Tweetable Quotes"The industry is real tough and if you're ever exposed to that, I think you're going to have to realize that just being great at your instrument is great, but it's not enough. You need to do all the other stuff, which is like networking. Not being an idiot is quite an interesting part of it as well." "I thought there was too many podcasts at the start when I joined. I do believe everyone's got different voice. And what I mean by that is that's a bit of a cliche, but in a travel perspective, if you went to Thailand tomorrow and I went to Thailand tomorrow for the same amount of time, even in the same places, we're going to have different story because things happen to you that's different to me." "I think the real content there to really appeal is let's not give it away too much. Let's tell you what El Salvador is like and what I did and who I met and some sounds and some tips. But I want the imagination to not be completely gone. I want you to think, oh yeah, what else did he see? Like, should I go there?"Resources MentionedLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jameshammondtravel/

I was working as an unpaid intern at the Paris Review and writing book reviews for various publications. A friend who was ahead of me in school landed a job at the New Yorker and told me about an opening for an assistant. That’s how I started at the New Yorker.""I remember right around the time I got my first iPhone, there was this weird icon I didn’t know. I found Rachel Maddow and started listening to a ton of her podcasts. For years, that was the only podcast I knew about until things developed in that space.""When I started making Lost Hills, just being able to bring people’s voices to the listeners was so cool to me.

I was reading a lot of personal development books and thought, wouldn't it be cool to learn from the authors? It wasn't about making money; it was about having meaningful conversations.""The pandemic was a turning point for me. I saw a lot of poor management and encroachment on civil rights. I realized that talking to another best-selling author wasn't going to address these issues.

Once I was done researching for the book, I was going to be done with the podcast. But I got done writing the book, and I was still liking the podcast and enjoying the conversations, so I just kept going with it.""I ended up choosing to go to Stanford even though I was scared. It was such a good decision for me because what I learned when I got there was that it was better to be in an environment where I was a bit intimidated and felt like the players were even better around me because it forced me to step up.""For me, it's not a huge money maker or a big marketing funnel. It's just something that I like doing, I feel like I'm good at, and I think it reaches some people. It gives me a platform to share ideas, interview interesting people, and talk about topics that matter to me. It's an extension of my larger brand and a way to connect with my audience."Resources MentionedLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/mrobbins/

Tweetable Quotes"I made a decision very early that I didn't want to be a product of where I came from. So I turned to education and reading, which afforded me the opportunity to get a full academic scholarship and chart a different path." "Miss Dixon, my fifth and sixth grade teacher, and Mr. Cook, my guidance counselor from ninth through twelfth grade, were like guardian angels to me. They saw potential in me and provided me with opportunities that shaped the person I am today." "I just wanted to be rich, if I could be honest. We were so broke. Even though my dad was technically middle class, he made really good money. He was an industrial engineer with GM, but of course, he smoked it, so he didn't really get to see it. I knew a whole bunch of babies and welfare wasn't going to be the move if I wanted to be wealthy. So I decided to seek out education."Resources MentionedInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/darnyellejerveyharmon/

Together, we dive into the essence of what has made this adventure so special – from the intimate creation of a Victorian séance parlor for your listening pleasure to the honest, unscripted moments that remind us all that podcasting is as human as it gets. Patrick's reflections on the growth of the show, our shared experiences, and the careful curation of a community of the spiritually curious are not just stories; they're the heartbeat of a conversation that has thrived on authenticity and a genuine love for the unexplained.

"Whenever I do an episode about some individual who played a role in spiritualism or whatever, I sometimes wonder, do they know and do they appreciate us kind of pulling their name back up and is it something that affects them? On the other side, do they feel when people a hundred years later they didn't know, not connected to them?"
"With AI grabbing voices, it kind of worries me. But I have had the conversation with my husband, and I've told him, unless you're in need at that moment, I want my shows to stay available. At least until people forget about me."

"I have absolutely no problem admitting that I don't know anything and that I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. Maybe that's my superpower."
"There's a huge development also that I see in myself as a host, where I just feel like less of... and it also varies from episode to episode I'm talking to a different human, there will be a different energy present, so I'm not able to do it the same to the same degree, but I notice as sort of like development when it comes to the need of straight coming up with the next answer and having everything ready and set and whatever I don't, and there will be a lot of letting things land in my podcast."
