#63 If You Can’t Read or Write, You Can’t Tell Your Story! | Stoppage Time with Uncle Rob
Description
In this episode of Stoppage Time with Uncle Rob, we dive deep into the power of storytelling, writing, and human creativity—and why these uniquely human skills matter now more than ever. As AI continues to evolve, there's an urgent need to protect the core of what makes us human: our stories, our words, and our voices.
Rob reflects on the journey of building a podcast business rooted in community, authenticity, and purpose, while celebrating the incredible stories emerging from new creators. Joined by writer and thought leader Leta McCullough Seletzky, this wide-ranging conversation challenges the idea that AI can—or should—replace our creative expression. Together, they explore how writing grounds us, how podcasting amplifies voices, and how gratitude and storytelling fuel both entrepreneurship and personal growth.
This isn’t just a podcast—it’s a reminder that your voice matters. Your story matters. And in a world speeding toward automation, choosing to write, read, and reflect is an act of radical humanity.
If you care about creativity, entrepreneurship, and living with intention—this one’s for you. Stick around for the whole journey.
