With The Community Show, you feel like having a coffee β˜• or a drink 🍹 with your industry friends.

This β€œyoung chick” has no authority! David Spinks, the legend himself comes to the show and she tells him that he is wrong and β€œonly creepy peopleβ€œ do it, then brings in arguments like β€œyou don’t measure friendshipsβ€œ. David resonates back with β€œwhat is the ROI of your momβ€œ, then thinks about social norms and business norms.

Anna immediately builds the tension with sensitive privacy questions and I feel like I have no other option than to take a stupid fanboy hat 🧒 so the show has a protagonist to elevate the guest up.

It is a very intense and fun episode. I am relistening to it for the third time now, as I am typing this text and I am still picking new bits.

David tweeted that he enjoyed The Community Show experience and I am very proud of what we’re able to deliver in the show πŸ₯‚.

The only other podcast that I think carries a similar vibe is about money. Alex and Natasha (and their army of producers 🍷) are my role models.
