Stick the landing.
If you could start a new podcast, your budget is $1M and you don’t have to worry about the logistics or whether or not anyone would like it, what would it be?

Are there too many podcasts?
Nope. Exactly like TV and film and everything else – there are too few good podcasts.

Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson, Questlove Supreme, and Ear Hustle.
What’s a podcast you love that you don’t think enough people listen to?

Thanks, Glynn!
