What Does Stewart Alsop Say Podcast Notes Is Really Good at?

From the episode: What would you learn if you took notes on the best podcasts?

Answer

Stewart Alsop tells the Podcast Notes team, on Crazy Wisdom, that they are unusually good at turning a podcast into writing, and that they would have something powerful if they could do the same thing out loud. Matt says second- and third-tier celebrities on Twitter are easier to reach than five years ago, often by a direct message. Alsop says that surprised him. He has cold-contacted guests mostly on Twitter and sometimes on Facebook, about 70 percent said yes, and he has not needed his Silicon Valley network. He is not making money yet. He quotes Nassim Nicholas Taleb on cocktail parties and black swans, and says a podcast is now that party, recorded.
