In this episode of the Ecomm Breakthrough Podcast, host Josh Hadley discusses why judgment is the most valuable skill he looks for when hiring. Drawing from his experience scaling an ecommerce brand to eight figures, Josh explains that while AI can efficiently handle repetitive tasks, human judgment remains irreplaceable for making sound decisions with incomplete information. He outlines four key indicators of good judgment, shares a Steve Jobs story about ruthless prioritization, and warns against over-relying on AI for strategic thinking, emphasizing that wrestling with difficult decisions is what sharpens judgment over time.Bullet Points:Importance of judgment as a key skill in hiring team members.Distinction between judgment and execution in business success.Role of AI in handling repetitive tasks and its limitations in decision-making.Characteristics of good judgment, including decision-making with incomplete information.Indicators of individuals with good judgment, such as driving results and identifying constraints.The significance of focus and prioritization in achieving impactful outcomes.Learning from experience and feedback to develop judgment within a team.The necessity of saying no to less important tasks to maintain focus.The example of Steve Jobs simplifying Apple's product line to illustrate effective judgment.Caution against over-reliance on AI for strategic thinking and decision-making.Timestamps:00:00:00 The Most Valuable Skill in HiringThe host introduces judgment as the single most valuable skill he looks for when hiring new team members.00:00:58 Execution vs. JudgmentBusiness success shifts from execution to judgment, which involves making critical decisions on pricing, products, data, and team management.00:02:09 AI's Role in ExecutionAI is excellent at executing repetitive, process-driven tasks, making human executors less necessary in modern business operations.00:04:21 The Value of Human ExperienceHiring smart individuals brings valuable experience, including lessons learned from past failures, which builds strong judgment for the team.00:06:57 Defining JudgmentJudgment is making solid decisions with incomplete information, unlike intelligence. It's about knowing what to do and what to ignore.00:09:13 How to Identify Good JudgmentKey indicators of good judgment include a track record of results, identifying constraints, focusing on impactful tasks, and acting decisively.00:13:02 Developing Judgment in Your TeamDevelop team judgment through experience, creating feedback loops for learning from wins and losses, and teaching them to say no.00:15:23 The Importance of Learning from ExperienceTeam members must have a feedback loop to articulate why something worked or didn't, and then refine systems accordingly.00:17:26 The Power of Saying NoGood judgment involves prioritizing the few key tasks that drive results and saying no to less important initiatives.00:18:30 The Steve Jobs and Apple StorySteve Jobs simplified Apple's complex product line to just four core products, demonstrating judgment by focusing on what truly mattered.00:21:59 Busyness Doesn't Equal ResultsActivity and being busy do not guarantee success. The focus must be on whether the work is producing meaningful business results.00:26:09 The Leader's Role in JudgmentA leader's job is to ensure the team works on what matters, not just completing tasks, and to stop unproductive projects.00:29:39 A Warning: AI Can Weaken Your JudgmentOver-relying on AI for strategic thinking and communication can weaken a leader's own judgment by removing necessary mental friction.Links and Mentions:Tools and Technologies  "Claude": "00:03:12"Concepts and Ideas  "SOPs": "00:02:09"  "AI as an executor": "00:03:12"  "Feedback loop": "00:15:23"  "411 meetings": "00:16:28"Examples and Anecdotes  "Steve Jobs and Apple": "00:20:54"Key Takeaways  "Judgment vs. Execution": "00:06:57"  "Identifying constraints": "00:10:21"Recommendations  "Hiring for judgment": "00:13:02"Transcript:Josh Hadley 00:00:00  I'm going to share the single most valuable skill that I look for when I hire someone today, and more importantly, how you can develop more of it within the team that you already have. Welcome to the Ecomm Breakthrough Podcast, I'm Josh Hadley. I've scaled my own ecommerce brand from 0 to 8 figures, and I'm actively building towards nine figures in sales. This podcast is where I document that journey and share the systems, the strategies, and the lessons learned in real time so that you can learn what actually matters and scale your own business. My name is Josh Hadley. First and foremost, I'm a man of faith. I'm a husband to a beautiful wife and the father of four children. I've been selling in the e-commerce space for over a decade now, doing over $20 million in annual revenue in multi-million on channels such as Amazon, TikTok, Shop and Shopify. And I am also the host of the number one business strategy podcast for ecommerce entrepreneurs, Ecomm Breakthrough. Today, I'm going to share why judgment is the number one skill that you should be looking for whenever you hire someone.Josh Hadley 00:00:58  Look, at the end of the day, you can have all the SOPs, the dashboards, the data and the right team, but still make the wrong call because at a certain level of business, business stops being about execution and it starts being about judgment. Knowing when to raise prices, knowing when to kill a product, when to trust data or not, when to ignore it, and when to coach someone versus when to you need to replace them. That is where the real money is made or lost in business. So today we're going to dive into like what this skill of judgment is and why I am so adamant about hiring for this and why it's the number one skill that I am looking for in any of my team members today. The reason why I am so adamant that judgment is one of the most important skills that you should be looking for and developing in your team is because with the advent of AI, I think that execution layer in any business is almost becoming extinct. And if you are employing people that need to just go execute tasks for you, I would say you've got it completely backwards.Josh Hadley 00:02:09  And honestly, if that's the reason why you're hiring a lot of people is just because you have so many tasks and they just need to be handed off to someone else, maybe it's a virtual assistant or something like that. That can be good. Yes. I'm very proud of you for getting things off of your plate. However, with AI, that's what it's so good at. AI is a great executor. If you have a process that is always follow x, y, then z. And by the way, don't ever deviate from that. Always make sure you do x, then y, then z. I would give that to AI all day long. And honestly, that's how I started my business. The first people that I were was hiring in the business was just to go follow a very repeatable process, because that's what I needed. I needed people to take things off of my plate. And so, yes, if that's what you're used to hiring for is getting things off your plate, creating a whole bunch of SOPs and giving it to other team members, I would say yes, that's a step in the ri...

1428.  Los costes de un podcast no terminan cuando compras un micrófono y pulsas por primera vez el botón de grabar, de hecho, sólo acaban de empezar. Esa es la que plantea un artículo publicado en Content Marketing Mag con un título bastante directo: empezar a hacer podcasts no es caro, lo caro es mantenerlo.Podcasting isn't expensive to start – it's expensive to keep goinghttps://www.marketingmag.com.au/featured/podcasting-isnt-expensive-to-start-its-expensive-to-keep-going/El texto plantea que montar un equipo básico puede suponer una inversión inicial de entre 400 y 1.000 dólares (australianos) utilizando micrófonos para podcast, un par de iPhones como cámaras, un kit de iluminación sencillo y un sofá. Reconozco que algunas de esas cuentas me extrañan un poco, porque solo algunos micrófonos y luces ya pueden acercarse bastante a esos precios. Pero la parte que me interesa de verdad viene después.Una vez puesto en marcha el proyecto aparecen los gastos recurrentes. El artículo habla de entre 100 y 250 dólares (australianos) al mes en un nivel básico, una cifra que me resulta más fácil de entender. Porque producir un podcast no consiste únicamente en comprar equipo: hay que grabar, editar, publicar, mantener una periodicidad y dedicar tiempo a que cada episodio llegue a la audiencia y esa es la gran clave, el tiempo.Cuando el proyecto quiere crecer, la escala cambia. Si además se incorpora estrategia, producción, gestión de redes sociales, un especialista en YouTube y un volumen real de vídeo, el artículo sitúa el coste entre 5.000 y 15.000 dólares mensuales. Ya no estamos hablando de sentarse delante de un micrófono, sino de construir una maquinaria de contenidos alrededor del podcast que es muy distinto.También aparece la monetización. El texto señala que el dinero importante empieza cerca de las 50.000 descargas y que incluso podcasts con 50.000 o 60.000 descargas pueden seguir sin conseguir patrocinadores si las marcas consideran insuficiente su alcance. Es un buen recordatorio de algo que repito muchas veces: publicar un podcast y convertirlo en un negocio rentable son dos cuestiones muy diferentes. También incluye ejemplos de proyectos que han utilizado el podcast como una pieza de una estrategia empresarial más amplia, incluso con casos que alcanzaron 100.000 visualizaciones mensuales en seis meses y multiplicaron su negocio. Esa parte me interesa porque desplaza la conversación del patrocinio puro hacia el valor que un podcast puede generar alrededor de una marca.En este episodio utilizo esas cifras para hablar de lo que cuesta realmente mantener un proyecto en el tiempo. Se puede empezar con poco, claro que si, pero la constancia, la producción y la promoción tienen un coste aunque muchas veces no aparezca en la factura inicial.Por eso, cuando alguien me pregunta cuánto cuesta hacer un podcast, tengo muy claro que la pregunta importante no es cuánto cuesta arrancarlo. La pregunta es cuánto estás dispuesto a invertir, en dinero, en trabajo y en tiempo, para seguir publicándolo dentro de seis meses, un año o varios años. _____________ ¡Gracias por pasarte 'Al otro lado del micrófono' un día más para seguir aprendiendo sobre podcasting!

This is the 73rd episode in my drug pronunciation series. In this episode, I divide hydrochlorothiazide into syllables, tell you which syllables to emphasize, list my sources, and introduce some bonus topics: one pronunciation variation and two abbreviations.    Why did I pick hydrochlorothiazide for this episode? It is frequently prescribed. It's a long, intimidating drug name. It is found in combination with other blood pressure medications. It's a drug name in my pronunciation course, which ends in December 2026.    There are still more than 50 drug names in the course that have not been part of the pronunciation series. It is my goal to include all 50+ in the drug pronunciation series eventually.    ❌ We don't cover pharmacology in this series. Just pronunciations.   ⭐️ Sign up for The Pharmacist's Voice ® monthly email newsletter! https://bit.ly/3AHJIaF ⭐️   Hydrochlorothiazide = HYE-droe-KLOR-oh-THYE-a-zide (7 syllables) HYE, like high blood pressure droe, like a drone KLOR, like chloride  oh, like the letter "O" in the alphabet THYE, like the body part, thigh a, which is a short "A" sound, like the "a" in adoption (uh) zide, which rhymes with tide, as in the ocean tide Emphasize HYE, KLOR, and THYE. THYE gets the most emphasis.  Written pronunciation source: MedlinePlus.gov  Spoken pronunciation example: Tony PharmD HCTZ pronunciation (YouTube)   Pronunciation Variation As an Ohio Pharmacist, I tend to say HYE-droe-KLOR-uh-THYE-a-zide instead of HYE-droe-KLOR-oh-THYE-a-zide. They sound VERY similar. The difference is "uh" vs "oh." Either spoken pronunciation will pass as correct. They're both "in the ballpark."   Two abbreviations HCTZ HCT   If you know someone who would like to learn how to say hydrochlorothiazide, please share this episode with them.

We'll be honest; we both spent a good chunk of the 2000s watching grown men sit down at a kitchen table they'd regret, and neither of us thought much about the man holding the clipboard. Primetime, the narrative debut from Ren Faire documentarian Lance Oppenheim, does — casting Robert Pattinson as Chris Hansen, the Dateline correspondent who turned sting operations into appointment television. Bryan found it a mess; Chris found it a compelling one. However, we both left asking the same question: what does it tell us about predators, or the man with the clipboard, that the show didn't tell us first?The Kulturecast's Chris Stachiw and Movie Meltdown's Bryan Renfro meet in the middle for Kulture Meltdown to talk Oppenheim, Pattinson, To Catch a Predator, and so much more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kulturecast--2883470/support.———The Kulturecast is a film and culture podcast from Weirding Way Media, hosted by Chris Stachiw, the Doctor of Podcasting, alongside a rotating table of guest co-hosts.

It's been since New Year's Eve since I sat behind this mic.A lot has happened since then. My dad died. My world changed. And somewhere in the middle of grief, loneliness, unanswered questions, changing friendships, and trying to figure out how the hell you're supposed to keep living when someone who was such a huge part of your life is suddenly gone… I found myself needing this space again.So, on International Podcasting Day, I'm back where it all started: talking shit, sharing my truth, and saying the things we don't always know how to say out loud.In this episode, I'm talking about grief in all its awkward, messy, confusing glory. About missing my best friend. About feeling let down by people I thought would show up. About the pressure to “move on” when I'm still learning how to exist in a world without my dad in it.And because September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, we're also going there. The uncomfortable conversation. The one about suicidal thoughts, loneliness, asking for help, and why sometimes “I'm here if you need anything” isn't enough. Sometimes you have to actually be there.This episode isn't polished. It isn't tied up with a pretty little bow. And honestly? It wasn't supposed to be.It's grief. It's love. It's anger. It's loneliness. It's dark humor. It's Dad. It's me trying to keep going.And maybe most importantly, it's a reminder to call your people. Check on your people. Make time for your parents. Say the shit you think you'll have time to say later. Because this life shit isn't guaranteed. ❤️‍

Ceasar Cordon is the outside business development director at Fifth Gear Automotive in North Texas. He entered the automotive industry in 2017 after working in electronics and gained experience in shop management and service advising before moving into business development. At Fifth Gear, he leads a team that builds referral relationships with other repair shops, a channel he says influences approximately 35% of the organization's revenue. His perspective on auto repair shop expansion combines customer service experience with the practical work of reaching new markets.In this episode…Reaching customers in another city does not always require building another repair shop. Fifth Gear Automotive uses satellite service centers to establish a local presence while sending vehicles to existing shops for the actual work.Cordon describes permitting barriers in North Texas that made traditional expansion difficult. The company borrowed the operating model of a dry cleaner: customers use a convenient local storefront, and the service happens elsewhere. Customers also arrange vehicle pickup through these satellite locations.For owners planning their next location, the immediate decision is where to add customer access and where to add repair capacity. Those investments serve different purposes. Cordon reports that some satellite locations receive very little foot traffic, yet their local presence helps generate calls from customers who prefer a business in their own city.The lower overhead comes with operational responsibilities. Vehicles need transportation, calls need ownership, and customers need accurate expectations. Fifth Gear assigns satellite inquiries to an experienced service advisor who understands what its shops deliver. The storefront creates access; the existing operation still has to fulfill the promise.Here's a glimpse of what you'll learn: [01:31] Ceasar Cordon's experience in shop operations and business development[03:54] Building customer trust through clear repair recommendations[06:48] Fifth Gear's specialization in major repairs[09:15] Fifth Gear's satellite model for auto repair shop expansion[15:47] Extending market reach through shop referral partnerships[19:19] Coaching service advisors to convert calls into shop visitsResources mentioned in this episode:Fifth Gear Automotive on LinkedInFifth Gear Automotive WebsiteTread PartnersGain Traction Podcast on YouTubeGain Traction Podcast WebsiteMike Edge on LinkedInQuotable Moments:“We aren't the cheapest, and that's fine.”“We don't know what we don't know, and we're okay with that.”“You overpromise, underdeliver, and that's never what you want to do.”Action Steps:Map one potential satellite market. Plot your existing shops and identify a nearby area you want to serve. Use Fifth Gear's reported five-to-seven-mile range as a starting point for your own evaluation. Check actual drive times and vehicle transport requirements before selecting a location.Separate customer access from repair capacity in your expansion budget. Build a side-by-side estimate for a reception-only satellite and a full repair facility. Include staffing and vehicle transportation in the satellite estimate. Ground your auto repair shop expansion plan in the capacity your existing shops have available.Assign an experienced advisor to satellite inquiries. Choose someone who understands your repair capabilities and internal processes. Document who owns each customer's call, transportation arrangements, and repair updates so the handoff between locations stays clear.Review customer calls with your service advisors. Schedule a session this week and listen to calls that resulted in appointments alongside calls that did not. Identify one specific response to improve, practice it together, and check its use in the next review.Start a focused referral outreach list. Identify nearby shops that do not handle the major repairs your team performs. Contact their managers to explain your capabilities and establish a clear referral contact. Give them a practical reason to trust you with work they send out.

1427. El feedback de septiembre vuelve a ser protagonista en este último episodio del mes, una entrega en la que quiero detenerme a recoger, agradecer y responder algunos de los comentarios que me habéis hecho llegar durante las últimas semanas alrededor de Al otro lado del micrófono.Antes de entrar en ellos, empiezo con una pequeña fe de erratas. En el episodio dedicado al décimo aniversario de Podium Podcast dije 16 de octubre cuando debía decir 16 de septiembre. Y en el capítulo sobre los 20 podcasts para seguir a los 20 equipos de la Liga hablé de Florentino Fernández cuando, evidentemente, me refería a Florentino Pérez. Dos errores que quería dejar corregidos también por aquí. También aprovecho este cierre de septiembre para agradecer a los compañeros de Fivecast el apoyo que están dando al podcast desde el inicio de esta temporada. No solamente a través de Ko-fi, sino también compartiendo cada día los episodios. Es una de esas ayudas que quizá desde fuera parecen pequeñas, pero que para quien publica un podcast diario tienen muchísimo valor. A partir de ahí llega lo mejor: vuestros mensajes. En este repaso aparecen comentarios recibidos en distintas plataformas y relacionados con varios episodios recientes. Hay respuestas sobre podcasting, recomendaciones que han servido para descubrir otros programas y conversaciones que continúan después de que yo cierre el micrófono. Precisamente esa es una de las cosas que más me gustan de publicar cada día: comprobar que el episodio no termina necesariamente cuando acaba el audio.Entre los mensajes del mes recupero también las reacciones a mi recomendación de Catástrofe Ultravioleta y a la semana de patrocinio de Izakaya Podcast. Me hizo especial ilusión saber que una recomendación había llevado a una oyente directamente hasta el primer episodio de Izakaya y que, después de escucharlo, ya se había convertido en fan.El Glosario Podcastero también ha provocado conversación. El episodio dedicado al rango dinámico recibió comentarios sobre el sonido que estoy utilizando últimamente y una pregunta técnica de David Marzal acerca de la relación entre LUFS, compresión y rango dinámico. Este tipo de respuestas me encantan porque amplían lo que cuento y abren temas que perfectamente pueden acabar regresando al podcast.Con todo esto cierro este segundo episodio de feedback de la octava temporada y el primero dedicado realmente a los comentarios recibidos durante este inicio de ciclo. Sigo MUY agradecido por cada respuesta, cada corrección, cada recomendación y cada mensaje. Después de tantos episodios, recibir feedback sigue siendo una de las mejores partes de estar a este lado del micrófono. Y por supuesto seguiré recopilando lo que me hagáis llegar para volver a abrir este espacio el próximo mes. Si algo demuestra esta entrega es que vuestros comentarios no son solamente una respuesta a lo publicado: muchas veces son el punto de partida de lo que terminaré contando después. _____________ ¡Gracias por pasarte 'Al otro lado del micrófono' un día más para seguir aprendiendo sobre podcasting!

Jenny Opalinski has spent more than a decade inside hospitals where people lose the ability to speak, breathe, swallow, and sometimes survive. A medical speech language pathologist by training, she worked in ICU, neuro rehab, and long term acute care settings, including a Level 1 trauma center, where she watched clinicians absorb 10 to 15 traumatic events in a single shift and then get told to move the crash cart faster next time.That lived reality pushed her to co found The Wellness Shift, an advocacy and education platform focused on healthcare worker burnout, suicide, and assault. In this conversation, Opalinski walks through the moment that changed everything for her: standing in a hospital hallway listening to a family wail after a failed code, followed by a debrief that addressed logistics and ignored grief entirely.She also explains how that work led to Humanity Rx, her podcast about the human cost of medicine, and Dragon's Breath: Calming Tricks for Big Feelings, a children's book that translates evidence based breathing and regulation strategies into language kids can actually use. The episode covers moral injury, time scarcity, false wellness, respiratory muscle training, and why empathy keeps getting treated as an optional expense instead of clinical infrastructure.RELATED LINKSJenny Opalinski on LinkedInHumanity Rx PodcastFEEDBACKLike this episode?

This episode is sponsored by Revelation Gold Group – The now-former Charlotte-Mecklenburg School Board Chair, Stephanie Sneed, and a consultant at the center of a corruption scandal, Raki McGregor, apparently pitched consulting services to the Sheriff's office. According to an explosive report in the Charlotte Ledger, the Sheriff declined the $400,000 proposal, but it shows that the two figures at the center of the CMS scandal were more than just friends or political allies.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-pete-kaliner-show--6946691/support.Subscribe to the free podcast My preferred podcast platform: SpreakerCheck out my preferred gold & silver company: Revelation Gold GroupHelp support Pete's Walk to End Alzheimers here.All the links to Pete's Prep are free!

Seven years ago, I started the Mind Movement Health Podcast without knowing exactly where it would lead. I didn't feel completely ready. I certainly didn't have everything figured out. But I started anyway. To celebrate International Podcast Day, I'm taking you behind the microphone and reflecting on seven years of podcasting, the lessons I've learned, the things that have surprised me, and how hundreds of conversations and episodes have shaped the way I communicate, listen and connect with others. And while this episode is about podcasting, the lessons extend far beyond creating a podcast. We talk about starting before you feel ready, choosing consistency over perfection, becoming a better listener, doing things that make you nervous, staying curious and recognising that you may never fully know the impact your words have on someone else. I'm also giving you a peek behind the scenes at what actually goes into creating the Mind Movement Health Podcast each week. Whether you've been listening since the beginning, discovered the podcast recently, or have ever thought about starting a podcast or pursuing something you've been putting off because you don't feel “ready”, I hope there's something in these seven lessons for you.

Looking back on the evolution of dental media since co-founding The Dental Hacks in 2014, he examines the rise of short-form video, shifts in podcast download metrics, the role of algorithmic distribution compared to RSS feeds, and whether traditional audio shows can still effectively connect with dental professionals .

A listener once told me they hoped I'd quit teaching altogether. Another told me, in the nicest way possible, that the curmudgeon was showing up a little too early these days. Only one of those helped my show. This month's Question of the Month was all about feedback: what's the most constructive feedback you've ever received, and what's the most destructive? A few listeners sent in their answers, I share mine, and to prove how much feedback matters, I dig up some embarrassing basement recordings from a much younger Dave Jackson. Let's get into it.Why Aren't You Getting Feedback?It honestly boggles my mind how many podcasters never ask for feedback and then wonder why their show isn't growing. Think of it like making someone a sandwich. You can ask, "I've got baloney, smoked turkey, or salami. Which do you want?" and make something they'll actually eat. Or you can hand everyone salami and say "tell your friends," while half of them are quietly thinking, "I hate salami."Ralph Estep Jr.: "Go Hire a Speaking Coach"Ralph, the content creator's accountant, says the best feedback he ever got was to hire a speaking coach. People (me included) told him he sounded robotic on his show, nothing like the Ralph you meet on a Zoom call or in person. He found a coach, and it changed the way he does everything. On the other side, he's had people tell him they hope he gets hit by a bus or struck by lightning over his religious views. He's not taking that advice. His point: when you get feedback, consider who it's coming from and whether it makes sense to act on it.York Campbell: The Name Was the ProblemYork's show used to be called Poetic Earthlings, and people kept assuming it was about poetry. It's actually short sci-fi stories: time travel, alien worlds, hyperdimensional creatures, and a few conspiracy theories. A fellow podcaster suggested Welcome to Earth Stories, and once he made the change, the attention and downloads followed. As York put it, sometimes you fall in love with a clever name because of what it means to you, and never stop to ask whether anyone else will understand it.Timothy Kimo Brien: "You Called My Baby Ugly"Tim submitted his old show, KDOI Podcasting (Kimo's Den of Iniquity), to the Podcast Rodeo Show. I said it sounded like a radio station, and the full name sounded like... something else entirely. Tim was not a happy camper. Later, sitting at a podcast conference and hearing someone talk about making your show's title clear, he asked himself what his show actually does: it's about creating art. Hello, Create Art Podcast. He's gone from roughly 200–300 downloads a month to between 1,000 and 1,500. He says it's not necessarily because of the name change. I say probably. Either way, it helped him focus on what the show is really about.My Best Feedback: The Curmudgeon Is ShowingBefore Podfest even started, my buddy Steve Stewart asked me to lunch and asked if I was open to notes. I grew up professionally with "constant improvement" on the walls of my first job, so of course I was. He told me the curmudgeon was coming out a little quicker than it used to. That was gold, because it was something I could control and fix. And it came from someone whose opinion I value, someone who'll tell me when something's good and when it isn't. Knowledge is only power when you act on it.My First Bad Review (and What Good Feedback Looks Like)In 2010, five years into podcasting, I got my first negative review: basically "not good, not enough thought, it's a commercial for bad services." It knocked me back on my heels, but there was nothing I could fix, because it never said why. (This is why I now say you're not a real podcaster until you get a one-star review.)Compare that to a 2017 review from a listener who wanted to hear the show but said the mix had a hiss or too much treble. That's great feedback. It's specific, and I could have adjusted it (I was using the Electro-Voice RE320 back then and liked my S's and T's crisp). The only problem is he should have sent it to me directly.A few things to keep in mind:The person might be having a bad day. After decades in customer support, I've seen people apologize later once they calmed down.Ask yourself: do they have a point? If so, can you fix it?Make it easy for feedback to reach you. A review isn't a direct line.Save the nice messages. On days you don't feel like recording, they remind you people are listening.Reviews are social proof, but they don't help you get found. Apple has said so.When Feedback Goes Wrong: The Podcast Rodeo ShowIn 2017 I launched the Podcast Rodeo Show, where I'd grab a random podcast and give a real first impression. (Half of YouTube is reaction videos now. I'm taking credit for inventing it. I didn't.)One episode, a host opened by sharing a string of genuinely awful personal experiences, all within the first few minutes, and never said what the show was about, who it was for, or even that it was an interview. My feedback was all logic: what's in it for the listener? As Erik K. Johnson says, nobody gets on a bus if they don't know where it's going. Don't bury the lead. People don't care about you until you give them a reason to care.She emailed and attacked me personally, said I was cruel and should never call myself a teacher. It hit me hard enough that I worried the show was hurting my brand, and it's part of why the show eventually ended. Listening back now, I could have been more compassionate. But when I asked my audience whether they wanted a kinder, gentler version, they very loudly said no. So the show evolved (a little less "listen and react," a little more "what do we want them to learn") and got rebranded, first to Podcast Hot Seat (people said that sounded painful) and now to Fix My Podcast.Scott Orr: How to Take Hard FeedbackNow compare that to Scott Orr, an award-winning journalist and host of Code 3 – The Firefighters Podcast. Before one review, I reached out and said, respectfully, "Scott, you sound like you're drunk." He replied that he didn't have a drinking problem. He has Parkinson's. Instead of getting angry, Scott took the feedback and now opens every episode by saying he won't let Parkinson's stop him.When Scott later came on the Podcast Review Show, Erik K. Johnson pointed out that addressing it up front is disarming. Listeners stop wondering what's going on and focus on what Scott's saying, not how he's saying it. Honest? Yes. Awkward? Yes. Helpful? Absolutely.You Can't See Your Own TyposMy favorite example: I once had a typo in the School of Podcasting's own tagline ("plan, launch, grow, and monetize") and didn't catch it. Sometimes you just don't see it.Young Dave Jackson's Basement TapesAt School of Podcasting we hold listener parties, where members listen to an episode together and give feedback in real time. Some people cringe at the idea. So here's my confession: in my twenties I was basically Ross from Friends, recording angry '80s rock in my basement. Guitar, bass, keys, drum machine, and, unfortunately, all the vocals. I'd hit play and leave the room while friends listened.Their feedback? "Who's playing the piano?" Me. "Who's on bass?" Me. Nobody said a word about the music. Just recently, my brother found that CD and told me the songs and singing weren't that bad, but the mix was horrendous. Thirty years later. A little late.Here's the scary part: you're going to be judged anyway. Wouldn't it make more sense to be judged in a way where you can capture the feedback and make changes before you publish?The Sidewalk LessonA few years ago on the Fourth of July, I fell on an uneven sidewalk while looking at my phone and still have the scars on my knees. That was feedback too, just the painful kind. If someone had warned me about that raised block of cement ahead of time, I'd have saved myself a lot of trouble. That's what good feedback does.Give me feedback on this show: head to schoolofpodcasting.com/survey and tell me how I can make it better. I'm doing this show for you.Want help growing your show?
