In this episode of Roast My Podcast, we roast a beloved tech podcast, @PrimaryTechShow, from @beardfm, the former host of @AppleInsider.

We break down what's working, what's not, and what you can learn to leverage your reputation as a host, lean into status games, and how positioning and differentiation can help to expand listenership and your audience.
