Send us feedback/questions via TextFirst up, I share some behind-the-scenes updates, including my recent move from a lifetime video hosting deal that went south to Voomly, and how AI tools like ChatGPT are helping me generate show notes and summaries more efficiently. We also discuss the mysterious rise of EM dashes in AI-generated writing—did anyone use them before AI took over our grammar?We talk about what's happening at Libsyn, including some big changes in leadership and strategy, and my insider thoughts about their direction and features (or lack thereof). If you're as confused about Descript's new billing system as I am, you're not alone!

Send us a textWhat if the safest career move right now is the one that looks riskiest on paper? We sit down with Joe Pulizzi, author of Burn the Playbook, to unpack why synthetic content is rising, why the algorithm favors cheap efficiency over human craft, and how creators and marketers can still win by building audiences they truly own. The stakes are real: job security is fragile, feeds are optimized for cost, and the window to establish direct relationships is closing faster than most realize.Joe lays out a clear path from uncertainty to ownership. We explore how to move beyond platform dependency and invest in durable channels—email, podcasts, in-person gatherings, and even print—that foster human-to-human connection. You'll hear why “we don't build factories anymore, we build audiences,” how a small base of true fans can power freedom and optionality, and the many ways a creator can monetize without losing integrity: sponsorships, memberships, ticketed events, premium communities, and productized knowledge. We also tackle the artist-versus-seller myth and show how leaning into your unique tilt is the most defensible moat in an AI-heavy world.If you're stuck at start, we break it down: list ten curiosities, recombine two into a distinctive niche, pick the medium you can sustain, and commit to a consistent cadence. Use AI as an assistant to repurpose and polish, not to replace your voice. Along the way, Joe shares personal lessons on exits, compounding trust, and why creators often support each other more than any corporate ladder ever will. Ready to stop renting attention and start owning your future? Press play, then tell us the one asset you'll build this week—and if this conversation helps, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review.This episode was recorded through a Descript call on November 6, 2025.

Send us a textImagine boosting engagement by 400% without changing your product, only your story. That's the promise Park Howell delivers as we dive into why audiences don't care about what you make—they care about what you make happen in their lives. Park, an Emmy-winning business storytelling coach and author of Brand Bewitchery and The Narrative Gym for Business, breaks down the ABT framework—And, But, Therefore—and shows how it turns intuitive storytellers into intentional communicators who move people to act.We explore the most significant mistake even seasoned marketers make: telling stories from the brand's point of view. Park reframes the job with crisp language and practical examples, revealing how ABT aligns perfectly with the brain's preference for agreement, contradiction, and consequences. You'll hear why outcomes beat offerings, how to embed emotion with “because,” and how ABT builds trust through understanding, appreciation, and empathy. Then we scale from message to strategy with Park's 10-step Story Cycle System, adapted from the Hero's Journey and shaped for modern brands.For leaders navigating Web3 and AI, clarity is the new competitive edge. We talk through audience triggers for traditional CEOs and CMOs—fear of complexity, demand for ROI, desire to be future-ready—and show how to turn vague tech buzz into practical, measurable growth. Park also introduces Story Cycle Genie, an AI-powered platform that audits your current story, identifies gaps, and drafts ABTs, positioning, and value propositions in hours instead of months, keeping your content on brand and on brain.If you want story frameworks that work in pitches, decks, emails, and everyday conversations, this conversation gives you the tools and the language. Subscribe, share with a colleague who needs sharper messaging, and leave a quick review to help more marketers discover the power of ABT.This episode was recorded through a Descript call on October 28, 2025.

Thank you to Anii Hoang from The Aspiring CMO podcast for letting me share this episode with you! In my journey with Seven Million Bikes Podcasts, a pivotal moment emerged when a talented marketing graduate posted on Facebook, expressing her eagerness to contribute blogs for her portfolio. Our initial conversation left me astounded by her vigor, expertise, and most significantly, her knowledge, particularly in domains like SEO, domain authority, and content crafting. As the world gradually reopened after the lockdown, a face-to-face meeting over coffee deepened her advice to focus my efforts onto a singular endeavor for bolstered domain authority and SEO impact. Despite this counsel, I found myself clinging to Seven Million Bikes' multi-dimensional identity, encompassing podcasts, comedy, and events.The alliance sparked by the aforementioned graduate not only endured but blossomed into an inspiring narrative of growth. Anii, the graduate, has since carved her own path of accomplishment, establishing her podcast and YouTube channel, aptly named The Aspiring CMO (Chief Marketing Officer). This platform serves as a repository for insights drawn from genuine experiences, narratives, and individuals within the realms of marketing and entrepreneurship. My admiration for Anii's content is palpable, culminating in a symbiotic exchange. She graciously invited me to her show as a guest, symbolizing the intersection of our journeys and the transformation of our individual pursuits into shared triumphs.Send us a textEmail me (niall@sevenmillionbikes.com) or contact me on Seven Million Bikes Podcasts Facebook or Instagram to book your free Podcast Audit!Thanks to James Mastroianni from The Wrong Side Of Hollywood for the endorsement!

“The reason I'm putting on a podcast is because I want to listen. I don't want to read about the hosts - I want you to tell me about you.” — Adrie Mackay Today I'm doing something a little bit different. You're about to hear an episode from my other show, Smarter Podcasting, where my wife Adrie joins me to talk about what she looks for in a podcast  So if you ever thought. I could do that, but I don't know how, then this episode's for you.  If you do wanna start your own podcast, then go and subscribe to Smarter Podcasting as well. In this show I share all my tips and tricks and failures along the way to help you make the best podcast possible.   This episode is easily one of my favorites - not because of the guest (though she is my wife), but because I finally got to hear the raw, honest perspective of a real podcast listener. Adrie isn't in the industry; she doesn't care about gear or metrics. She just loves great stories, good sound, and shows that respect her time.Listening to her describe how she chooses podcasts, where she listens, and what makes her switch off reminded me that every podcaster needs to think more like a listener. This conversation changed the way I look at intros, ads, and even how people interact with Spotify. If you want to know how your audience really experiences your show — this is the episode to listen to.5 Key Talking PointsListeners crave connection. They tune in to people, not just topics.Bad audio kills interest instantly — even more than weak content.The first two minutes decide everything.

“It was silly then, and it's become sillier now, the idea that if you build it, they will come.” – Joni DeutschWhen Joni said that, it really hit home. So many podcasters (including me, in the early days) believe that great content alone will attract an audience.

Your health data belongs to you—but how can you share it safely? Fabienne Bourgeois, MD, exposes the complex truth about privacy, permissions, and data control. Summary According to Fabienne Bourgeois, MD, patients want control over their health data, but privacy preferences and constant changes complicate this. The discussion is relevant to people with disabilities, caregivers, and others navigating complex health information. About 80% of people share common privacy concerns that current systems can't address. The remaining 20% need more detailed controls and customization, though balancing autonomy with privacy remains challenging. Ownership means individuals have the right to participate in research and make informed choices. They need "digital intermediaries"— professionals who assist with data sharing—and genuinely intuitive interfaces. Privacy protections must remain a top priority as health and AI tools continue to develop. Click here to view the printable newsletter with images.

October was nonstop. I was in Hershey, Pittsburgh, and New York twice, and on every single trip, there was a transportation curveball. SEPTA canceled trains, Amtrak was late, ride shares were pricey or didn't show, and I even had to cross a four-lane road in Pittsburgh with no traffic light. I still made it to Dancing in the Dark, the PATTAN Tech Adventures event, the Blind Travel Foundation fundraiser, and Laugh for Sight, picking up ideas for our NFB of PA state convention along the way. I talk about why I lean toward Lyft, how arthritis makes travel trickier, and why sponsors need to jump in now. Plus, Ziggy got drenched in the rain and I still recorded from Studio B this week.

Recorded live in Banff at The Gathering 2025, this special on-location episode of The Sleeping Barber Podcast brings together three conversations and a recap from hosts Vassilis Douros and Marc Binkley.The episode explores how belonging, creativity, and technology are shaping the next chapter of marketing — from AI and the creator economy to the deeper values that connect brands and people.Ryan Gill, co-founder of The Gathering and Cult, shares the philosophy behind the event's enduring success and what it takes to preserve its soul as it grows. His perspective on leadership, belonging, and the responsibility of “being good guests” in Banff underscores a broader lesson for marketers — scale only matters if it deepens connection.Vanessa Hope Schneider, Head of Marketing at Descript, reframes AI not as a threat but as a creative ally. She challenges marketers to take an “AI vacation” — dedicating uninterrupted time to learn and experiment — and reminds us that curiosity, not fear, should guide adoption. Her examples of AI co-creation, from “vibe-coded” design tools to custom GPTs for audience personas, reveal how AI can amplify human creativity rather than replace it.Caroline Murphy, CMO of Meta4 Interactive, takes us inside the evolving world of in-game brand experiences. She describes how brands can authentically show up inside ecosystems like Fortnite and Roblox by co-creating with gamers, designing “playable stories” that enhance — not interrupt — gameplay. It's a new kind of “digital physical availability,” meeting audiences where they already live, play, and connect.Together, these conversations capture the evolving state of marketing: human connection grounded in creativity, powered by technology, and measured by meaning — not just metrics.Timestamps00:00 – Welcome to The Gathering 2025 in Banff, Alberta02:10 – Reflections on connection, belonging, and “no badge attacks”05:35 – The state of marketing effectiveness & long-term partnerships09:25 – Ryan Gill on scaling connection without losing soul16:40 – Leadership, values & “unreasonable hospitality”22:50 – Vanessa Hope Schneider on AI, creativity & taking an “AI vacation”31:00 – Coexisting with AI — where humans add the magic36:40 – Carolyn Murphy on the creator economy & in-game brand storytelling44:10 – How brands show up authentically in Roblox & Fortnite51:15 – Measurement, co-creation, and the next era of engagement

“The reason I'm putting on a podcast is because I want to listen. I don't want to read about the hosts - I want you to tell me about you.” — Adrie MackayThis episode is easily one of my favorites — not because of the guest (though she is my wife), but because I finally got to hear the raw, honest perspective of a real podcast listener. Adrie isn't in the industry; she doesn't care about gear or metrics. She just loves great stories, good sound, and shows that respect her time.Listening to her describe how she chooses podcasts, where she listens, and what makes her switch off reminded me that every podcaster needs to think more like a listener. This conversation changed the way I look at intros, ads, and even how people interact with Spotify.

They tune in to people, not just topics.Bad audio kills interest instantly — even more than weak content.The first two minutes decide everything.

Send us a textWhat happens when you stop treating crypto like a lottery ticket and start treating it like money? We sit down with Joël Valenzuela – core member of DashDAO and creator of Digital Cash Network – who has lived entirely on cryptocurrency since 2015, closed his bank account, and built a daily routine on digital cash.Joel takes us from childhood memories of currency devaluation in Mexico to the first time he split a dinner bill with Bitcoin before payment apps were mainstream. He explains why speculation can't sustain an ecosystem, how real-world utility creates lasting value, and what investors learn by actually using the product. We explore the bumpy parts too: 2016 fee spikes, network congestion, and the practical decision to move day-to-day spending to Dash for instant settlement, optional privacy, and on-chain scaling that aims to keep payments fast and affordable.We also dive into decentralization that works in practice. Joel outlines the limits of leaderless governance on major networks and why DAOs matter for transparent, network-wide decision-making and funding. Then we zoom out to the Free State Project in New Hampshire, the unlikely incubator where early crypto pioneers swapped ideas, launched tools, and helped shape a payments-first culture long before it trended. Along the way, Joel shares how legacy projects stay relevant through integrations, liquidity, and partnerships that compound over time.If you've wondered whether crypto can move beyond charts and narratives to something you can actually live on, this conversation delivers hard-won lessons from the checkout line.

The Podcast Superfriends discuss the recent AWS outage and its widespread impact on digital services and podcasting tools. The group shares personal experiences of how the outage disrupted their workflow, affecting platforms like Riverside, Descript, and Streamyard. They emphasize the importance of having backup strategies for podcast production, including maintaining multiple copies of recordings, using alternative recording methods like Google Meet, returning to the days of "double-enders" and having pre-recorded episodes ready. The conversation explores practical solutions for potential technical disasters, such as using external hard drives, cloud storage, and backup internet options like Starlink.

From the origin of RYO as Japan's historic symbol of trust to its rebirth as a modern digital currency, we trace a clear through-line: make crypto simple, human, and useful.We dig into RYOPAY's pilot with Grain X Global, where grain shipments settle near-instantly once delivery is confirmed, cutting weeks of bank delays and lowering fees for farmers and buyers. That same settlement layer can power real estate, auto, and global trade—anywhere speed and auditability matter. Then we shift to Life Wallet, a non-custodial app on iOS designed to feel familiar: hold your keys, chat, send assets, connect to social, and soon shop through the global mall or cash in/out via Japan's first FSA-licensed crypto ATM network. Android is on the way, and RYOPAY will integrate for stable, predictable checkout.We also introduce RYO-CHAN, an AI companion inspired by a real schnauzer, built to guide users through safer Web3 interactions—flagging smart contract risks, offering portfolio tips, and bringing education and rewards into one friendly experience. Beyond products, Lani shares a candid look at building under Japan's toughest compliance standards and the Japan Revival campaign—a manga-led movement celebrating trust, quality, and ownership as Web3's north star.If you're ready for crypto that works in the real world—payments you can rely on, tools that reduce risk, and an ecosystem grounded in integrity—this conversation is your roadmap.

Send us a textImagine algorithms that feel more attentive than people – always patient, never tired, and ready with the perfect follow‑up question. That illusion of empathy is already shaping how buyers research, decide, and stay loyal. We sit down with Mark Schaefer to unpack the human side of AI: cognitive offloading at scale, de‑skilling that changes how customers think, and what it means when assistants default to a single recommendation instead of a page of links.We dig into the new rules of discoverability and why text‑rich content, precise transcripts, and entity clarity now carry outsized weight with large language models. Mark explains why PR is having a renaissance as AI shifts from counting backlinks to interpreting authoritative mentions, and how urgency matters because early movers will lock in the default answers. We also explore the power of overrides—those human factors that still trump machine suggestions – like word‑of‑mouth, brand preference, and community trust that carries through to the moment of choice.The conversation moves beyond tactics to tackle a looming trust crisis. Deepfakes, synthetic media, and frictionless misinformation demand visible transparency: provenance for assets, clear disclosures, and rapid response playbooks. Yet there's optimism here. With daily experimentation and a strong learning community, founders and teams can use AI to compress go‑to‑market cycles, scale real empathy in service, and design products faster – without losing the human touch that makes brands memorable and resilient.If you're ready to future‑proof your marketing while staying deeply human, this one's for you.
