EPISODE SUMMARY
In this solo summer episode, Cary Weston dives into listener feedback, experiments with ChatGPT's task scheduling features, and shares a new approach for improving workflow using what he calls the “employee” or “intern” method. He also announces the winner of the $100 listener survey gift card and previews what's coming next for the ChatGPT Experiment community.

3 KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The Employee Approach: Treat ChatGPT like a new hire—give it proper onboarding by sharing your goals, audience, and success metrics before expecting quality output. This foundation leads to more meaningful and helpful results.

• Tasks & Scheduling in ChatGPT: Cary sets up daily scheduled tasks for GPT to pull relevant articles for his podcast. While useful, the current interface has limitations, like the inability to view or edit tasks outside the original conversation.

• Renderings and Custom Guidance: ChatGPT can act like an interior designer—Cary used it to generate 3D renderings from 2D floor plans by having GPT ask questions to better understand his vision. This approach works for many tasks, not just design.

In this solo episode, Cary Weston reflects on the responses from the ChatGPT Experiment podcast listener survey and the feedback received from downloadable guides. He walks through a behind-the-scenes look at how he used ChatGPT to analyze listener input, identify common themes, and build new resources to better serve the audience. Cary also shares a new quiz-based prompt resource to help listeners plan their day using ChatGPT, all inspired directly by audience feedback.

• Top Listener Priorities Identified: The most common themes from the survey were getting more done at work, improving writing/marketing, and automating everyday tasks. Cary used this insight to shape future podcast topics.

• Smart ChatGPT Analysis: Cary shows how to use ChatGPT like an intern—by giving it context, purpose, and permission to ask questions—resulting in valuable content ideas based on real user data.

• New Fill-in-the-Blank Quiz Tool: A new interactive resource was created that helps listeners start their day with ChatGPT support based on their energy level, challenge, and preferred style of help.

In this episode of the ChatGPT Experiment, Cary Weston chats with Tom Schwab, the Chief Evangelist Officer of Interview Valet, an agency that helps businesses grow by leveraging podcast interviews. The conversation dives into the evolving landscape of search, particularly how AI and ChatGPT are shifting how potential customers discover businesses. They explore how long-form, collaborative content, especially podcasting, is becoming more valuable not just for human engagement, but for AI-driven discovery as well.

• AI Referrals Are Real (and Growing): ChatGPT is now a top source of qualified referrals for Interview Valet. Users are asking it for recommendations, and it’s returning well-ranked sources based on long-form content and sentiment.

• Long-Form, Collaborative Content Wins: AI and people both value deep, authentic conversations. Podcast interviews, in particular, rank well because they offer substantial, sentiment-rich content.

• Be Discoverable and Authentic: Businesses should focus on clarity—clearly state who you serve and who you don’t. Creating helpful, honest content (including tone and voice) improves AI visibility and builds trust with real people too.

Tom Schwab is the Chief Evangelist Officer at Interview Valet, a company dedicated to turning podcast interviews into powerful marketing tools. With a background as HubSpot’s first e-commerce case study, Tom brings deep experience in content marketing and audience engagement. He’s a strong advocate for using podcast guest appearances as a way to build share of voice, increase trust, and now—get found by AI.
