A Slight Change of Plans with Maya Shankar

In this episode Mike and Eric review the podcast "A Slight Change of Plans" hosted by Maya Shankar. Conceived in 2021, it was selected as Apple Podcasts’ Best Show of the Year and is now in its second season. In this podcast, Maya leverages her background in social and behavioural science alongside personal teenage tragedy into beautifully composed stories of resilience in the face of change. What unique combination of attributes might you possess that can be combined into a killer podcast? Is being nice under any and all circumstances a winning podcast strategy? Should you stick with your theme 100% of the time? How can you use editing to effectively move listeners through your podcast? What tricks can you use to engage your listener without constant conversation? These questions and more are discussed in this award-winning podcast.

For this review we will focus on her November 22, 2021 episode - The Science of Grit with Angela Duckworth.
