Have you ever faced a professional opportunity that challenged your integrity for the sake of financial security? Today, we're weighing in on a 'Would You Rather' scenario sparked by a real-life story of a producer leaving The Diary of a CEO over misinformation concerns. We explore how podcasters might navigate similar ethical dilemmas in their careers. To wrap up the week, we celebrate our podcasting wins and send our heartfelt support to those affected by the California wildfires.

Please note: we made a small error this morning when setting up the discussion on taking on a podcast gig that you’re not aligned with. The producer we mentioned did not produce The Diary of a CEO. He used that show as an example when telling his own story of being out of alignment with one of his podcast gigs, we apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
