Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Former NPR, Apple, Wondery, and Netflix Development Exec N’Jeri Eaton on Why Certain Podcasts Work
Q: How did you approach multi-platform strategy at Netflix, especially with regard to off-platform engagement?
The strategy was to leverage Netflix's promotional reach to extend IP beyond the platform—creating narrative video podcasts and companion shows that drive engagement off-platform, while carefully measuring time spent to gauge impact.
Former NPR, Apple, Wondery, and Netflix Development Exec N’Jeri Eaton on Why Certain Podcasts Work
Q: What makes a show worth greenlighting in terms of team, concept, and track record?
A show must have a unique, addive concept, a strong team with proven production capability, and a clear path to audience growth and revenue goals; the track record helps but isn't the sole determinant—having the right producer and editor is crucial.
Former NPR, Apple, Wondery, and Netflix Development Exec N’Jeri Eaton on Why Certain Podcasts Work
Q: What is your approach when you walk into a new organization and what exactly do you do?
I describe myself as a development executive who is a connector—removing obstacles for creatives, helping teams combine with marketing and sales, and ensuring the project serves the story and the audience. The role is to set up systems, evaluate, and enable the team to do their best work.
Sound Picture Founder and Producer Justin McGoldrick on Adapting Podcast IP for Film and TV
Q: How do podcasters actually make money from these deals?
Podcasters typically earn an upfront option fee, which can lead to a larger purchase price if the project is greenlit.

Q: What does a successful project look like?
A successful project goes through many phases, often starts with listening to podcasts and reading scripts to find the right creative fit.
