I was at Amy Poehler's live show right before the holidays.

She interviewed Maya Rudolph on stage.

It was like

The best night.

Yeah.

It's you know, I think, again, like part of the funny thing about podcasts is you feel like, you know, these hosts like even if you don't.

Right.

And so being able to see them in person and sort of have them invite you into their space feels like a very natural thing, actually, because you kind of feel like you've been doing it for, you know, however long you've been watching the show.

I mean, if you can attract a large audience to your podcast, like, that is a large, loyal audience.

And I think that –

you can activate them in really unique ways.

One way is by, yeah, getting people to tune into a comedy special.

But I think there's probably a bunch of other ways.

I mean, we've definitely seen a lot of creators launching brands, like products that they sell that they feel like are authentic to who they are.

And again, I think one of the reasons a bunch of them have been successful is because they have this audience that is tuning in and they

They know that the problems that they're facing and trying to solve through a product are the same problems that their audience has.

So I think, yeah, we'll continue to see that happening for sure.
