Telling AI to Write It Doesn't Mean You Wrote It (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When I was 17, my high school organized a two-week trip to Italy and Ireland for $900. My dad offered to pay for it. I said, "Why do I need to go when I can just look at pictures online?" Seventeen-year-old Joe, you were so, so stupid. I’ve since learned that photos aren’t the experience. Just like ideas aren’t the fully fleshed-out thought. On top of a passionate credo about why we need to write for ourselves, I tell you exactly how you can start writing more without letting AI do it for you. W
Should You Stop Teaching to Get Clients? [Friday Wrap-Up] (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week I talk about a Steve Thompson video that's had me rethinking my whole approach — the idea that teaching tactics on YouTube actually costs you clients, because when you hand people the solution they assume they can do it themselves. After a rough summer where teaching hasn't yielded new business, I've decided to make September an experimental month: teach less, shift beliefs more, and stop being afraid to sell. Then a story about three climbers rescued off Mount Shasta after relying on

Writing With AI Isn't Like Using a Calculator [Friday Wrap-Up] (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week I talk about why writing with AI isn't the same as using a calculator for math — financier Stanley Druckenmiller defended his AI-written WSJ critique of Scott Bessent by calling it "using a calculator," and I break down why that misunderstands math, calculators, and words. Then the unraveling of Ashley Flowers' true-crime podcast empire, and what a founder pulling 3 a.m. alarms on weekends and holidays has to teach any solopreneur who thinks no one else can do the work, plus a recommen
When to Use Automation vs. When to Use AI (opens the original)
Read excerpt
AI and Automation are not the same thing. But people seem to use the terms interchangeably. Tools like Zapier and Make are deterministic automation — you know the input, you know the output, and it's incredibly consistent. Large language models are what I'm calling interpretive automation. Run the same thing multiple times and you can get different outputs. Both can do similar things. I don't treat them the same. And in this episode I’ll tell you the differences, and how to figure out when to us
