When we started listening to Mogul's podcast, we couldn't stop hearing about the birth of a number of hip-hop legends that Chris Lighty came across as he built talented performers into global sensations, as well as moguls whose brands partnered with a number of corporations.
Through the stories of talents as well as Chris' own words, listeners also become acquainted with the man himself through his journey in the early days of hip-hop through major labels, as well as launching his own label and highlighting his marketing genius.
In the midst of his greatness, we also learn that Chris Lighty battled a number of demons that
would eventually end his life and leave a legacy of a roadmap that entertainers to this day utilize beyond the music.
REPLY ALL
Gimlet Media/Spotify
Reply All is a podcast about the Internet. The topics that come across each episode span from how Pizza Rat came about, hijacked Uber accounts that are sold on the dark web, and more. A number of episodes also circle back to previous ones to provide updates on stories that they have researched. As we binged a number of episodes, we got the hang of the eclectic conversations and the approach of the team that's always trying to find the truth.
For those that are starting out, we suggest starting at the beginning and as many episodes are around a half hour or so, it's perfect to enjoy while getting work done or during your commute.
