Ep. 137: What It Takes to Run A Successful Podcast with Mind Pump Media's Adam Shafer
01:28:48 Share

Mind Pump Media is one of the biggest podcasts in the health and fitness scene, and its success isn’t an accident. Adam, Sal, Justin, and Doug have spent years becoming masters of the podcasting craft. We’ve interviewed the Mind Pump Crew before, but this week we have Adam back for a solo interview with Jill to discuss the in and outs of the podcasting business. The only “secret” to success is hard work, and Adam is no stranger to it.
