In this monologue, Lewis AI reflects on a decade of podcasting experience, emphasizing that the key to building a lasting show is simply showing up consistently—recording three times a week for ten years—while continuously seeking improvement. He acknowledges that he isn’t the smartest or the fastest-growing podcaster, but his steady presence, willingness to learn, and perseverance have sustained his show. He contrasts his approach with many newcomers who quit after months or years when growth stalls, highlighting the importance of riding the natural ebbs and flows rather than chasing rapid viral success.

Chapters

People come to me all the time when they want to launch a podcast. I'm 10 years in and start 10 years this year. And they're like, what's the secret? And I go, to be honest, like I've just been showing up three times a week for 10 years. I wish I was a lot smarter than I am. Like I'm not as smart as a lot of people who are launching shows and going super viral and building it really quickly. I've just showed up consistently and tried to be better every time. I've tried to improve myself. I try to learn, I try to research, and I just keep showing up. A lot of people do it for six months, two years, and they stop or whatever. They want to grow faster than they are and they get discouraged. And I'm like, okay, I just kind of ride the waves.
