How I Built The Tim Ferriss Show to 700+ Million
Downloads — An Immersive Explanation of All Aspects and Key
Decisions (Featuring Chris Hutchins) | Brought to you by
LinkedIn Jobs recruitment platform
with 770M+ users, Athletic
Greens all-in-one nutritional
supplement, and Helix
Sleep premium mattresses. More on all three
below.


Chris Hutchins (@hutchins) is an avid life
hacker and financial optimizer. He’s the host of All
the Hacks podcast and the Head of New Product
Strategy at Wealthfront.


Previously, Chris was co-founder and CEO of Grove (acquired
by Wealthfront), co-founder of Milk (acquired by Google),
and a partner at Google Ventures, where he focused on seed
and early stage investments.


Chris reached out with many questions about podcasting. He had
already read much of what I had written and listened to
several interviews, and this is intended to be an updated guide
to all things podcasting.


Please enjoy!


This episode is brought to you
by Athletic
Greens. I get asked all the time,
“If you could only use one supplement, what would it be?” My
answer is usually Athletic Greens, my all-in-one
nutritional insurance. I recommended it in The 4-Hour
Body in 2010 and did not get paid to do so. I do my best
with nutrient-dense meals, of course, but AG further
covers my bases with vitamins, minerals, and whole-food-sourced
micronutrients that support gut health and the immune
system. 


Right now, Athletic
Greens is offering you their Vitamin D
Liquid Formula free with your first subscription
purchase—a vital nutrient for a strong immune system and
strong
bones. Visit AthleticGreens.com/Tim to
claim this special offer today and receive the free Vitamin D
Liquid Formula (and five free travel packs) with your first
subscription purchase! That’s up to a one-year
supply of Vitamin D as added value when you try their delicious
and comprehensive all-in-one daily greens product.

Sleep! Helix was selected as the
#1 overall mattress of 2020 by GQ magazine,
Wired, Apartment Therapy, and many others. With Helix,
there’s a specific mattress to meet each and every body’s unique
comfort needs. Just take their quiz—only two minutes to
