This week we take a page from some of our favourite podcasters and engage in a bit of self reflection.
Were we too confident go in to our podcast? What have we learned? What has surprised us? Are we having fun? Who is our tribe? These and other questions are discussed as Mike and Eric look back at the first 20 episodes of our podcast.
On No Harm In Asking, hosts Eric Byron and Michael Kerr are on a journey to gather insights into why podcasts succeed or fail and to explore the myriad of different patterns, structures, topics, techniques, and personalities that have evolved this industry. Through our podcast, we hope to inspire and encourage the next generation of storytellers and visionaries.

Revisionist History with Malcolm Gladwell
July 20, 2022

This week we go back to the one that started it all, well, at least for Mike.
From a little town in Southwestern Ontario to Toronto to Washington to the world, it seems obvious that few can tell a story like the truly talented, and always inquisitive, Mr. Gladwell. As well, for those out there doing 1 hour or even 2 hour-plus podcasts, it's worth listening to what a master of the trade can pack into just a half hour.
In this episode Michael Kerr and Eric Byron tackle why we believe this podcast is always a pleasure and a privilege to listen to.
Revisionist History is Malcolm Gladwell’s journey through the overlooked and the misunderstood. Every episode re-examines something from the past — an event, a person, an idea, even a song — and asks whether we got it right the first time.
This week we focus on Malcolm's recent Season 7 episodes, including "In Triplicate" and "The Magic Wand Experiment". We also listened to a few back in Season 6 for our review, including "Project Dillard", "Lord of the Rankings" and "I Love You Waymo".

Next Episode
This week we try something new as we kick off Season 2 of the No Harm In Asking pod where Eric and Mike debate what makes a great sports podcast.
After listening to dozens of sports podcasts, as well as looking at innovative formats from radio and television, we discuss how you might get started in this game if you don't come from a journalism or athletic background based on some that have done it. We also suggest some things to avoid that will help give your podcast a chance in this highly competitive genre.
