If you want to make more money, what you should do is make some more money. Mike,
Speaker 1
i'm literally, i'm not taking this out of contect, like, there is nothing specific.
Speaker 2
This also plays into sort of, like a logic about employment and success and all the sort of stuff, which is just like, you just got to pound the pavement. You just got to get out there and like, do the work. You're like, ok, so what's the work? Nd, they're like, you just got

True crime podcast ar up, and like, conversational podcast er down, or like movie podcaster in, like get some intelligence on the industry and give us, like, some insight also,
Speaker 2
just, like, things like, how do you pick a form at what kind of growth t can you actually reasonably expect?
