What’s Holding Business Creators Back? Heated Debate in The Industry!

What if the reason your podcast & content isn’t growing… has nothing to do with the content?

Today in Content Is Profit, we’re diving into a question that’s been going around in our world lately:

What are we missing when it comes to content and podcasting today?

This conversation got sparked from a spicy debate inside a mastermind, and a few gold nuggets we pulled from Casey Neistat’s recent chat with Colin & Samir.

Let’s just say—there’s more going on than most creators realize.

We’re pulling back the curtain on:

• Why so many shows stall out after just a few episodes

• Where creators are hitting friction (even when they’re “doing everything right”)

• And the hidden gaps no one’s talking about when it comes to turning content into real business results

No fluff.

Just real stories from our studio, hard-earned lessons, and a few hot takes that might make you rethink your approach.

If you're building a show—or thinking about it—this episode might be the wake-up call you didn’t know you needed.

Hit play. Let’s talk about what’s really holding creators back.
