rich 1.0 Most creators don’t fail because they lack talent. They fail because they never protect what they’re building. In this episode, I sit down with Gordon Firemark, known as The Podcast Lawyer, to unpack the legal side of content creation that nobody talks about until it’s too late. We discuss copyrights, trademarks, contracts, guest agreements, fair use, AI lawsuits, podcast protection, and why every creator should start treating their content like a business from day one. If you’re building a podcast, YouTube channel, coaching business, or personal brand, this conversation could save you from costly mistakes while helping you build something that lasts. In this episode we cover: * Copyright vs trademark * Fair use explained * Podcast guest agreements * Protecting your podcast brand * AI and copyright lawsuits * Creator legal mistakes * Contracts every creator needs * Podcasting as a business * Protecting intellectual property * Building a sustainable creator business You worked to Listen Bitch Presents TELL ME WHY YOU'RE SPECIAL https://audioboom.com/channels/5166895-listen-bitch-presents-tell-me-why-you-re-special Audioboom https://audioboom.com 480 95 https://audioboom.com/i/43445070/600x600/c 600 600 <iframe width="100%" height="95" src="https://embeds.audioboom.com/posts/8926018/embed?v=202301" style="background-color: transparent; display: block; padding: 0; width: 100%" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="allowtransparency" scrolling="no" title="Audioboom player" allow="autoplay" sandbox="allow-downloads allow-forms allow-popups allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-storage-access-by-user-activation allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation"></iframe>
