Is your podcast starting to feel a little too serious? In this episode of The Flow, Doc sits down with Caleb Dempsey — creator of the Seriously Unserious newsletter (https://unserious.club) — to explore how bringing more play, experimentation, and joy into your creative process can actually make your show stronger.
You’ll learn:
🎲 Why play is essential for creativity and longevity
🧠 How curiosity and silliness spark better ideas
🎙️ Ways to loosen up your show format without losing focus
🤝 How “getting unserious” helps you connect more deeply with your audience
⚡ Practical prompts to reignite fun in your content
This episode is your permission slip to stop overthinking, start playing, and rediscover why you fell in love with creating in the first place.
** Please note: this is the LAST episode of The Flow in 2025. We'll be taking a break and will be back again in 2026 **
