📺 Watch & Subscribe on YouTube

What happens when you blend podcasting, teaching, and hip-hop? You get a fascinating conversation with York Campbell, the dynamic host of "Welcome to Earth Stories." York spills the beans on the art of podcasting, revealing how he networks his way to success and builds a global audience by collaborating with voice actors. He even addresses the familiar guilt of missing out on favorite podcast episodes and the importance of being selective in what we listen to.

The journey doesn't stop at podcasting. Drawing from his experience as an educator, York uncovers the profound impact of both good and bad teachers, the necessity of patience, and the delicate balance of enabling growth through mistakes while setting boundaries for success. Then, we take a detour into the world of hip-hop. Sharing his roots in music, York reflects on the skills honed during his journey, discussing how they are still valuable today. We also chat about the budding potential of Clubhouse as a platform to sharpen creative prowess.

As we wind down, York resonates with the power of art to leave a lasting legacy. He encourages everyone to see podcasting as not just a means of expression, but as a way to create something meaningful that will outlive us. We also debunk the misconception of how others perceive us, reminding you that there's more to life than being serious all the time. Join us, and discover how podcasting, teaching, and hip-hop can create a symphony of storytelling that has the power to inspire, educate, and entertain.

"You have to build a tight circle and forget about the thousands and just focus on the 10. And then, when that 10 grows, focus on the 20. Because you could just easily get lost."

"Podcasting is an opportunity to leave a legacy and create something meaningful that will outlast us."

"It takes me an average of three to four days to produce an episode, from writing, production, and working with voice actors from all around the world."
