The Internet’s Dumbest Shows Power the Smartest Business

Comedian and podcaster Fin Taylor, the man behind “the internet’s dumbest shows,” sits down with Patreon COO Paige Fitzgerald to unpack how he built one of the fastest-growing, fan-funded podcast businesses out there. With 31K+ paying members, more than 4x growth in a year, and a new tour on the horizon, Fin has turned chaos, comedy, and internet culture into a thriving business—on his own terms. Expect a candid, slightly unhinged look at the business of being online: from turning listeners into paying fans to building something that can actually hold up in today’s volatile video and podcast economy.
