This episode is based on an exercise from the book, Make Noise: A Creator's Guide to Podcasting and Great Audio Storytelling (also available on Audible) where you have to describe your show in a way that can't be used by other shows and you can use any of these words. The idea is that instead of using the word “Awesome,” explain WHY it's awesome. It's hard, but in the end, it leads you to ponder what makes your show. The book is from Eric Nuzum, who appears in episode 708.
