382 - How to Recover When Meta Shuts You Down | Podcasting Morning Chat

What would you do if you were suddenly banned from Facebook? Would you fight to get your account back or start fresh? Today’s topic was inspired by cohost Rich Perry, whose 16-year account vanished overnight, and by Dopey Podcast, which was just kicked off Facebook again after recently regaining access. We dig into what creators can do when platforms pull the plug, how to recover, rebuild, and protect your work before it happens. At the end of the show, we open the mailbag to answer a listener's question about the challenges of going solo and finding your groove behind the mic.
