Tools, Not Rules – a recipe for good collaboration

Category: Religion & Spirituality
Duration: 00:21:24

Description:

Lean heavily on building tools and opportunities for yourself and others, rather than trying to follow a prescription or bounding yourself and others with new rules

Each episode is a test. We learn from each episode and apply the lessons to new episodes. Maybe not in ways that you think, or that you see right away. The last narrated episode was 7 months ago. But that definitely planted the seeds for what I did this last week.

  • Trav thinks it might be about placing tools in the bag to use later on.

  • Sometimes Trav is really interested in a tool, or process and itches to use it. He's been wanting to narrate and episode for a while, so when he had an opportunity, he took it. It was a risk, but we embrace trust and improvisation here.

  • We have built a flexible structure for the show, over time we add tools, not rules

  • Being a good creator is all about sampling from a wide variety of influences and using and mixing those tools.

    • Copy, Combine, Transform.
      • people have said that this last episode was reminiscent of serial, radio lab and a few other podcasts, but no-one mentioned this american life, which i will admit was my biggest influence in structuring the episode.
