Sup y’all 👋
Lemme be real with you — this is not a paid ad.
One of the biggest questions we get is: ‘How the heck do you produce so much daily content?’
Today’s show is part of the answer: Castmagic. It’s one of about 5 GenAI tools we use daily.
And full disclosure —Castmagic is not paying us. We just like the tool that much.
And the thing we love is that you can use Castmagic not just for podcasts, but to repurpose any of your content.
Meetings = endless content automagically
Sales calls = targeted emails, instantly
YT videos = on demand treasure chest
Got us thinking — would you want a behind-the-scenes look at how we produce our content with AI, including Castmagic?
We’ve used it for about 120+ hours since Day 1, so we’ve got some crazy content hacks, obviously.

🦾How You Can Leverage:
Secret’s out — Castmagic is a tool we use daily to produce Everyday AI.
Like. Every. Dang. Day.
See those show notes in our podcast? Castmagic.
A bunch of ideas behind the scenes powering our daily content? Castmagic.
The transcript on our episodes page? Castmagic. (You think we do that manually!?)
So, we stole some time (and ideas) from Castmagic’s Co-founder, Blaine Bolus.
We talked high-level on problems with AI-generated content, how to fix it, and some practical advice for anyone who wants to produce more human-centric content with AI.
Here’s the Magic 🪄 ….
… written by a human named Jordan 😜
1 – AI content can be a bad thing 😳️
Bet you didn’t expect that take from Blaine.
You know, the Co-founder of a successful company that helps people create AI content.
But we couldn’t agree more.
So much of AI-generated content is flaming hot garbage. Sorry Billy Boys pedaling magical ChatGPT prompts — they don’t work.
Blaine talked about the low-barrier of AI content is actually a bad thing. And, that consumers are being inundated with a bunch of terrible AI-generated content.
He gave us some secrets for his own Castmagic workflow, and the way he gets rid of the dreaded ‘Delves’ of AI generated content.
Try this:
We’ve got the cure. For reals.
If you HAVEN’T taken our free Prime, Prompt, Polish course yet, why the frick not?
It’ll turn your AI efforts from hot garbage outputs to HOT DANG outputs!
Just reply to this email with PPP and we’ll send ya the sign up info.
2 – Context is King 👑
Your voice. Your context.
That’s one of the great things about using your actual voice as inputs when creating AI-generated content.
You can use copy-and-paste prompts, but that’s going to legit give you cookie cutter responses.
Your voice is unique. Your viewpoints are unique. That’s something a large language model can’t capture.
But tools like Castmagic can.
Try this:
We’ve talked about Castmagic once or thrice.
In our (super underrated!) 7 Ways to Use AI in Your Business in 2024 episode, we talked about how you can use your voice and tools like Castmagic to produce more human-sounding content at scale.
Give that a listen, and check that newsletter here.
3 – AI + authenticity can co-exist 🤝
The crux of our convo?
There’s a happy place where you can use AI to generate content AND still be authentic.
That’s the magic of Castmagic, in our opinion.
Blaine talked about the different use-cases and highlights of using your own voice as the input, vs. just typing something into a LLM.
Your voice reflects you.
Your opinions and tendencies.
Your ideas and ideals.
It’s actually a cheat-code for authenticity in an AI-generated world.
Try this:
Check out some of the use-cases of Castmagic that we love — from coaches and sales calls to your AI meeting assistant and customer discovery.
