EXCERPTS:

Building Relationships: "It's like building those individual relationships over time that compounds." — Yong-Soo Chung (16:20)

The Importance of Audience Engagement: "The premise of the show is getting tighter because I know more about my audience. And so that's another important thing to do for people who are, I guess, podcasters is generally, like, you want to continuously hone in on your target avatar and evolve with your audience and evolve this show to serve that audience, but also serve yourself too."  — Yong-Soo Chung (40:09)
