Recently, Austin Finch, editor for Love Your Team and Market Dominance Guys, was invited by Chris Beall on their show. One part of the conversation was about editing and how Austin feels about his job as a podcast editor, going on four years. We thought you’d enjoy this episode and learning more about the heart behind editing podcasts at Funnel Media Group.

Here is the transcript from this segment:

Chris Beall (19:28):

It seems to me that among those people there’s a great hunger and appetite to get real but also get underneath what’s real, really know what’s going on.

Not just do a job, because you’re told to do it, but to understand it and not just progress like, “Oh I’m being promoted,” but progress like, “Yeah, I get what’s going on and I could go do this in another setting. I could go start my own business,” that kind of thing. Is it just that old people, like people my age just don’t remember, do you think? Or is it that they always are trying to figure out how to put younger people in a box so they can feel better about themselves? What do you think is going on there?

Austin Finch (20:05):

I think a lot of younger people, as soon as they’re coming out of high school, like you said, they’re looking for something more real. They’ve done years and years of, here’s a textbook way to do this. And I’m not saying textbooks aren’t valuable, but you need the hands on with it, because with that pair then you have real experience. And after you do years of textbook learning and reading about what other people have done, you want to get your hands dirty and really see what your capabilities are and what you’re interested in, because it’s hard to tell if you’re just reading about other people doing it.

Chris Beall (20:39):

Yeah, man do I believe that.

Here’s the full episode.
