How We Built This: Guy Raz on Intimacy, Independence, and What's Worth Preserving in Podcasting
About this episode
This week’s archival pull from What’s a Podcast? The Extended Interviews features one of the voices that helped build the podcast industry as we know it: Guy Raz.
Dan Granger (CEO, Oxford Road) sits down with the creator of How I Built This to talk about how we built this—i.e. how podcasting went from media exile to mainstream power player—and what’s worth protecting as the lines between audio, video, and algorithm blur.
“[As a listener], you’re giving me your time—and your time is more valuable than money.”
—Guy Raz
The team is talking: The Podcast Intimacy Advantage, Video as an Add-On, Goodbye to Gatekeepers, and more.
Let’s dive in.
