Skye Pillsbury: Exposing the Work Behind the Mic

Wed, 08 Apr 2026 10:00:00 GMT

The podcasting industry has a hidden "underbelly" where the producers and sound engineers—the people actually making the shows—are often undervalued and squeezed out of the conversation. In this eye-opening episode, Tracy Hazard talks with Skye Pillsbury, the investigative force behind The Squeeze newsletter. Skye shares how her deep dives into the "undervalued work of the podcast producer" struck a chord across the industry, revealing how big media machines often take advantage of the very people who build their success. From the messy reality of network acquisitions to the lack of credit for back-end talent, Skye explains why it is time to recognize podcasting’s unsung heroes.

Tracy and Skye get real about why platforms like Spotify and iHeart have faced such a "train wreck" recently. They discuss how "juicing" listener numbers for big celebrity shows—like those from the Obamas or Meghan Markle—creates a house of cards that eventually collapses, leading to massive layoffs for hardworking producers. By chasing short-term advertiser dollars with fake stream counts instead of building loyal, engaged audiences, these networks have damaged the industry's reputation.

Maximize Podcast Engagement with Shaunna Lee: Start Again

Tue, 17 Mar 2026 10:00:00 GMT

Maximizing podcast engagement is achievable through a mix of solo topical episodes and intentional guest selection, a strategy Shaunna Lee of the Start Again podcast uses to build deep trust with her listeners. By shifting from a "leave it to the universe" approach to using tools like PodMatch for specific screening, creators can ensure their guests align with their brand's current season and marketing goals. As Shaunna explains, the key is to stop worrying about perfection and instead focus on "imperfect action," which builds the momentum and confidence necessary to turn a quiet show into a thriving community.

Understanding the "binge factor" of your show involves creating a synergy between guest stories and solo content that keeps listeners coming back for more. Shaunna Lee highlights the importance of theming seasons—such as focusing on authors or specific monthly topics like "love month"—to tie podcast content directly into broader business promotions and email marketing. By implementing "baby steps" and maintaining a consistent weekly presence, podcasters can navigate the challenges of audience growth and prepare for major milestones like reaching the elite 2% of shows that surpass the 100-episode mark.

Mastering CEO Mindset and Team Leadership with William Attaway

Wed, 11 Feb 2026 11:00:00 GMT

Catalytic leadership requires a fundamental shift from abdication to intentionality, focusing on the DNA of your team as your most important asset. Dr. William Attaway of the Catalytic Leadership Podcast shares how leading yourself is the hardest task you will ever face, but scaling a business to the 6 and 7-figure mark demands developing leadership as a specific skill. By transitioning from a startup mentality to a CEO perspective, entrepreneurs learn that "what got you here won’t get you there," necessitating new systems, processes, and a commitment to hiring the right people rather than just "warm bodies."

Dr. Attaway emphasizes that success in both leadership and podcasting comes from evaluated experience—the habit of asking what went right, what went wrong, and what to do differently next time. By amping his production to twice per week, he leverages his podcast as a high-value networking tool that builds deep trust with his target audience of marketing agency owners. This approach ensures that every conversation is an opportunity for relationship-building and authority-building, moving beyond "coasting" into a proactive pursuit of excellence that resonates with high-level leaders.

Making Invisible Illness Visible: What You Need To Know About It? With Harper Spero Of Made Visible

Mon, 05 Aug 2019 10:00:00 GMT

It’s so easy for us to assume that everyone’s able-bodied. Unfortunately, many of us are not. There are tons of people who are walking down the street all over the world living with health issues – mental and physical – that we have no idea they’re dealing with. It could be anything from depression and bipolar disorder to multiple sclerosis, cystic fibrosis, PoTS disease, and all these things that many people haven’t even heard of. People hide this because of the shame around it. Harper Spero had the same experience when she was diagnosed with a super rare autoimmune deficiency called hyper-IgE Job syndrome. She tells us about her the story of how she finally decided to come out with it and how she is now bringing invisible illnesses to light and creating a platform for others to share their stories with her podcast, Made Visible.
