Episode description as stored
Most podcasts never make money, and that truth can shake your confidence when you’re trying to build something that feels worth the effort. It’s tough watching creators launch shows left and right while you’re wondering what actually separates the ones that grow from the ones that quietly disappear.
Omar breaks down the real numbers behind the industry and shares what those early days of The $100 MBA Show really looked like. You’ll hear how long it took before anything moved, what milestones mattered, and why the usual path to podcast profit is not what most people assume. It’s a straight look at what makes a show survive and what quietly keeps most podcasters stuck.
