Short transcript excerpt of a conversation (Chrissy Myers and a guest) about the role of a host in interviews: the host should enable experts to speak, add value to listeners, and embrace exploration and discovery when working with small business leaders. The speaker criticizes hosts who talk over guests and emphasizes listening and learning from others.
How does that sense of exploration and discovery translate into your work with small business leaders? How do you take something you're passionate about that wouldn't necessarily relate? How do you pull it together?
It's funny because for me, it's about that exploration and getting out there and finding new things, learning new things. Something. I just experienced this the other day. There was a podcast host that had an expert on and spent the entire time talking over the expert. Correct. 100%. It was one of those things where I was was like. When I heard it, I'm like, why did you. Why did you bother having the expert on? To me, I love sitting across the table from people and hearing what they say, and I realized that I'm educating my audience, so I'm adding value to their day. If you aren't adding value to someone's day, they ain't going to listen to you.
No.
So they're adding something to my audience's day because when I'm sitting across the table, they're adding something to my day, too.
