In this episode, Scott Becker reflects on reaching the milestone of 7,000 podcast episodes.
Chapter 1: Who is Scott Becker and what is this podcast about?
Chapter 2: How many podcast episodes has Scott Becker recorded?
This is Scott Becker with the Becker Private Equity in Business podcast. Today's discussion is 7,000 podcast episodes and counting. So I was interviewed last week on somebody else's podcast, and when they did an AI search of me, it showed that essentially I'd recorded something like 7,000 podcasts over the last several years, 7,000 episodes. Now, mind you, many of those are short episodes.
Chapter 3: What was Scott's reaction to reaching 7,000 episodes?
Chapter 4: Who does Scott thank for supporting the podcast journey?
So here is my take on this. When I heard the stat, I was somewhat blown away that we've done that much. I also have to be incredibly thankful to Chanel Bunger and Grace Keller who have had to sit through a huge percentage of those episodes. I mean, God bless them for not falling asleep on the job listening to me talk.
But the point that I thought, when I thought about this, on one hand, I'm thrilled with that sort of drive determination to do 7,000 episodes over the last several years. The flip side is all I could think about is, oh, my goodness, I should be spending more time – on the business than in the business, figuring out the business model than recording so many podcasts.
In any event, we love doing this. One of my favorite things that we do every day is record alone and record with people and keep on moving forward. So God bless that. And thank you to Strategic Pete. for interviewing me and finding me that stat of 7,000 episodes. He didn't find it for me. He found it to interview me on. I was blown away by it.
But I am thankful for everybody that's been so helpful in doing this. We're thankful for how well they're received in the Apple News rankings and so forth. But also we do think that it leads me to think, oh my goodness, I got to record a little bit less and think a little bit more. Thank you for listening to the Becker Private Equity and Business Podcast. Thank you.
