California storms hit beekeepers, but honey outlook's sweet

"Storms in California have hit beekeepers hard, but the outlook for honey is sweet. All that rain along with wind and chilly temperatures kept bees in Jean brandy's hives. But this year we had to do a lot more feeding because the bees were not able to fly and we just want to make sure that they don't starve to death on us. The bees are expensive to feed, but it's more expensive if the high dies. We have a hole drilled on top of every hive cover that we can invert a can into and feed them that way, give them a gallon of sugar short to make sure that they don't starve. California was battered this winter by at least a dozen atmospheric rivers, as well as powerful storms, some hives were washed away by flooding. The Rain is expected to bring a burst of spring wildflowers. It has the makings of a great year. It should be a great year for honey in California. Brandi says they've been praying for rain for the last three dry years, and they finally have it. I'm Ed Donahue

"No. It's a chemical. When you eat meat, meat has high in dairy products have high choline levels in carnitine. And when the bacteria feed on the meat, they actually release this chemical. It's actually TMA, it goes to the liver that is converted to TMAO. Go on the Internet. Nick, we understand your enthusiastic and we understand you've dove into a lot of this stuff and you understand probably a lot more than we do. If I can just put a bow about this on this, I would say that, you know, these mechanisms, the chemicals and everything else, are not evidence for clinicians. What is evidence for clinicians are anecdotes or studies and the studies have been ruined by the financial interests for the most part, including the agricultural interests and so on and so forth. And if you think meat is powerful, the beef people, they're a shadow of the rest of big agriculture. You know, the corn, and all that other stuff. Like I have one question for you. Who's going to benefit more from a study that shows the meat and dairy is good for you? Versus like broccoli is good for you. Like who's going to benefit from like, you know, who's going to fund that study? Well, the broad agricultural money in America is devoted to producing the sugars and other things. And I know doctor Grigor's example is broccoli isn't profitable. And it makes a certain kind of a sense, but it's an analogy rather than reality. The reality is, is that the big money is in the farming and these interests have been pushing us through this cholesterol model and a lot of other stuff. But we don't have any time left. I want to be respectful and Nick, you are someone who's worthy of respect. And I would urge my listeners to decide for themselves and look through doctor brandy's material and have a look at doctor grier's website and I got to say I was captivated by that for about 18 months. Went vegan and then I looked at all the other evidence that said that saturated fats are good for you. And that beef is probably the healthiest food of all. But we're going to agree to disagree. Because they've recently said that red meat is a probable carcinogen in processing. Anyway, look, Nick, I really appreciate this and it's a thrill to get back together with you. Nick was a an important figure in our professional group and I was also ran. So I want to tell you, Nick, I admired your work from afar and always thought you had two you had twins, didn't you were adopted? How are they doing? They're doing great. You're doing super and then I have another little girl that I adopt that she's 26 now though. And they're all doing great. And you had a brother who worked in your office, didn't you? Right. He worked with me. He ran all the marketing and the finances, and so forth. That's a wonderful ally to have family involved like that. My wife worked with me. Well, sometimes it is. Exactly. That's right. When you're in business with your brother, you get into something like, you know, close to a fistfight. Yeah. Older younger brother. We made it work. Older younger brother. Yeah, he's one year ago. When you're younger. Well, again, I'm grateful for your time. I want to stay in touch this time. And I'm going to look at your stuff again as well. Awesome. Keep in touch. Okay, thanks again. I know.

I don't know whether he's still practicing some, but I'm obviously off down another rabbit hole and I think he is too. I hate to use that word. That's kind of a 20s. Something expression.

The Left's Child-Mutilating Death Cult With Terry Schilling

"Another piece of tape here, NBC's brandy zadrozny blames Matt Walsh and libs of TikTok for the increase in violence against the gay community. So it's somehow Matt's fault and Elon's fault and libs of TikTok and shows like ours fault because we're really concerned that children are going to be medically mutilated and lied to by their teachers and these groomers. Play cut 59. Content moderation is a hard task. What we know is that Twitter and where the bulk of this information is right now because that's where the biggest accounts like Matt Walsh and lives of TikTok again where they sort of post this stuff. What's being done? Well, two days ago, we know that Elon Musk, who owns Twitter now. He just reversed the policy that Twitter did have against targeting and harassment of LGBTQ people against misgendering transgender people. So that narrative continues Terry any other thoughts. Yeah, look, I want to skip to the versions because that's what this is. They are the ones committing violence against transgender people or as I would describe them people with gender dysphoria. We need to hold them accountable for the violence and the destruction that they are inflicting on our brothers and sisters on our children. They are destroying their lives. They are creating sexually destroyed people that won't be able to have families that won't be able to have sexual gratification down the road. These are evil people and that's called projection. They are projecting their own guilt onto us because they know that they are the ones that are destroying our kids. They're the ones that are making these people unhappy. And you know why they're doing it because there's power behind it because there's money behind it. This big pharma companies, these surgeons, they're all on camera now, talking about how much money they're making. They're the evil ones. We're the good ones. Don't relent. We have to keep fighting.

"Like I see things as this big picture and then it's hard for me to kind of get down into the details a bit. But I've had some people throughout my career and I think particularly dealing with employees with a team that I have aspired to kind of follow in their footsteps and I guess initially being a pretty small team and not really knowing the direction we were going. And I'm a little bit of a control freak. So it was hard for me not to want to control everyone, especially when there's like three of us and it's easy. And as you grow, it becomes unmanageable. But I really looked to some of my mentors in the past of thinking about how they let go and empowered people around them to make decisions, you know, to lift them up based on those decisions is that they that they made. I don't have anybody that I could point to specifically, but I think there's been a lot of people throughout my career that have demonstrated what a good leader looks like and that's really what I'm trying to do every day. You know, for me, brandy whalen is the one person I look up to in my brain is great. She made the self professed control freak, but she's very balanced and rooted, and I think it really is a nice play to me because I am just all fire and hitting the gas. I'm a go person. So that's great. But I think both brandy and I was kind of instrumental in our businesses, you know, we're big fans of Gino wickman that hulk traction kind of like methodology and we'll revisit that quarterly and slowly implement a lot of his tools into our business. And I think that's done a really good job for kind of providing a scaffolding as we're like kind of bootstrapping this thing as far as we can go. We talked about mistakes earlier, right? But a little bit different spin. If you could go back to the beginning, what would you do differently or where would you consider taking a different approach? I actually don't know as if I would do anything differently. I think we definitely stumbled in the beginning. We're testing it out. We were really just trying to make clients happy, not really sure how to do that or what we were doing. And it was a lot of missteps along the way. I think we probably are some of our initial clients. We just we mishandled because we just weren't sure what kind of communication was needed along that path. I would say that that's probably the one thing that I would have changed, but I don't think there's any way that we could have actually known what needed to be done until we kind of fell on her face and then pulled herself back up and said, okay, how could we do this better? Clearly we're missing something on the communication front here and we need to be in more constant communication than what we're doing right now. So there's really nothing. I think all of it. We haven't fallen that hard yet to make me want to completely change course altogether. I think everything we've done has been a really nice baby fall and has been really the impetus to making the changes in which needed to be made. The one thing I would change, you know, we're a service based startup bootstrapped. So cash flow is number one priority for us at all times. Had I done the math a little bit better, we would have started payroll on a 24 week payroll process as opposed to 26. So, you know, if you've tasted the rude awakening of those three pay period months, that hurts. Especially when as kind of like labor intensive as we are. So I think that's one thing where didn't see that one coming and that ended up being a pretty exorbitant cost that took us a while to kind of recover from. But we did and it was okay, but that's something that stands out for sure that I would do different. Well, last question, guys. So you're getting on a plane and you're sitting next to a young entrepreneur who's built the next big thing. They're jazzed about it. They can't wait to show it off to the world. They can't wait to show it off to you right there on the plane. What advice do you give that person? Having gone down this road a bit. Sell it before you build it. Start there. That's good. One of our clients actually talks about your Edison team, being people that help push it to the finish line. So I think my piece of advice was make sure that you have a super solid Edison team around you that doesn't necessarily have the same skill sets that you do. And maybe take a real hard look at yourself and where are you deficient and who can you surround yourself with to lift those pieces up? Both great pieces of advice.

"It comes to bringing people on to our team. Yeah, we rely really heavily on Katie and she's done really well. We launched officially probably four months before COVID lockdown. I think we have 1920 employees now and a few contractors. So we've been hiring at a pretty good clip for service based business. You know, brandy and I both being parents might have been helpful because, you know, like Brandi spoke to, we really wanted to create a nurturing environment for our staff, like a kind place to work and I personally really care about how they feel and how they approach work, how they can leave work at work and what they do and their own time, like protecting that, you know? It was important to us. Early on, I think we were able to kind of bring in our people and say, you know what? You're going to be safe here. We're going to work hard. We don't know what the future looks like, but because we're booking podcasts, it was kind of an opportune time where everybody went home and everybody turned on their mics. Early on, we're growing and we're all kind of terrified of the future. And it was a little bit hard to feel good about what we were doing because there was so much suffering, but that slowly kind of is fading, you know? Thankfully, that all that seems to be at least for now behind us until God only knows what next variants coming. But I think the remnants of a nurturing and caring culture is still rooted in kit Caster and we can kind of build and grow upon that and see how our team also can facilitate that for each other. Let's flip to scalability then. You know, it's interesting to think about scalability in two different forms. The agency side, right, which is a different scalability problem. Versus podcast guest list, which is perhaps a little more technology based, but tell me about how you approached both of those or are approaching both of those. And how you're sort of fighting this as you've grown and gained traction. You know, if we're talking about scaling the server side, there's going to be other services that we can provide that are really become solutions for our clients. And it could be a problem because we want to be very secure that we do this one thing. But then, you know, we want to make sure that they're being held taken care of so that we have other services to provide for them. And then we start spinning those out into their own brands. So scaling the agency scaling service is always about making sure that the clients are getting what they want. And if we hear somebody tell us 5 times that this is what they want, we'll figure out a way that we can add that in a way that makes sense with our bottom line, but also our business model. Being a new company, you don't have a lot of data and analytics to lean on. So figuring out what's normal, what's a normal month look like, what is above average month look like and what are our slow months and then figuring out how to scale on the agency side? Now we have a couple of years under our belt so we can kind of see some of those trends if they continue to stay true to what they are, so we have an understanding of kind of where we need to grow and who we need to bring on to the team. And in terms of additional products or the launches, we really, as Ryan was talking about before when people come to us and they ask, hey, we started a podcast. Can you find guests for our podcasts? Or I have these great interviews. What do I do with them? Do you guys create content? You know, we've had some PR agencies and other agencies reach out to us and they want to white label our services. And these were all the things that kept coming up continuously. So we've been, we've been slowly launching beta brands around all of these things that people come to us and ask, you know, not only did we launch the podcast guest list, and that was a need that people were like, would love to work with you all. I don't have the finances to do that at this point. Great. We have a place for you. Now we have the content studio that we launched. Knowing that going on an interview is just phase one, right? And then how do you get those words out into the world? So we launched the content studio. Well, we still haven't officially launched it, but I guess the beta of it. So we've just been working with our clients and some podcast hosts and we'll repurpose essentially their podcast interviews into social content, blog posts. And then we started a white label agency side to our business where we're working with agencies and we're behind the scenes, booking podcasts for their clients. So, you know, maybe they were, they just were unable to secure podcasts the way that we can. It's just kind of stepping outside of their normal workflows. We were able to come in and help them out on that front. Early on in podcasting, it was important because podcast conversations kind of became a Trojan horse where I could go pick the brains of successful founders and see what they did right, but also here, you know, what they did wrong. What's so exciting about kit casters we do that all the time. You know, we have very, very successful software developers, app developers, game developers, AI, machine learning, blockchain, everything you name it. One thing that we've kind of learned is building a dashboard and a platform where somebody has to go somewhere else and do some other things and communication is urging them to come back to this thing. That's a really hard thing to do. I have one client in mind particularly where they're, you know, a gigantically popular ecommerce platform that was built largely around hype, venture capital, and strong marketing. So you're talking about, let's say, a 10 million app download launch, all this enthusiasm, you're 24 months away from that and you have 10 million people that download the app and then it has about a hundred people that still use it. So from a software perspective and we're thinking about scaling an app, the idea of getting VC fund money and getting a big marketing campaign and launching it isn't as appealing as figuring out a way that we can provide the solutions that we have on the platforms that people are already using. Recently, as I've been thinking about software solutions, I've been thinking about where are people already, you know, people are an SMS. People are in Gmail. People are on Zoom. There's tools that are already in there that all have app markets and how can we facilitate and do what we do, whether that's for kid Caster services or maybe something beyond that in a podcast guest list type service to figure out a way to scale that will actually be sticky. Well, as you step out on the balcony and you look across all that you've built, kit Caster, agency, tooling, all that you've built. What are you most proud of? I'm most proud of our people. They're amazing. And we do on Thursdays, we do a labs meeting, which is basically like bring new ideas. We have such great participation and such awesome ideas of people thinking about our business and just as we've been talking about, like, what are some complimentary services? What are some products that might be complimentary? What's some technology? And people get really excited and they bring new ideas to the table and then they come up with a plan to test it out. And they know how we work. We're willing to test anything. We really are. You come with an idea, we will, we will build it up and we will try it. So I am most proud of that. Like giving people the creative freedom to develop. I think Brady and I both kind of approached that company culture from a place of human dignity, like we really want to hire people that care and that have creative ability and just get out of their way. Last week we did kind of an annual party that we call kit con, which is kind of a three day, we fly in our guy from Pennsylvania and everyone comes and just do fun team building stuff, eat barbecue, go bowling, that kind of thing, and then a big.

"A long form form of journalism. So, you know, just kind of figuring out what the best approach is. And systematizing, but also knowing that there's nuances to it all. So with any first version of anything, you've got to make decisions and tradeoffs. What you're going to start with, right? And what you're going to delay. And it sounds like there was a lot of decisions and thought around people. And coming from the traditional industry, but also a mindset of systems and sass. So tell me about working through those decisions and how you cope with them in the early days. Yeah, there's those two considerations and more and trying to figure out how to best build a culture and then making sure that people feel supported through technology. And also, are there gaps in what we do that we could develop a technology to support what we're doing? As Ryan said, we started out using Trello, we realized quickly that wasn't going to work for us. We pivoted. We pivot pretty quickly. I would say that when we when we're testing something and it's not working and we've kind of turned it to each angle and it's still not working. We abandon and we find something that works better. I think one of the strengths of brandy and I's partnership is that we've been kind of entrepreneurs for ten plus years. That is to say that all kit Caster does is book entrepreneurs on podcasts. But that's not all we do. We knew there's going to be opportunity for people to be like, hey, will you produce our show? We book our podcast. Will you do this? We do that. And it's like, well, yeah, we certainly could do that, but now we're starting to dilute the brand and the clarity. What we've achieved by having the clarity of we only book entrepreneurs on podcasts is creating really strong relationships with other people in the podcast industry. We know that we can be the best in the world at booking. We don't want to dilute the brand. There's a big population of folks who want to be on podcasts, but maybe can't afford our services. So is there something that we could develop that those folks could come in, at least be represented almost like a LinkedIn platform, but for folks that are actually interested in being on podcasts and then podcast hosts being able to shop guests essentially. Without our involvement. So that's when we started the podcast guest list, which was kind of an offshoot of our service, where people could come, we're driving hosts to that platform. They're looking at potential guests, and then they're making the connection directly. So the podcast guest list is an extension of kind of our mission to not only be a service company, but to be a software company. And early on, we saw this opportunity of like, wow. Could we do this without podcast agents? Could people go in there and book their own shows? And there's probably a half a dozen products that do that to relative degrees of success. Our podcast guest list is still in beta, we haven't officially launched it, but it's interesting enough to keep percolating and keep developing to figure out a way that it would be ready for kind of a launch. In that case, what we would do is create a unique brand, it'd still be a kit Caster entity, but it would stand alone on its own, so it has also the same strength of clarity that the podcast guest list is what it is by itself. It doesn't have any relation to kit Caster. So there's no kind of confusion there. You know, we kind of have a launch formula that we keep it in house, keep it close to us, validate with the people that we know love and trust and that will give us honest feedback and then kind of start working outwards to see if it's got it's got traction. I'm curious though so you mentioned that there's a few flavors out there, right? For lack of a better way to say there's a few flavors out there that does that. How are you building podcast guest list or whatever brand you end up calling it? To be differentiated from those other marketplaces. That's the key. We don't know. The idea is to find a differentiator. All the competitors in that space are basically like anybody can show up and then you have a category and you try and match by categories. Kind of how we're thinking about it is like maybe there needs to be a home for one category. That's part of the validation is figuring out how we're going to do things a little bit differently because it is going to have to take something unique. A unique offering or a unique lane that we end up sticking in that sets us apart from people that are already doing this. And to make it successful and something beneficial, part of the our agency side of things is that we've built trust with hosts. They trust us. They trust that we're going to be sending people that they know we've done our research and that these guests are going to align and be fantastic interviews. But with the podcast guest lists, it's the unknown. The hosts are kind of going in a little blind looking at profiles and making a choice. Figuring out how to build that confidence in the host that we're working with, that these folks are going to be also great interviews. I very much value and appreciate the goal to maintain that trust because as a kid cast your partner or in as a show who works with you guys often. I very much can vouch for that in the quality of guests that you bring to the table. We're going to come back to the scaling factor of podcast guest lists because I think it's going to be interesting, but I want to know how you go about building your team. What do you look for in the people that you bring on to kit Caster to indicate that they are the winning horses to join you? I would say like the common thread amongst everyone is the creativity piece. There's a lot of common characteristics amongst our team, most everyone comes from a communications background, whether that be journalism, PR, creative writing, we have a lot of creatives on our team. And I think that that's a really important aspect to the characteristics of the folks that we surround ourselves with. It takes some creativity at times to essentially sell a conversation, a story, and to be able to tap into that, whether it be creative writing or just a different way to tackle a challenge. And also just everyone's just super self motivated. I think that's something that Ryan and I really made clear in the beginning is that we never want to be micromanaging anyone. Everyone knows we're very clear on what the expectations are and everyone takes care of themself and exactly what needs to be done. And we have a very supportive culture too, everyone jumps in and helps each other out. The best thing that I've done for hiring is to take myself completely out of the whole system. Process. I have the nasty habit of falling in love with anybody I'm talking to. You know, early on, I was involved in some of the interviews and I would be like, they're great and brandy would look at me like, what are you talking about? Oh, they're not. Okay. We have a director of operations and she's been with us since day one, and she's just got the magic touch when.

"My chat with brandy and Ryan. What was appealing in the beginning is I was coming from software with that lean and mean idea of like small team, big margins, and when we were talking about kit Caster or what would become kit casser, it became apparent very early on that the way you scale this business is with butts and seats. And we wanted to make sure that we were being very thoughtful and not only our approach internally, but externally, how are we presenting ourselves? And people are able to work efficiently and effectively, and also figuring out the best way to connect with podcast hosts. I'm brandy whalen. I'm Ryan estes. And we are the founders of kit Caster, a podcast booking agency. This is code story. The podcast bringing you interviews with tech visionaries. Who share in the critical minds of what it takes to change an industry and build and lead a team that has your back. I'm your host, Noah Lampard. And today, how brandy and Ryan set out to take on the world of podcasting. And get you booked on top podcasts. All this and more. On code story. Brandy Whelan and Ryan estes are two different kinds of folks. Join together in a unified mission. If you look up Denver guy in the dictionary, you will see a picture of Ryan in a flannel shirt with a dog, a truck, and speeding off to hit up his fishing spot. He's a Family Guy, trains in martial arts, and previously owned an agency. Brandi is not a Denver native. In fact, she grew up in Iowa on a turkey form with 30,000 turkeys. Wow. She's married with three boys, and likes to get in the mountains to hike or snowboard during the right seasons. In their prior roles, brandy had pitched a client to Ryan for his podcast. As Ryan describes it, she's a great networker and instigator. When they both had the itch to do a new project, they looked to podcasting. After some initial validation, they confirmed that they had stumbled upon a need. This is the creation story of kit Caster, the podcast booking agency. I had a podcast called the Denver business podcast, maybe 5 or 6 years ago that was largely a founder show and Brandi was working in PR and pitched me one of her clients to be interviewed on the show, which went great. Brandy and I connected maybe after two or three of her clients had been on the podcast and brandy is just an absolute wonderful networker and kind of instigator, you know? So we're kind of getting breakfast and she's like, let's do something. What do you want to do? Let's do a project. I was like, okay, that sounds cool. We figured podcasting is probably a good place to begin because largely that's how we had met. So at the time, I was building a crowdfunding company for kind of blue collar service workers called career funded, and I dumped a bunch of money and time into it kind of a lean and mean startup model. And it was just kind of floundering. So I was really hungry for like a new project. So we're like, okay, let's figure out something in podcasting, podcasting has lots of moving parts. As you know, so we're figuring out ways we could be of service, but also to create a project that we could scale and that we could be the best in the world at, because why else would you want to do something if you can't be the best? So we came up with an idea for a podcast booking agency. Both of us had history and experience in the startup world, and so that seemed like a good ideal customer. So we put together a pilot program kind of set out to see if this would be a service people would be interested in. My experience with bringing ideas to life is to be really diligent with kind of the validation process. So I always start any project with a hundred phone calls. See what I learn, you know? Before I fall in love with an idea and dedicate all my time and money to it, you know, I want to make sure it's going to have legs. This is three years ago, brandy and I were talking, we really kind of fleshed out the offer. I called for my clients and three of them bought it. I called for handy. I was like, really excited. I was like, hey, I think we got something here. And Ryan's so good at validating. I think I could see it, but it was hard for me to think about how we were going to put it in motion. And to almost create a SaaS model around our service. We both come from the service world, marketing agency, PR agency. So we were both very concerned with scope creep. So how can we create something that is packaged and it's a monthly service and we're delivering monthly on that service. As we have promised. So it was really testing the waters and figuring out what made the most sense and then implementing the technology and systems to work most effectively. So from that point, we wrapped a brand around it really worked out the tools we were going to implement the service with and that following September we launched officially. Tell me about the first version of your agency. I heard the word pilot program, so maybe that's it, or maybe it's the validation call, you take it where you want to, but the MVP, so to speak, of kit Caster. How long did it take you to put together and what sort of tools did you use to bring it to life? That was a big one. You know, 'cause it's like, once you commit to something, like, oh boy. Now how are we gonna do it? Yeah. What was appealing in the beginning is I was coming from software with that lean and mean idea, like small team, big margins, and when we were talking about kit Caster or what would become kit Caster, it became apparent very early on that the way you scale this business is with butts and seats. This is old school, we're going to create jobs. We're going to create a culture as much as I've been scared away from that with the rise of B2B SaaS. It sounded really welcoming. I think I was kind of like lonely. The idea of building a culture was really appealing. As Ryan said, it's people and we wanted to make sure that we were being very thoughtful and not only our approach internally but externally, how are we presenting ourselves? We don't want 15 different team members reaching out to the same podcast. So how do we track all that information and make sure that it's organized and that we're not duplicating efforts and people are able to work efficiently and effectively and also figuring out the best way to connect with podcast hosts. We set the task of like, okay, we know what we gotta do. We're connecting top performers, startup founders with great podcast hosts. What's the tool to do it? Early on, we use Trello. I think what we saw early on is essentially our podcast agents are kind of sales guys, and sales gals, like they're pitching, in this case, a conversation, and then either closed one, closed lost, or no response. So finding tools that kind of worked in a sales capacity was where we started to lean towards and ultimately how we made decisions on the tools. Knowing a little bit from my traditional PR background, working primarily with journalists and podcast hosts are kind of journalists, but but it is a different beast. Do you consider yourself a journalist Noah? I see the parallels, but I don't consider myself a journalist. Maybe I am, never been called one? You are. And that's the thing, you know, coming from that world where that's who you're interacting with. And it is essentially it's.

"Find a better way to grow your podcast by being a guest on other people's podcasts. So I'm really, really stoked about that. Also, if you want Brandi's full bio, it's in the show notes. I mentioned this all the time on this podcast. Being dyslexic, it is not fun for me to try to read through somebody's long bio. And I don't think you want to hear it either. So just scroll down if you'd like to read it yourself. You're probably going to read a lot better than I could anyway. Brandy. Number one, I want to give you a little bit of accolades for a couple things. Number one, first and foremost, just the attitude that you come with in business. When I was on your podcast, I just felt so comfortable being interviewed by you. You're so genuine and warm. And I really appreciated that. And then I totally effed up and I was like, at least ten minutes late on this podcast episode. And I felt so bad, but you have just been so genuine and awesome. And I really think that that type of behavior says a lot about a person on how they work with somebody when stuff hits the fan. Huge shout out to you there. The second one is there are many podcast agencies out there. Not just yours. What I've noticed is different about yours is some of the agencies that I've worked with. And I work with most of my team is in the Philippines. And so I fully love and respect working with people from the Philippines. I think they do a great job. And it's obvious that we can save money when we hire an employee people from overseas because it's just a totally different world. Like cost of living is so expensive and New York and Denver and some of these other places. So I just want to give you second props and shout outs that you've actually even though you charge about the same. And even less than some companies that are making that bigger profit margin, you actually employ all people from Denver. And on top of that, they all have benefits. So that's something that I think needs to be highlighted in the beginning. With that all said, let's find out from you, like, what are you doing in order to get people booked on podcasts? Because I'm hoping that if we can't afford, if for any reason we're not at that place where we're like, hey, I'll pay you to book me. And we want to book ourselves. What are the takeaways that are going to.

"Podcasting is a different medium. If you've done traditional media training, podcasting is a 30 to 60 minute conversation. So how do you weave some of your personal narrative? What have you done in your career and your life? What are you aspiring to do in the future? How do you weave all that together? Most hosts never achieve the results they hoped for. They're falling short on listenership and monetization, meaning their message isn't being heard and their show ends up costing them money. This podcast was created to help you grow your listenership and make money while you're at it. Get ready to take notes. Here's your host, Adam Adams. And we're back with another episode of podcast on podcasting. And today I have brandy on the podcast. It's waylon, right? Am I saying it right? You got it. I'm the worst dyslexic reader. And I second guess anything. And so that was me 5 seconds ago. I'm like, dang it, I should have asked. You did great. So we're with brandy waylon. And one cool thing is that she's one of the cofounders of a company that you might want to work with if you're trying to get booked on lots of other podcasts. They really crush it at that. And we're going to be talking about getting you on other podcasts. Whether you do it yourself or if you work with a PR agency, you're definitely going to be learning some tips and tricks on how to get your voice out on other podcasts. Now it's interesting because just like last week we're recording for hers to be on the blog and one of the things that we talked about is if you want to grow your podcast if you want to get your name out and start doing the two reasons why you even started your podcast in the first place. Reason number one is because you wanted to grow your influence. Reason number two is you wanted to make an impact. Because of those two things you're going to fail if you don't get in front of people. Like if you just have a podcast, but nobody listens, you don't make an impact. You don't make an income. Do you have nothing? And so you need to find a way to solve that problem. And I found that literally the number one way that I've grown my influence is by getting on other people's podcasts and being able to have those collaborative times where you're getting your voice out in front of other people's audiences. And that's literally what brandy specializes in what her company specializes in. It's called Caster. You can find it at kit kaster dot com. By the way, all the links are in the show notes.

"In college week black union widows had trouble claiming their benefits after the civil war. I'm dr lynn. Pascarella president of the association of american colleges and universities and today on the academic minute brandy brimmer associate professor in the department of history discusses their postwar battle after the american civil war. Newly freed black women made up one of the largest groups of union widows across the south yet their struggle for recognition by the federal pension bureau remains an understudy dimension of the war and its aftermath. My research analyzes the processes by which black women in eastern north carolina their views a citizenship in worthiness to the us pincher bureau their petitions for survivors benefits and the first person testimony of those who supported them painting vivid picture of their survival strategies free labor society in claiming the pensions to which they were in principle entitled. These women challenge the bureau's definition of union widowhood and expand the boundaries of us citizenship. The pension bureau distributed monetary resources to widows children and other dependent relatives of soldiers through a legal structure that required proof of marriage in evidence of war related that since marriages of enslaved people were neither authorized nor effectuation through legal routes. It was nearly impossible for formerly enslaved women to secure pension benefits federal lawmakers eventually address this problem through the supplementary pension act of july fourth eighteen sixty four which retroactively recognize the marriages formulates lay people within the pension system still a tedious and complicated application limited economic resources and competing definitions of what constituted. A legal marriage made security pension difficult. Maintaining they're standing on the pension roster could be just as intense scrutiny over how a widow earn wages notions of what constituted a proper family and sexual respectability became central points of contention at the end of the war. Freed women across the south said about filing petitions for survivors benefits with great frequency. They rested their claims on their contributions. To slavery's demise and their loved ones military service shining the light on their struggle for recognition underscores black women's legal acumen and understanding of the pension bureau as an arena of activism and redress.
