ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What if the biggest mistake most content creators make…is talking too much?
Today I sit down with Julian Rogers, a veteran Caribbean journalist who’s spent over 6 decades interviewing everyone from politicians to everyday people and he has strong opinions about how content should be created.
In this episode we’ll cover
Why silence can be more powerful than talking, and how leaving gaps can expose truth… especially when someone isn’t being honest.
Julian also explains why preparation is non-negotiable, including the extreme lengths he’s gone to just to be competent enough to ask the right questions.
And we go deep on storytelling why most modern content misses the human impact, and how one event can ripple across families, communities, and history itself.
And finally, he breaks down why storytelling isn’t about headlines, but about understanding who is affected, how, and why that story actually matters.
If you’re a creator, journalist, podcaster, or business owner using content to build trust, this episode will recalibrate how you show up on camera.
Enjoy my conversation with Julian.
