Adam Soccolich (GrowthView): Set Design, Guest Quality & the New Media Playbook
Growth advisor Adam Soccolich explains the collision of media and tech: in the AI revolution, brands need founder voices and authentic channels as traditional media falls short. He digs into the viral "wood-paneled podcast set" trend, arguing set design is a real differentiator — recalling hotel-suite interviews with top writers and CEOs like Sam Altman — and describes his work with My First Million and Lenny's Newsletter, largely sourcing top-tier guests. He sees trad and new media as symbiotic, praises going-direct operators like Lulu Meservey, and coaches founders to build in public and turn every appearance into a content engine, citing Replit's Amjad Masad as the standout example.
