I talk with Justin Peters about how his hobby podcast led to co-founding SimplePod Studios with his brother, including their team setup, early clients, pricing and package evolution, and why they focus on high-ROI finance-adjacent creators. We also get into his sabbatical and FI journey, what it takes to produce an episode consistently, keeping the agency as a lifestyle business, and how he sees platforms and video trending.
