This was a fun one...

In this live-recorded episode of Bad Podcast Pitches, I unpack a cold outreach email aimed at my dormant show, 1,000 Podcasters, and use it as a teaching moment. I walk through why addressing a host by their show name misses the mark, why context about a show’s current status matters, and where bold claims about YouTube discovery and growth metrics deserve scrutiny. We examine the nuances behind stats like “70% discover on YouTube,” the ambiguity of percentage lifts without baselines, and the real work involved in picking meaningful keywords—especially when optimization is pitched as a quick fix.

I also invite you to weigh in: should I follow up with the sender, and what questions would you want asked on a discovery call? If you’ve received a questionable podcast pitch, send it my way for a future breakdown. Thanks for being part of the value-for-value journey—if this episode helped, share it with a friend who’s navigating the murky waters of podcast promotion and YouTube strategy.
