Why I sat through two videos and kept trying to think where have I seen this young man before and ah! Think media. Love what you’re doing. Keep up the great work! 💪🏾😎
I started my video podcast a month ago, I'm not nearly at the success as Omar but my subscribers and views increase with each episode. I'm just having REAL discussions with REAL people, and it's insane how much each guest opens up and becomes vulnerable with me. I have had SO much outreach from viewers on how much the stories have helped them deal with their own struggles. Thank you Omar for sharing this amazing content, it has helped me build the courage to follow my passion!
"That's incredible to hear! Real, heartfelt conversations make such a powerful impact, and it's amazing that your podcast is already helping so many people. Keep up the great work!"
Started my podcast 5 weeks ago. End already it's been quite a ride of struggle, joy, desperation and fulfillment. A lot of things to learn and figure out, but all we can do is to try to make it better with every episode. Thank you for the quality content! It helps a lot. From choosing the cameras to inspiration.
Awesome episode! It took me so long to realize that even though my podcast style uploads didn't have the most views, they had the most impact for my overall business! I'm pivoting more into this direction in 2024.
We just restarted our podcast and it’s been amazing so far In the past month we’ve had 67 watch hours 12k views (including shorts) and 22 more subs. The long form supports our long form and engagement is up 570% on ig alone.
That's amazing progress in such a short time! Your dedication is clearly paying off, and it's inspiring to see your engagement growing so rapidly. Keep up the fantastic work!
Bro, Abby literally dropped fire! I go back-and-forth so much with myself sometime when I rewatch something that I record because I don’t like it and I think that it makes me look crazy instead of listening to the actual message that I’m trying to deliver. I am so much more critical of myself than I’m sure other people are, and I just need to get over it! I love this episode, and I love everything that you guys are putting out on this channel 1:03:19
Thank you for sharing your passion! The people who join your podcast believe in you and what youre doing vecause they know your character! Im just getting started in my UA-cam journey and I found an amazing support group of people who know what I've been doing and they're in board with my mission - to teach soul-winning and biblical discipleship!
Best yet simplest lesson you taught me starting the year, Just hit Record, and in my case _ do what you were already doing. 🎉Now it’s getting easier to create content and build the confidence
Great Content Omar you have motivated me to just go for it and My father and I are already surprised with the Comments and feedback we are getting from our community. Big things happening in 2024
Yes he has connections. But those came from YEARS of serving in a “hidden” position. That takes patience and character. I think the guests are the unexpected fruit of an incredible work ethic.
It’s all perspective and the willing to make it happen. Omar could have easily not acted on any of this. Some of us don’t have to try hard and some actually have to make the effort. Either way we still have the same opportunities. Just in a different lens.🙌
As someone starting I can safely say it’s not easy without the connections, but one good guest introduces you to the next good guest and it gets better from there. Thanks for encouraging us to start Omar, long way to go though😅
Thank you so much! This paired with Jena Kutcher’s Podcast Lab course is giving me everything I need to start my show with clarity and confidence (no pun intended). 😊 Keep serving. Keep growing. 🙏🏿
i started my podcast about competition bbq because of Omar content gameplan video, im on episode 4 this week, and im shooting mine live on youtube every tuesday. Hopefully doing my show live wont hurt my growth ?
Thank you, Omar for sharing this content , my co-host and I started doing audio for about a year and transitioned to video last year probably about six months ago We are about 51 episodes in. I am getting some good content ideas to shore up our podcast. Thanks again!
What’s the most practical way to film long form content to cut up into short for IG clips? Like what’s your set up? I find that I also film on my phone or my long form content is way too zoomed in. Any tips on this?
"All ways work if you work it. You need to find your system. Pull principles and then you create systems out of principles that would work regardless." ❤❤❤ Note to self😊
I have the M3 max MacBook with 36gb with 30 core gpu, 1tb, I use it to edit 45 minute podcast episodes. Should I return it and get the 48gb and 40 core gpu max 3 ? Thanks
Hey Omar will you be hosting a challenge every month? I would love to join you as a VIP in the near future. Also it’s cool seeing a fellow student of Myron Golden host his own challenge and thrive 👏🏽💪🏽
Omar, I am familiar with The Think Media UA-cam podcast, and it's cool to “know” someone from “Behind The Scenes.” I respect your knowledge and expertise. I watched your podcast when you had Myron Golden on, subscribed, and have been watching ever since. You mentioned the $2K studio equipment giveaway. I know you're a pastor. I believe you're integral. I was just curious if someone received it. Do you have a checklist of what's needed to start a podcast and your process? It seems like a team is needed to do a podcast, requiring a considerable time commitment. I’m interested, but not sure I have the time and resources.

43:19 It’s actually from *Big Daddy when Scuba Steve tells the delivery guy (Rob Schneider) he can’t read 😂 But it might have been said in Happy Gilmore also, I don’t remember l. Both Adam Sandler Classics
"let her rip" or "let it rip" is something I would have totally said as well lol Is it just me that feels old around Gen Z when ganged up on? hahahaha This podcast is always fire, thanks guys!!
Galatians 6:4 - Pay careful attention to your own work, forfor then you will get the satiation of a job will done, and you won’t need to compare yourself to anyone else.
I started my video Podcast in Feb 2024. I’m trying to keep it as authentic as possible with minimal editing. I think it’s important for viewers to see authenticity. However I’m seeing that shorts could potentially kill your channel. Thoughts on this?
Please stop shutting the young man down and just remarks. Hopefully. You will mentor him to value his voice. Why shut him down using his Ipad to provide value of your stats. Anyway, your conversations are valuable. I value your content. Please lift the young men up on your show. Sometimes you let him complete a sentence but most of the time you’re competing with your knowledge. This is out of love. They are as much as valuable as the successful people you interview. Please and thank you.
I might be in the minority with this, but I literally always skip the backstory of guests on my favorite podcasts. I’m watching because I already trust the host and if the guest intrigues me enough, I dive into their own content and hear their story that way.
Okay. Again. He suggests the idea of starting his own podcast and you shut him down with shame added to it. You may not know this is a thing but I have listed to at-least 8 of your podcast videos that are packed with wonderful and knowledge over the top. If you could tweek your approach in empathy with the young man and respect. Omg. Stop putting him down. It makes me loose respect for you. Really. Your mentoring him but you want and speak like he is stupid. Come on man. I have learned from you over the past two to maybe three years. You are awesome. So show up awesome in your presentation with support and lifting the young man up. It like. You listen and validate him and he gets on a confident roll and then you plow him over like a wave of push and pull. Anyway. I hope this changes. I followed you over hear after you left think media. Bit this just has to change for your best interest if not that then get an adult you respect to be a part of your podcast conversation.
Omar, got this link in an email from you - it asks to tag you in Instagram if we share it. In your video a few days ago you were a tad cranked that your Insta was banned...did you get it back?
Thanks Bunches for this episode. Really loving the Podcast! ❤ Just started my solo Podcast in January and looking forward to growing 🎉. Would love to hear more on how to apply this info for solo podcasters.

Great Content Omar you have motivated me to just go for it and My father and I are already surprised with the Comments and feedback we are getting from our community. Big things happening in 2024
Would you have the same success without the connections you had with some of your guest?
No. He has been grinding for years on his own and with Think Media. Can’t compare my or your success to his.
Yes he has connections. But those came from YEARS of serving in a “hidden” position. That takes patience and character. I think the guests are the unexpected fruit of an incredible work ethic.
The other thing is why don’t you try making those connections by trying you can only find even better guests. Just gotta do it
It’s all perspective and the willing to make it happen. Omar could have easily not acted on any of this.
Some of us don’t have to try hard and some actually have to make the effort. Either way we still have the same opportunities. Just in a different lens.🙌
