If you’ve ever found yourself thinking “wow, I wish I had a great podcast to listen to,” get ready because your mind is about to be blown with this two-step trick.
- Think of someone you’d love to hear interviewed, preferably someone who is still alive.
- Google their name + podcast. Click the link and listen.
Seems pretty obvious, right? I bet you’d never tried it before though.
If you need ideas for interesting people, try Stephen Wolfram, Josh Waitzkin, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, Twyla Tharp or Evgeny Morozov. If they’ve written a book, there’s a very good chance you’ll find a podcast episode with them in it, and if you’re very lucky, the rest of the podcast will be good as well.
