On episode #6 of the Dark Horse podcast I spoke to Brendan McDonald - the guy that launched Maron Maron’s super-successful WTF podcast. Brendan got his start in college radio, then moved on to NY public radio, where he botched the declaration of the Iraq War live in front of millions of listeners. But that didn’t stop him. Brendan now runs one of the most successful, profound, and interesting podcasts run out of the world’s most famous garage. Listen to the full episode to hear some of the things he’s learned about listening, engaging with an audience, and the art of the interview. Comedian Paul Mecurio is my guest co-host for this episode as he shares with us probably the best story I’ve ever heard - the time Paul McCartney agreed to be on his podcast and his hilarious scramble to try to make it happen.
