This month on Pods and Property, Steph Shoell and Todd “Utah Todd” Porter tackle two major topics: why homeowners feel trapped by low mortgage rates, and how podcasting is emerging as a force on Hollywood’s main stage.
Todd explains how low interest rates are keeping many Baby Boomers from selling, creating a tight housing market but he urges homeowners to run the numbers before assuming they’re stuck. He shares how mindset can reveal opportunities, even in challenging markets, reminding us that the Great Depression produced more millionaires than any other time before it.
Meanwhile, Steph dives into Netflix’s plans to explore podcasting, possibly competing with YouTube and Spotify. She also highlights the Golden Globes’ new podcast category coming in 2026, predicting it will raise the bar for top creators while leaving room for smaller voices to shine.
Back in real estate, Todd shares his concerns about wholesaling, warning homeowners that it often costs them money. Steph shares a personal story of how avoiding wholesaling added $100,000 to her family’s home sale.
Todd wraps up with advice for sellers: digital marketing is essential to get your listing in front of thousands of buyers.
