About this episode
Alan Zweig's new podcast is called "Tubby". It's a unique show that explores conversations about weight, body image, and self-esteem, and not a typical self-help podcast. Together with Alan Black, (Left Of Dial Media) the show approaches the topic with authenticity and humour, focusing on storytelling rather than providing solutions.
They've intentionally kept the podcast audio-first, while still considering video; for marketing purposes naturally. Their goal is to create something that feels like a documentary, with raw, unpolished conversations that make people feel less alone.
We discussed the challenges of podcasting, the importance of originality, and how they want to create a show that resonates with dedicated listeners. They're committed to maintaining the podcast's unique voice and avoiding the generic, overly produced feel of many current podcasts. This is why they are on the show this week. It's something I feel a lot of people are forgetting when making a podcast.
