#16 Justin breaks down why clarity - not volume, catchy marketing tactics, or the many reasons podcasters think their podcast growth has stalled - is the real bottleneck for most podcasts.

This episode introduces a practical podcast clarity audit designed to remove friction and make your show easier to discover, understand, and follow.
