Business, entrepreneurship, audience growth, and pure operator chaos. In this episode, Ben and Jon sit down and map out how they plan to grow Low Bar Podcast, from the smartest ideas to the dumbest experiments they’re absolutely going to try anyway. This is not advice. It is two friends openly scheming about how to take a show from “good” to “everywhere.”

They talk through paid ads, referral loops, niche content traps, algorithm bets, wild format ideas, the stuff they know will work, the stuff they know probably won’t, and the things they want to try just because it sounds fun. If you’ve ever wondered what the inside of a creator strategy meeting actually sounds like when nobody is pretending to be a guru, this is it.

This episode is honest, unserious, and full of real operator thinking. Nothing polished. Nothing staged. Just the actual plan to grow the show you’re watching.
