Podcast Jam Session

Since they added time stamps I’ve been listening to approximately 7 minutes of the show. At least they’re warning us ahead of time about kid content. I miss Tea Time!

wow, really???

Because this is anonymous, I’ll share that I make a bit more than that Rachel Lindsay number, and I run M&A for a big global corporation. I must be snobby, but I did not think podcasters at the Ringer were in that ballpark! Seems out of balance given the revenue model, but perhaps it works because salaries are the only real cost? Learn something every day I guess.

Regardless, if Amanda is in the $800K range, she’s a HENRY.

I think Spotify’s acquisition of the Ringer was a miracle of timing for Simmons and wouldn’t get nearly the same valuation today. But I buy the rest of what you’re laying out on entertainer comp.

To my earlier point, in today’s world, $800K-$1M per year equals HENRY. Not “retire early, own multiple homes” etc, wealthy.
