Gary’s Q&A

Listener question & Gary’s response · Transcript passage

Karl Williams on Facebook asks, With Olivia doing the research for some of the episodes, do you let her choose from the list, or is the episode choice solely yours?

She actually has quite a bit of leeway in what ideas she wants to pursue. I do have a master list of show ideas, and some of those do come from that list, but she has also come up with her own ideas. We meet once a week to go over which episodes will be worked on, so I have an idea of what she’ll be working on and can approve it before she puts in the work researching and writing. It is a lot easier to write and research an episode if you are interested in the topic, not just doing something because you are told to do it.
