254 Taking Your Life Back Is Hard

The chit-chat at the beginning is all kinds of colorful. Elsie tries to share the lifestyle change of the She Podcasts publishing schedule but then the conversation takes a drastic turn into poop and vomit. You have been warned. We also chat about the whole who’s bigger Spotify or Apple Podcasts discussion, Spotify considering going shopping again, and what ESPN’s podcast development has to teach independent podcasters.
