When you study at university, most things pass through you. Classes, notes, exams - and in the end, you’re left with a diploma that doesn’t show how you think. Now imagine recording your journey from the first year every week, honestly: what you learn, what confuses you, what starts to make sense. You can talk to classmates, ask questions, reach out to people in the field. You’re creating content and thinking out loud.

At first, no one listens - and that’s the advantage. No pressure, no need to perform. You can be wrong, change your mind, and figure things out. Over time, your thinking becomes clearer, and you build a record of your growth. After a few years, you don’t just study a subject - you understand it.

People say “no one will listen.” I used to think that was a problem. Now I see it as freedom.

Following this idea, I’m starting my own podcast about my podcasting journey, this time in English, to document the process of figuring things out.

In this podcast, I’ll be talking about how I’m building it from zero, step by step. I’ll share the process of writing my book about podcasting, and also the ideas behind ProxyFeed - a tool I’m working on.

I know it might sound like I think too much about podcasting. Maybe I do. I just really care about freedom and independence - and podcasting, for me, is exactly about that.

Recently, I started sharing this idea while working on UberX, aka a "classic immigrant job", talking to students from USC and professionals. I realized these conversations shouldn’t just disappear, so I began offering my email if they ever wanted to start a podcast or continue the conversation. A couple of people wrote it down - that’s when it clicked: this idea resonates because it’s real.
