591: Crime Junkie Creator Ashley Flowers...

JENNA KUTCHER
About this episode

Ashley Flowers is the creator and host behind some of the most successful and well-known podcasts across all genres and the founder and CEO of a podcast network that crafts chart-topping audio content in true crime, comedy, fiction, and beyond. She’s a new mom, an advocate for victims, a rescue dog lover like me, and now she’s adding another title to her name: Author. 

I’m eager to talk shop with her and dig into what she’s learned since the first episode of her wildly successful podcasts, how the landscape of the true crime genre is changing, the secret to crafting chart-topping shows, and why she decided to take on the major task of writing a book – a work of fiction, no less.
