- So close to perfect
Terry is the Arch Mage of audio marketing and the creator of literally perfect podcasts (with his radio broadcast mad skills) so it’s surprising that Sidney continues to record audio ending every sentence with vocal fry. Every thing else is perfect. Get a vocal coach. They need work, too. Pursue healthy vocal delivery and you will have achieved the highest level of your father’s craft. Or I’m just old and need to take a seat.

I love the podcast and think that the premise that everyone encounters rejection. It is up to you how you react to it that will change your future for better or worse,that we get to learn form others that went before.
I think that a great story to add to this would be doing an episode on JK Rowling and how she wrote the Harry Potter series.

The stories are always interesting and motivating. At the end of every episode, I find myself either in happy tears or dancing my butt off to the catchy theme song and feeling uplifted. You will definitely not regret following this show. Infinite stars!
