I go there?"Resources Mentioned

That’s how I started at the New Yorker.""I remember right around the time I got my first iPhone, there was this weird icon I didn’t know. I found Rachel Maddow and started listening to a ton of her podcasts. For years, that was the only podcast I knew about until things developed in that space.""When I started making Lost Hills, just being able to bring people’s voices to the listeners was so cool to me.

It wasn't about making money; it was about having meaningful conversations.""The pandemic was a turning point for me. I saw a lot of poor management and encroachment on civil rights. I realized that talking to another best-selling author wasn't going to address these issues.

Tweetable Quotes
"I grew up in a home where there was music on always. My dad was a huge music buff, and he introduced me to jazz and classical, and then my two older brothers introduced me to metal. So I had a wide spectrum of noise growing up.""What I really wanted to do is create an audio production tool for producing studio-quality content in any language, just by typing. The technology is finally here to make that possible.""I love always having a beginner's mindset. It gives me so much energy and makes me feel like I'm always choosing the adventure path, even though I've been in the industry for a long time."Resources Mentioned
