0100: How A Tech Podcast Reaches Episode 100

Most podcasts don’t fail because the idea is bad, they fail because people stop showing up. We’re celebrating Tech Hustle Podcast episode 100 by pulling back the curtain on what kept us consistent, what nearly threw us off track, and why reaching 100 puts us in a small slice of actively publishing shows.

We get into the real journey: starting on Twitter Spaces, moving to audio platforms, then stepping onto YouTube and building production muscle along the way. We talk show prep and research, how we’ve recorded with surprisingly simple gear (yes, iPhones), and why a “fully produced” feel is more about reps than budget. We also shout out the people and places that helped, including Studio 1016 in West Palm Beach, plus the broader tech community energy we felt at Render ATL.

Then we do what we do best: tech and culture with opinions attached. Apple catches heat for incremental change and nonstop updates, Vision Pro gets the “cool but pricey” verdict, and we unpack how cars are turning into subscription platforms with Tesla-style feature models. We share a firsthand Waymo story that raises real questions about autonomy, and we revisit Raymond’s Nuggets, including the kind of practical utility tips that listeners actually use and the nugget that unexpectedly went viral.

We close with Bobby D tech insights on agentic AI, using AI as a daily tool for work and learning, and the uncomfortable reality of AI-enabled surveillance. And because it’s Tech Hustle, we still make room for the sports debates that get way too personal. Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so we can build the next 100 together.
