In this conversation with David Selinger, CEO and Co-founder of Deep Sentinel, we explore how podcasting opens up something data alone can’t — human depth. Selly talks about why he appears on podcasts regularly (roughly one a week), how it builds trust, and why it’s often the best way for potential hires, investors, and customers to understand who you really are.

He and Eric riff on the evolution of podcasting as a reputation tool — from giving people a true sense of your character to how AI might soon analyze those conversations to model your personality. What starts as a chat about business visibility turns into a thought-provoking look at the intersection of content, technology, and authenticity.

This brief exchange shows why podcasts matter far beyond marketing — they’re signals of transparency, curiosity, and connection in a world run by algorithms.

About the episode on Entrepreneur Perspectives

This Content Matterz episode comes from our full conversation with David Selinger (EP 192: Reinventing Security: David Selinger and the Deep Sentinel Mission). In that discussion, we cover everything from AI-powered home protection to leadership lessons from his time at Amazon and Redfin. This clip focuses on how podcasting — and the conversations it sparks — can build brand presence, attract opportunity, and even inspire new technology ideas.

In this conversation with legendary New York City real estate broker Bob Knakal, we dive into the misunderstood value of podcasting as a business tool. Bob challenges the conventional definition of ROI—reframing it as Return on Involvement. With decades of experience and over 100 podcast appearances, he explains why visibility isn’t vanity, it’s strategy. Whether it’s cold calls, public speaking, or digital media, Bob’s goal is always the same: Get in the way of opportunity for his clients.

This episode explores how consistent content creation builds “market presence,” and why it’s no longer optional for professionals who want to be known, trusted, and called upon. From snail mail campaigns in the ’80s to showing up in AI search results today, Bob shares how real estate success often starts long before the deal. Sometimes with a podcast.

In this conversation with artist Jodie King, we discuss why authentic content ultimately outperforms algorithm-driven content. Innovative creators like Prince and Queen defied industry formulas to create revolutionary work that resonated deeply with audiences. There is a constant battle to trust your creative instincts in a digital landscape that tempts creators to follow formulas. Authenticity ultimately builds stronger connections. As Jodie notes, digital platforms have democratized distribution, allowing creators to connect directly with people who appreciate their unique voice, even if it's "only" 1,000 followers: "What if 1,000 people were lining up outside your door?" This is an episode about the counterintuitive truth that creating from genuine inspiration often builds more loyal and engaged audiences than strategizing for metrics. The full-length episode featuring Jodie King is available on Entrepreneur Perspectives.

In this quick conversation with Eric Jorgenson, we explore why podcasting delivers outsized impact even with modest audience numbers. Eric challenges the common misconception that content must reach millions to be valuable, explaining that "it doesn't take a huge audience to have a huge impact on your life." He puts audience size in perspective by asking, "How sweaty you'd be if you walked into a room of 1,000 people watching you talk for an hour?" We discuss how the abstract nature of digital metrics can lead creators to undervalue their actual influence, and why each connection, even if it's just ten people joining your newsletter, compounds over time. This is an episode about appreciating the true leverage of podcasting, beyond raw download numbers, and why small podcast numbers can create massive leverage. The full-length episode featuring Eric Jorgenson is available on Entrepreneur Perspectives.

About Eric Jorgenson: Eric Jorgenson is the CEO of Scribe Media and the author of The Almanack of Naval Ravikant. He has a blog, email newsletter, and a podcast called Smart Friends.

In this chat with Yehuda Niv, CEO of Spines and founder of Niv Publishing, we explore whether there can ever be "too much content" in an AI-driven world. Yehuda argues that hyper-personalization will actually make increasing content volume beneficial rather than overwhelming. He challenges critics who worry about content oversaturation, noting that "there are already 2.5 million titles published annually in the U.S." and his AI publishing platform will add just a fraction to that number. As someone who has built Israel's leading publishing house and raised $22.5M for his AI book platform, Yehuda offers a unique perspective on how AI assistance tools will likely expand the market to "three, maybe 5 million titles a year." This is an episode about embracing content abundance through personalization rather than fearing it. The full-length episode featuring Yehuda Niv can be heard on Entrepreneur Perspectives.

In this chat with Eric Jorgenson, author of The Almanack of Naval Ravikant, we explore the true ROI of content creation. Eric challenges the common approach of measuring returns purely through direct sales, advocating instead for “the longest view in the room.” He explains how content creates “multiplier effects” beyond immediate revenue—from conference invitations and speaking opportunities to business connections and industry credibility. As Eric notes, successful content often becomes “an inflection point for becoming the person who owns this category,” turning outbound hustling into inbound opportunities. This is an episode about seeing content as a long-term investment rather than a short-term transaction. The full-length episode featuring Eric Jorgenson can be heard on Entrepreneur Perspectives.

About Eric Jorgenson: Eric Jorgenson is the CEO of Scribe Media and the author of The Almanack of Naval Ravikant. He has a blog, email newsletter, and a podcast called Smart Friends.

About The Almanack of Naval Ravikant:

The Almanack of Naval Ravikant is a curated collection of Naval’s insights on wealth, happiness, and life, compiled by author Eric Jorgenson. It’s not a traditional book Naval wrote—but rather a synthesis of his tweets, podcasts, and essays.

Main themes:

Wealth creation: Focus on building assets that generate income while you sleep. Learn specific knowledge, leverage code or media, and play long-term games with long-term people.

Happiness: Happiness is a choice and a skill. Let go of desires and comparison. Prioritize peace of mind over chasing status.

Self-education: Read, reflect, and build your own worldview. Formal education matters less than curiosity and lifelong learning.

Time and freedom: Optimize for freedom over money. Time is the ultimate currency—guard it relentlessly.

Clear thinking: Avoid dogma, simplify your decision-making, and understand first principles. Be rational, not reactive.

It’s basically a personal operating system for life—practical, philosophical, and highly rereadable.

In this chat with John Ehrhard, Founder & CEO at Orson, we explore how user-generated content is disrupting traditional media. John highlights that creators can now "whip together their own show on YouTube and get more views" than established TV programs—at a fraction of the cost. We discuss how younger generations are shifting away from traditional networks and how you can bridge the gap between professional production and user-generated content. As John explains, it's a time where "non-creators" become creators. It's an era of media production democratization. This is an episode about the evolving media landscape and the power of accessible content creation. The full-length episode featuring John Ehrhard can be heard on Entrepreneur Perspectives.
