  • #260 The Only Way to Get Rich With Content in 2025
    Jan 5 2025

    You’ve been lied to by internet gurus.

    You don’t need to go viral. You don’t need millions of followers. You don’t need ten years of experience.

    You just need to solve real problems.

    Most creators fail because they chase attention instead of trust.

    Here’s the only way to build wealth with content in 2025:

    • Solve one painful, specific problem.
    • Deliver massive free value through long-form content.
    • Show up consistently so your audience sees you as the expert.
    • Create an offer that solves the rest of their problem.

    Why this works?

    People don’t care how many followers you have. They care if you can solve their problem.

    Podcasts, YouTube, and long-form content are trust-building machines. They position you as the go-to expert faster than chasing trends ever will.

    In my latest video, I break down how to:

    • Grow a content business without a big audience.
    • Build trust that makes selling effortless.
    • Turn content into dollars in 2025.

    The ones who win this year won’t be the ones chasing virality. They’ll be the ones solving actual problems.

  • #258 Pat Flynn - 15 Years of Online Business Advice in 65 Mins

    Not many people know this, but Pat Flynn is the reason I started my podcast.

    Back in 2020, I was broke, clueless, and desperate for a way out, I bought a $60 microphone.

    That mic? It came from an affiliate link on Pat Flynn’s website.

    I binged watched every piece of content Pat had:

    • How to start a podcast
    • The best mics and software
    • Editing tools I’d never used before

    Fast forward to 2025, and I just recorded episode 258 of my podcast—with Pat Flynn himself.

    In this episode, Pat shares the lessons, failures, and surprises from 15 years of building online businesses—including generating over $10M in revenue.

    We talk about:

    • How he built and grew Deep Pocket Monster to 1M subscribers
    • The importance of emotional connection in your content
    • Why small, vibrant communities are the future of business
    • The reality of staying relevant in a changing landscape

    Is it blind luck? Or the compounding effect of 15 years in the game?

    Pat breaks it all down.

    If you’re building a content business or just starting out, this is an episode you can’t miss.
