 What's up? It's Kinsey and welcome to my channel if you guys aren't here. Hi. I'm Kinsey I make like lifestyle videos, but I also have a podcast and that's kind of what we're gonna be focusing on today I have a podcast called the I love you so much podcast can deal with that's me Basically to sit down and talk with someone weekly and typically like an influencer CEOs Today we have Ali web on who is the founder of dry bar and squeeze so that's really cool I'd like love dry bar forever, and I'm a squeeze member. It's like literally one of my favorite things ever I love Ali, and then we also have Alicia and her me on for pretty basic like an episode of pretty basic Which would be great, and then I have another block this afternoon Where I'm doing a solo episode. We're doing like a 73 questions Vogue style Taylor my producer is gonna be asking them And then we're doing the intros and ads and stuff So I'm gonna show you guys the entire behind the scenes like what goes into a pocket episode what I do how I do all The stuff and whatever this is just like I'm 21 working, you know, whatever. I'm with the network So I'm with your media you guys don't get any confidential or anything. It's like all everyone's with your media It's Michael whatever blah blah blah. It's cool. It's great. It's network. They do all my stuff So I have a producer there Taylor who like you go to me, and I love him and we like he's so funny He's in all my intros too He's the best and so I have a producer there and then they edit it They get me the deals they upload it They do basically everything besides like I still tell them what I want I decide on guests, but they still help me with outreach um They do basically I do the descriptions I'm like, what do I do and I go in and I talk so like they do a lot of that stuff So as far as the technical aspect of it, um, I don't really do that stuff That stuff is pretty easy to find online if you guys are looking to start your own podcast Do you like anchor or something? So anyways, this is a day in the life of a 21 year old Working gal so the process of a podcast we're gonna quickly do this So we're gonna kind of be going through this all day the first thing obviously a majority the time I have guests I pick a guest So a lot of people reach out to me and then I will reach out to some people Um, I would say it's probably 50-50 like people are constantly reaching out to be on podcast And then I'm constantly reaching out like I have an Instagram Board on my phone where I have like people that I would like love to have on my podcast And when I'm doing outreaches and stuff like I'll just go through and I just like will reach out to one of them So that's like one thing that I do so once they've confirmed Then we set up with the studio and then I like coordinate schedules Whatever we set up a time and then I make an outline and you guys will see that okay guys So it is Monday night at 8 30 p.m. I'm currently working on the outline tomorrow is a big Recording day so I have both outlines done the alley web outline and the pretty basic outline Which is gonna be really good. So it's basically just things to jog my memory. It's very helpful to have these So I like definitely recommend this if you're doing a podcast to have an outline So you have like some sort of direction so like I'll do research Thinking lots of thinking hot sea questions more thinking what I kind of really want to talk about and like make sure the conversation is like Very conversational and very loosely guided But there still is a point because it's not just gonna go like I love tangents But you still want like some good content, you know, so we're gonna head off to the studio right now This is exciting. I'm gonna first show you guys what I pack in my bag for the studio for studio days How many times can I say that okay? I will pack my laptop and my iPad case. I already have some books in here I have an iPad charger. I'm gonna be my laptop charger My airpods are already in my purse and then I also just have like books and whatever random and stuff that I need in here I normally do have like coffees and waters, but I have so much time today So I am gonna go pick some stuff up before so for my outfit today I normally will just wear like like leggings a hoodie like something really casual Especially if I'm doing this after class, but it's summer so it's a little bit too hot for that and we're starting to actually record these So I wanted to wear something a little bit cuter. I just threw on I thought I was in wear this denim jacket But I guess Cocoa is I just threw on an Eritzia black tank top these tank tops are amazing this black Mini skirt is from free people. It's the best one. It has the best but it's amazing I'll have this all linked down below this jacket is from nasty gal I've been obsessed with it lately and I've been getting so many compliments. It's just so cute And then I'm just wearing easy sneakers. I'm a big sneaker gal So like I said, I'm heading off to the studio. I record in the geo media studios They're really cool You guys probably see them on my Instagram and everything all the time I'm like pretty much live there pro tip that I really like to do is I like to be like so many episodes ahead so that I'm never behind But now I'm like 15 episodes out So I'm like really trying to get it to where they'll let me post six episodes a month instead of four Because I have like way too much stuff and it's way too backlog But I was like to be very prepared and pre-record like today. We're literally recording three episodes So I'm gonna head off to get some matcha before I record I just like having like a drink and having a second and whatever thing with podcasting is like you have to be So on because you're with other people and you have to dislike really beyond one And so I like really like to be on one so in order to do that I listened to Beyonce live on the way pretty much every single time. I do this before every single big meaning I do it before every single recording. I do it all the time. It really makes a huge difference My friend Christina told me about this forever ago, and I still do it all the time and that's what my best episode It's come so we're gonna listen to Beyonce live Okay, I need you guys to send me videos of you and your friends listening to Beyonce live cuz once you start you'll understand what I'm saying Okay, so we're gonna go to get some matcha a cha cha matcha on Robertson It's like one of my favorite places if you guys live in LA you gotta go they have them in New York, too But it's like literally the best thing ever So I got just my ice matcha latte with oat milk. It's so good. The people here are so nice guys I just love cha cha matcha, and then I just got these power ball things. I get hungry I just wanted to snack in the studio. I have my cha cha matcha. Well, it's just matcha I don't know why I keep saying cha cha matcha. It's just one of those things. That's really fun to say Anyways, I'm on my way to the studio the people there are so nice. I'm like going past cha cha matcha They're so nice and so cute and like every time I come in they're just so nice to me so anyways My studio is like literally around the corner. It's really close to here, and we have complimentary valet Well, it's not really complimentary. It's validated, but you get it. It's like my favorite thing I love that and I love my valet guys like we're really tight and BFS and they know what my life I know about theirs ask about the kids, you know In the studio Very exciting About to record our first episode. All right guys. I'm on to recording number two. Look who's here Remy I feel like Remy you're literally the most dedicated you always know what's up this morning. Yes, I literally just promoted it Like it's like really really impressive Yeah, I really know I'm like this is my makeshift tripod that I use and then So just recorded with Ali it went incredible. I just hit my arm and Now I'm recording it for me and Alicia. Um, oh my gosh. Whoa. What are we talking about today? Oh, yeah So I didn't tell you guys Well, I have our outline Here we are we have our outline getting ready Wow, also, we were started. Oh, there's Taylor my favorite thing about Taylor is when I'm recording or something sometimes Or like there's photos. Sometimes you just see like the man bun What would you do what would Lauren do with her Instagram stories of you my hair It's time to cut it. I think give it one more month and it'll be done. I'll be back to my I Lots of love it lots of love it here. We are recording Perfect Well, they both have been on this podcast before but separately and it was before you guys were even pretty basic I think yeah, we at least recorded before when you recorded it like you did it at your house, right? Yeah, I remember hearing about that and then we did it here, but yeah really early on We just wrapped the second recording Yeah Two sessions today I just finished two recordings with Ali and then with pretty basic so Alicia and Remy and they went great They're all I mean, I love Alicia and Remy and our friends But Ali was awesome and I really excited for that episode to come out So by the time that this is up the pretty basic one will at least be up and then Ali one should be I have like 15 other episodes that it recorded I tried to space them out and kind of have some that are like more entertaining more like thought-provoking like last week I had a more serious one so this week I'm trying to like have a fun one with Alicia and Remy and like leadership and then I'll do Productivity like kind of mix it up. So it's not the same thing every single time So it is now Basically my lunch break. I guess I have an hour in 10 minutes until my next session and the next session Taylor and I are recording So episode and shows and ads so it's gonna be really fun I'm excited for that and then yeah, I'm gonna show you guys at lunch Just like branding stuff I've been working on I'll show you guys a little bit of things of like how I do my stories How I just like promoting and stuff like that We have a whole video team as well through your media that does a bunch of my like social Post so a lot of those stuff either like long it does them or your media does them So it's like a whole team. It's really cool But I just love this like it's one of those things where like I leave the studio And I feel so much better doesn't matter what's going on in my life And I'm having a really bad day if I leave the studio I'm like literally I just feel like amazing like it just puts me in the best mood So I'm gonna get sweet green and then I'll talk to you guys there and show you guys the stuff that I've been working on Just parked heading in the sweet green for my healthy lunch Here is my lunch. I just got a salad from sweet green and I'm just gonna sit up here and do some work It's really loud. I left my Apple Pen at the studio for sure So right now I have some emails to answer from guests that want to come on and scheduling that are gonna be in town Also, I used good notes. I'll show you guys a sneak peek at some stuff that's going on so for stories I like to use the app 8 millimeter and then that's where you guys see all these stories that are my highlight I actually just posted one But if you guys go to my Instagram, then you guys will see podcasts. I haven't ever taken any of these off really So it's 44 weeks ago. It's like with Chris a bunch of guests that I have It's just like this whole thing of all of the podcast. Oh my god. That's all the old branding But we did a lot of really cool stuff Like lots of really really cool stuff So this is a bunch of like just stuff that I've done for promotion and all of that We're working on new covers as you guys can see. So this is gonna be so cool So many options like I'm just absolutely obsessed with all of this stuff. I think it's just so freaking cute Okay, so we're in the second session Taylor's about to come in so quickly I'm giving you a tour here's where Taylor sits all of that equipment my art stuff is normally up here We have cameras now because we're videotaping stuff. This is the table. I set out do media our mics Headphones I always use since the tripod the beautiful view like it's actually Unreal and then here's the camera set up me again, but this is the studio super super fun Very very cute. All right guys. We're recording the third episode of the day We're doing a 73 questions. Taylor's asking my questions Taylor do you have anything to say to the vlog? I'm curious to find out something to answer these questions myself. Really? They're good questions. See here's the thing Taylor knows majority of what happens in my life I was telling Alicia and run me this I'm like he probably knows more about boys stuff than like most of my friends There was something you said earlier that I'm not gonna say because I don't know if I can yet Yeah, I've heard it but when you turn that off I'm gonna ask you about it Okay, yep, perfect So we just recorded another solo episode and now I have an ad read for fabletics to read I can't show you this but basically that's like all the ads that you guys hear throughout the podcast So I'm gonna do that. I normally will record like intros and ads together I record an intro every week So it's more current because a lot of my episodes are recorded Like sometimes like three months before so then I'll do an intro Every week so it's more current and like up to date and it's not like I don't feel like the episode is so old when I post it So it's already right now. Hey guys I just really quickly wanted to talk to you guys about fabletics. You guys know me You know that I love working out. I basically have moved into my hop alati studio It's very annoying of me, but like I'm constantly working out What the heck Does this happen often taylor? Oh my gosh, okay, now we're gonna do the intro for this week's episode taylor's always on these They're like probably like five to ten minutes, but this one is going to be a shorter run And yeah, wow, I love this q&a. How does it you've never I've never seen you in this chair before should I let my hair down? Oh, let's let's see. What is it? What does it do? What does it look like? I don't know I never wear it down. So let's see it's so much law. I like always forget how long it is until I see it on lauren's stories Let's see what looks best Yeah I can't tell there you go. Keep it down. It's already done. It's already done So this is my producer taylor if you guys have not already gathered Um, I've already talked about this multiple times, but basically for my podcast I'm with dear media, which is my network and he's my producer So you do like I would you do like the majority of stuff. Yeah, you've probably heard my voice multiple times multiple times He does intros with me. Um, he knows basically everything about my life. Um, it's a really great job I was telling leisha and rami that I'm like he has to listen to me talk. I'm like I feel so bad for him There's a lot of things that I hear that I can't really talk about because when when someone else is here I can't say oh, what's going on with this because like I can't you don't know if they know exactly So I have to be somewhat I have to maneuver. It's like maneuvering around a line Mind field where you don't know where to step. So that's why I usually wait because then even today Even he waited a second later like right. We need to remove that from the episode. So yeah, I pay attention Yes, he knows he knows So, um, we just have some questions. We're gonna be answering about the podcast You do more of the technical side of it. I don't really do that. So people are asking Oh for hosting platforms. Yeah, like what do you do for hosting platforms stuff like that? So there's a couple different options right now I know for I know for a fact that the two leading one is anchor and I think anchor had something to do anchor Just got bought out by Spotify And they are a like a full full spectrum like hosting platform We use Libsyn for all of our shows and we've used a very a couple of different ones of them I think Libsyn is the most functional. It's easy to use Anchor might be the number two for it. So And if you're doing your own podcast like yeah, they're all fairly easy It's more or less a lot of both of both sites or tech all sites that you go to have the A very very in-depth of like how to guides to kind of what to name it like what your rss feed is the rss feed is the an rss is a signal that gets sent out and so when you when you download a podcast It's all coming from one place and that's what Libsyn is or what the hosting platform is So it gets sent out. So you're not really downloading from anything It's pulling from an rss feed and through Libsyn or through Through the story through anchor or some of the other options It's all an rss feed is that you're getting and they're all easy and functional to use. So it's more or less preference Okay, I'm so glad I don't have to do that. Um, okay They want to know about how we work together on creating episodes Well, I told Taylor that he could never leave my show because I would literally die. So that's that I want to say there the good thing with you is you're you're really easy to work with and I not everybody is like this She's you're really good with with taking criticism and not like there is there's never been a whole lot of criticism But taking criticism and being able to pivot for it. Yeah, so there hasn't needed We haven't needed a whole lot of like shifting in the episodes, you know, like in the beginning in the beginning I want to say the the intro and outro was more or less Just you kind of saying like let's get into it and then you now you've added You know adding like a you know five minute personal touch to it We've made pivots here and there that I think I think strengthen it I think one of the next ones that we're going to do is we're going to add intro music Yeah, I know we need to do that. I'm so I don't think that's one of the next things that we're going to do So I'm kind of rebranding it right now. Yeah, exactly. That's that's everything you've done is great So it is like a collaborative effort where we like I like to make sure that if something comes up I will recommend it and again if something's ever a bad idea I always my I think my main duty is to kind of tell you that's not a good idea because Having someone that will tell you hey, that's a great idea when it's not is probably one of the worst Yeah, I would do like business like a yes man or yes person is is a horrible idea So that's something that I don't like to do and yeah anybody else who if anybody listening ever works or somebody like that It's a danger to to dangerous place to be in we just work well together overall It's like a really good team dynamic and you did a really good job We interviewed someone today and it was kind of this is I want it It's not the first person that was outside of the friend group But some or like someone that out of the make general bigger circle exactly So this was the first time that I would say That was like a bigger deal and it was great. You did a good job So I think that realistically you don't need a whole lot of of like like pointers or anything I think I think you're natural. Oh, thanks. Um people want to know how Michael is as a boss Okay, so I've worked with Michael. This is I've got a good answer I've worked for Michael for almost 10 years in various businesses This is I want to say the third or fourth one now that I've helped him with So I've been with them through thick and thin and as a friend. He's great. He's loyal He's a really friend third 12 too. Yeah, he's a very very hard worker But I would say the one thing that I I think is his biggest trait of why I stick with them Is because I believe in his drive and his Wherever he has like an vision to go. He will do everything in his power to get there So he's not someone that just says like hey, I want to do this and this and this and this He will do his best to get there and he's always in the shift with me like we're in the boat row So if it fails, I know that it's a collective failure. It's the same thing I never want to let him down. I know that he doesn't want to let me down So there is that kind of trust and I think that all of his employees have that So he's a very very loyal person and he's a damn hard worker and no, this is not bullshit I tell him I will tell this to his face and and of course I give I if something if he's for some reason if he's doing something that I'm thinking it's not a good idea I'm very honest with him and I think that's one of the strong points of my relationship with him Is it is not again? It's the same thing. I'm not always like, yeah great idea great idea And I think that it is like a two-way street with that And I think I think I'm a good employee to him and I'm a good friend And again, I I don't even like to consider myself an employee of his because I am a friend of his first and a Like technical employee. Yeah, but like more of like a partner. Yeah, exactly So I never really used I never even think of it in that regard, but he trusts me He's as good as he seems and he's as nice of a person as he comes off. Yeah, he really is. He really is Okay, people are asking how did I decide on a name for your podcast? I should have looked them up because we talked about this on an intro recently I'm gonna look them up and cut in here and like talk about this Okay, guys, it was me from the future and I pulled up finally the email Which I don't even think I sent over a whole email. These names are awful Terrible and like I love the I love you switch name, but I also hate it. So like whatever It's really I just love you with Kandil Smith, which we must have switched to I'll be so much I always say you either will or you you either do it or you don't or like you are you aren't Basically, so we're trying to pull with that which it was just too difficult Um boss things with kandil Smith and I said hate this That's literally it and the way to say I love you so much Um, you know what? Did you just make friends for a lot? Oh taylor wanted friends for life You could also combine with you move me with kandil the bit Current I was in Greece at this time. Yeah, so Glad we didn't I'll be so much That is all but I just liked the reason I went with I love you so much is because iosm for branding purposes And what did you say you said it came full circle or something? Yeah, so it has to do with a lot of the people that you have on are They're fans of yours now even even the one that you had today at the end She's like, oh my god, you're so great And she said you need to have I need to have you come on her show which we definitely do And I think it is like once people get into the the room with you And they feel your energy at the end it is this kind of like this back and forth this this ah shit, what's the term this understanding of Of you it's like this appreciation this like mutual appreciation for each other Or it is like when they walk away or like hey like I love you in the sense of like I I appreciate what you do. It's like as a fan as a as a new fan or as just you know Someone that's coming on the show regardless if it's someone you know or not I think when they walk walk away, there is that like that love I want to leave feeling refreshed and like better than when they walked in like in the sense of like anything in my life But especially like podcasts like that's not even like why do the podcast but like as far as like guess go And that's also like goes behind like a lot of what I've noticed is like hospitality And that's what I get from zoa So like there's a lot of the reason that I am the way I am or like certain things it all comes from that But that is it the camera's dying or else I'd ask more questions But hope you guys enjoy this q&a let us know if you guys want to see more And I'm going to be doing answering a few more things but we're done. Listen to the podcast. Listen to the podcast I'll have a link down below. Um, and can I have some of the clips from? Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, definitely. Okay, perfect So I'm gonna leave because I've been in the studio since like forever and it's time to get out of here It's over with it's as close. We're done done for today. Good job guys Okay, I'm now leaving and I'm heading home Good day. We recorded so much Okay guys, it is the next day. I know my camera died in the middle of that outro I hope you guys enjoyed I'm sure there's gonna be all my questions and I didn't obviously there's no way I can cover everything If you guys want to see a part two or you want to see like specific things Let me know.
