Today, we’re focusing on what podcasters can learn from shows that break the mold and still manage to form deep connections with their audience. Jonathan Howard continues our Obsession-Worthy Podcast series with a look at "Everything Is Alive," a show that turns simple ideas into emotionally charged, memorable storytelling. We explore how a strong creative constraint can open new doors and why unexpected formats can be effective when rooted in intention. We also weigh in on sound shaping emotion and creating space for humanity in any format, even the most unconventional ones.
