I was just interested in it as a story.” (09:12)“Having a dad who’s a reporter can be a little hard sometimes. I feel like, as a kid, he was always finding the storyline, running through things that I thought were large problems that he thought he could really simply. And sometimes you don’t really want your problems to be simplified.” (14:20)“I would call myself a fairly early podcast junkie. I’ve been excited to see how podcasts have expanded because in the early days they related a lot to the same kind of topics that were for that early adopter audience.” (18:49)“At a startup you can dream up ideas, make them come true – engineering willing – and have two people use them. And at Google, you can dream up ideas, make endless decks about what they could be and potentially be able to do them on a much bigger scale.” (28:20)“Local [news] is something that we value very highly and are working to understand how we can help those local outlets, how we can recognize the new and emerging local outlets and how we can just connect our users to them.” (35:58)“That is my pitch is that your podcast doesn’t need to be two hours long, news or not.” (46:55)“Here’s my hill to die on. Everyone is a news reader. Everyone’s interested in the news. I know that the news can be overwhelming and that you want to turn it off sometimes and look inward. But, knowing what’s going on in the world around you is important.” (54:12)THANK YOU SPONSORS!Focusrite FullCastLINKS MENTIONED*FullCast Website *Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook GroupLiz's LinkedInLiz's TwitterLink to Molly of Denali Podcast Link to Rabbit Hole Podcast Link to Season of the Witch Book ?Podcast Production & Marketing by FullCast
