I've been a guest on about a hundred podcast episodes.
Every one of those conversations, I answered questions. I told my stories. I explained how to set up a home studio, why the gear matters less than the message, why you have to do the reps.
And then the episode went live on someone else's feed, and all of that teaching just sat there. Scattered across a hundred shows I don't control.
This week I was on a call with Michael Fritz, who hosts the Authority Pipeline. He put words to something I'd been circling for years: when you guest on shows, you're flinging seed everywhere. It grows out there in the wild. But nobody ever goes back and harvests.
His process: collect your interviews, turn them into text, and let AI show you what you actually teach. The topics you return to every time. The stories you can't stop telling. The questions every host asks you. Then organize that into a workshop, teach it live, refine it, and only record it once it's dialed in.
I got off that call and thought: PodGlue guests should have this built in.
What shipped
There's a new Workshops section in the PodGlue guest dashboard.
If you've imported and transcribed your appearances, one button does the harvesting. PodGlue reads across everything you've said on every show and drafts a workshop blueprint: your recurring themes, your signature stories, the questions hosts keep asking you, the advice you give without realizing it's a process.
Then it organizes all of that into a module-by-module outline with talking points, timings, and workbook prompts. Who the workshop is for. What transformation they walk away with.
And at the bottom, a roadmap that follows Michael's rule: teach it live first. Test the market before you spend a weekend recording something nobody asked for. Gather feedback, refine, and record it once, when it's clear.
You can copy the whole thing as markdown or export it as a file and take it anywhere.
The part that surprised me
I ran it on sample data from my own talks, and the outline it produced was one I'd recognize: studio setup, finding your message, do the reps.
I've been teaching that workshop for years. One interview at a time. For free. I just never sat down and looked at all of it in one place.
That's the whole point. The knowledge is already there. It just needs to be organized.
What's next
Teach the workshop live, then come back and refine the blueprint as you learn what lands. Over time I want the builder to pull in your quote bank and your knowledge base search, so the blueprint gets sharper as your library grows.
If you've been guesting on shows and wondering when it starts paying you back, this is one answer. Your interviews are the raw material. PodGlue gives them a home, and now it helps you harvest them too.
It's live in the guest dashboard. Go look at what you've already planted.

The Dots Were Already There. We Just Connected Them.
A guest page that doesn't link to the episodes. An episode page that doesn't link to the guest. A podcast page that never shows who came on. The information existed. Nobody was surfacing it. We fixed that.
The Deploy Button That Did Nothing
For two months, every backend improvement we shipped quietly went nowhere. The code was written, reviewed, and merged. It just never reached you. Here's how we found out, and what we changed so it can't happen again.
The Blank Box Problem
Every press release needs an 'about the show' paragraph. We added a field for it and then watched everyone leave it empty. So we taught PodGlue to write the first draft.
