The Richness of Audio with Eric Gonzales

AI is no longer just reading your words it's learning to hear them. Eric Gonzales, co-founder of Tenur AI, says that voice-first AI is reshaping relationship building. With host Tom Schwab, Eric explains why transcripts miss the tone, emotion, and context that voice carries, and how this shift from "2D data" to multimodal understanding is changing CRM, networking, and even AI assistants themselves. They dig into why context, not more data, builds trust, and why feeling "understood" is the real win behind every great AI interaction. A must-listen for anyone who believes relationships, not funnels, drive business growth.

You Are Not One Funnel Away with Tom Schwab

Interview Valet founder Tom Schwab challenges the seductive promise that one funnel, automation, or perfect sequence stands between you and business growth. Instead, he traces 200 years of communication technology - from Morse code to AI - revealing a pattern: each new tool got cheaper but stripped away human richness, until now. As synthetic content floods the internet, real conversations (especially podcast interviews) become the scarcest, most valuable form of trust-building. You're not one funnel away. You're one conversation away. The second installment in this special monthly series, Tom reads from his new mini-book, You Are Not One Funnel Away: The Real Way Trust Is Built In The Age of AI.

Scalable or Just Lazy? Podcast Tourism is Killing Your Results

Too many podcast guests are showing up, talking, disappearing, and then wondering why nothing is happening. Interview: Valet's COO, Jessica Morgan, explains to host Tom Schwab that this is called podcast tourism: lots of interviews, zero strategy, and zero results. Together, they break down why treating podcast appearances as one-time conversations is quietly killing your brand authority. You'll learn how to prepare like a pro, promote every episode after it airs, repurpose content across platforms, and build a repeatable system that turns every interview into a compounding asset, not just another checkbox.

Why Podcast Marketing Is a Magnet, Not a Megaphone with Kristen Nolan

Too many thought leaders and founders treat podcast guesting like a megaphone. Only chasing bigger shows, more downloads, and maximum exposure. But exposure isn't the goal. Business is. Host Tom Schwab sits down with Interview Valet Success Strategist Kristen Nolan to unpack the mindset shift that changes everything: borrowed trust. When you show up on a podcast, you're stepping into a relationship the host has already built. The question is whether you'll make noise or become a magnet.
