  • Summary

  • Steve Sims discusses the real value of starting a podcast, challenging common misconceptions about podcasting success. While many aspiring podcasters dream of becoming the next Joe Rogan or securing massive Spotify deals, Sims reveals that his own successful podcast began with a different purpose entirely. He created his podcast as a platform to engage in meaningful conversations with people he wanted to learn from, using it as a Trojan horse to access interesting minds ranging from business leaders like Dan Martel and Jim Quick to more unconventional voices like former gang members and priests. Despite refusing sponsorship deals to maintain his creative freedom, Sims's authentic approach and consistency have led his podcast to rank in the top 0.5% of American podcasts. Through his candid discussion, he emphasizes that sustainable podcast success comes not from chasing fame or fortune, but from having a clear purpose and genuine curiosity.
