Have you noticed how many podcasts there are now? Apparently, anyone can get 2 or 3 mics off of Amazon or Flipkart, record from your phone camera or go for a professional one, talk about anything, upload it on YouTube and Instagram and create YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels. It might have become the world's new obsession.
Sometimes, these podcasts are pure drivel. Other times, they may have valuable insights. They might even be a branding tool. Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath seems to have found a considerable amount of success with his WTF podcast. One of his latest podcast panellists was someone you might know for trying to extend his lifespan: Bryan Johnson, the US tech entrepreneur and biohacker.
Remember how UFC's Dana White walked out of Howie Mandel's podcast after realizing how fed up he was with the whole podcast scene? Bryan Johnson walked out of Nikhil Kamath's WTF podcast, too. Why? Was he fed up? Was it ennui? It's said that he couldn't handle the air.
