I want to start a movement for kids and teenagers, where it becomes cool to be curious and listen to podcasts. I think we spend way too much time worrying about what other people think of us. Less shame, more vulnerability, more unity. Live social audio is huge but creators need to be incentivized to use it. So if I can help with some strategy because there are also certain hosts, like Chris Voss or Elon Musk that I would love to crush on Twitter.
Nicole Behnam is a founder and journalist. She is the creator of Beyond The Interview, a Beyond With Nicole, where she’s interviewed people like Chris Voss, Tom Bilyeu, and Robert Greene.
In this conversation, we spoke about turning friends into mentors, how Naval Ravikant spoke at one of her events, overcoming insecurities, reconciling friendships, and her Oscars speech.
