Back to EpisodesPriyanka Aribindi: Podcasting with Crooked Media, Writing on Substack & The Row Park Tote
Description
For the fourth episode of the podcast, Nan sits down with Priyanka Aribindi, a writer, podcast host, and content consultant whose Substack “Shit I Bought And Liked” is a can’t miss shopping newsletter. Both women have newsletters on Substack and love to shop, so they have lots to talk about.
Priyanka recounts her path from working at Time magazine to getting a DM from Crooked Media’s Jon Lovett that led her to move to LA, launch one of their first daily newsletters, and eventually host her own podcast.
Then, both women get honest about the realities of freelance life; the pros, cons, healthcare nightmares, how to scope out projects and what to charge. Next they dive into all things Substack: Priyanka discusses how she built her audience over seven years, when to launch a paid tier, and how she goes about working with brands for partnerships. Plus, Priyanka shares her number-one tip for anyone starting out on substack.
Later the girls switch over to discussing shopping and their shared love of the The Row N/S Park Tote and more details on everything they think about as they shop. The episode closes with Priyanka’s three noteworthy tips for surviving real life: Last Call as a post-drinking supplement, a “dinner list” in her notes app, and leaving her phone in the kitchen overnight for a better night's sleep.
