Episode notes
Podcast Born From A Risky Impulse
- Julian bought podcast equipment in March 2020 and reluctantly built a studio when COVID lockdowns made quitting impossible.
- He planned solo episodes first and expected months before guests would come, but launched with ten episodes and guests arrived quickly.
The Breakthrough With Grant Wiley
- Episode 38 with Grant Wiley was the first time Julian felt an 'out of body' interviewing moment where he knew exactly how to guide a guest.
- Wiley later told Julian he opens doors he doesn't want opened, confirming Julian's rare interviewing gift.
Conversation Over Interviewing
- Julian rejects the label 'interviewer' and frames his role as conversing and connecting, not interrogating.
- That approach helps guests relax and reveal deeper, authentic material on camera.
