What defines an independent podcaster? Today, our discussion centers around a few core questions: Is it creative control, full ownership, team structure, or a combination of these? We dissect the concept of podcasting independence, which was inspired by our recent discussion surrounding Steven Bartlett's decision to turn down a $100M deal to preserve creative control of his show Diary of a CEO. While having an insightful discussion and sharing experiences, we uncover the blurred lines between autonomy, sponsorship, and network affiliations, ultimately still asking: Can financial success and true creative independence coexist?
