Evan Shapiro writes the newsletter “Media War and Peace” where he maps out the state of the media industry using data visualization models. He’s also a professor at NYU and used to work in podcast and television development at IFC Sundance and NBC Universal’s Seeso. This background allows him to have a comprehensive view of the podcast industry from a global perspective, and how it’s situated in the broader media environment. It also allows him to know from experience how to make a successful and sustainable podcast. This all made for a really interesting conversation with Evan, where we unpack his career and what it’s taught him about the audio industry at large. You can find more from Evan online at his Substack: Media War & Peace. He’s very active on LinkedIn, andmakes a podcast with his daughter, Jamie Shapiro, called Cancel Culture.  I’m on all the socials @JeffUmbro  The Podglomerate offers production, distribution, and monetization services for dozens of new and industry-leading podcasts.
