The Future of Prof G Media, How We Make the Podcast, and Why Scott Became a Professor

Welcome to Office Hours with PropG. It's Scotfree August. Oh God, we all needed that. Which means we're bringing you something a little different. This is the first in a three-part series featuring some of our favorite Office Hours questions.

Today's theme, my favorite topic, me. This episode is all about questions I've received about my life, my values, and the company we're building, Prop Gmedia. Let's bust right into it. Hey Scott, this is Barbara from Istanbul, longtime listener and reader. I have a question for you that you might not like answering, but I think you will appreciate it.

So the other day I was reading the corporate life cycle from Aspat the Modern, which I got to know for your podcast. Thank you for that. And he was talking about how long-lasting businesses usually have a succession plan in place. They usually think about succession just in case and they end up, you know, lasting longer. But then I can't help but notice that the podcasts that you release, like Prof G Markers, Prof G podcasts, yes, they're based on your personal branding, but what happens if you decide to start one day or if you decide to pass it over, you know, to Ed and the team?
