Skye Pillsbury: Podcast Purist

Long before I even knew that Skye was friends with my super close
cousin Kingman, I wanted to have her on the show. She was a guest
with Sound Off Alum Jim Harold shortly after we all convened on
Orlando for Podcast Movement int the before times of 2019.
Somehow, I failed to meet Skye. I later received an intro through
Kingman to connect and that was more than enough of a sign to do
this episode.


In this episode, you will hear about Skye's podcast journey which
goes all the way back to Bay area radio in 1982 when the music
scene exploded and stations like KQAK FM 99 would emit eclectic
sounds in an MTV era. Skye as reminisces about listening to the
radio in the car and hearing the production value that went into
NPR programming. It wasn't until 2015 when she connected to audio
through podcast; shows like Serial and Gimlet productions had
her, and many Americans... hooked. You'll hear about her time in
college, through Silicon Valley, her time as a publicist, and her
podcast experiences on all sides of the microphone.


Skye currently writes a newsletter called "The Squeeze" which you
can subscribe to here.
