“I think it’s why I gravitate so much towards storytelling. I think so much of the world is about being able to tell a story and take someone else’s experiences and communicate them in a way that is easy for other people to internalize.” (13:07)
“What we [the Muslim community] should have been doing, I think proactively, is going out and telling our story and talking about the values that we preach that I think are very American values and finding ways to engage with the community more and more.” (20:08)
“What I realized is, one of the things I really excel at is going out to find scrappy ways to get it done, seeing a problem, coming up with different solutions, experimenting.” (28:33)
“For the podcasters out there, or for anyone, Glow is designed to be the best way for podcasters to be able to let listeners pay them directly. And, it can either be for listener support or to actually charge for content.” (34:36)

“I worked twenty-five years inside of a corporate giant. But I think the pandemic, like for all of us, changed everybody’s values. So, I want to spend the next half of my career teaching people the lessons that I’ve learned.” (11:27)
“All that matters is our relationships and helping each other. That’s all that matters.” (19:51)
“Instead of net fishing, you should be spear fishing. How do you create the most successful podcast with the fewest number of listeners?” (31:59)
“Leadership is a broad category. Leadership is culture. Leadership is sales. Leadership is profit. Leadership is customers. Leadership is marketing. Leadership is brand.” (34:27)
“I also just think there’s two types of mindsets, a scarce mindset and an abundance mindset. I just do not believe that the podcast I host is smaller because you host your podcast.” (37:57)
“I do not like to kick people when they’re down. If someone deserves to be kicked, I’ll call them up and kick them. And I won’t tell you that I kicked them. Or I won’t vote for them. But I generally believe that if someone is coming on my podcast, my job is to give them a platform where they can share what it is they’re talking about. I’m not a journalist, I’m a podcast host.” (47:10)
“You learn, as a podcast host, bruise hard, heal fast. You cannot serve all people all the time.” (50:41)
“Storytelling is such a valuable skill for CEOs, for CFOs. What is our story? Where are we going? How are you part of that? What is the antagonist? How can you be part of the solution? What does success look like? What does it feel like? Same as a podcast guest.” (54:24)

“This is a little trivia, ‘Where was the first interview on Podcast Junkies recorded?’ In my car, at night in Silver Lake. This sounds so sketch by the way. Across the street from a restaurant. Why did we do it that way?” (10:10) (Harry & Espree)

“We have those same opportunities now to create what the business models are as podcasters. And that’s extremely exciting to me.” (22:17)

“I’m interested in guiding people how to create deep, meaningful relationships and helping others to do so, to make it more of a viral effect and scale human connectivity.” (31:55)
“The skills that we developed by having the personality types that surrounded us ended up creating skills within us as adults that we maybe weren’t aware of.” (48:45)
“If I could embrace the journey rather than be attached to my idea of the outcome and just embrace that my whole life is a story and I don’t know how it’s gonna unfold, maybe I would feel a lot more peace.” (1:03:42)
