#1 growth blocker
Episode hooks start too soft
Recent episode descriptions spend too many opening characters on setup instead of answering why the episode matters right now.
Business Wars scores 75/100 because the show has real topic signal around privacy, https, art19, but the packaging is inconsistent where growth is usually won.

Tightening those areas would make the feed easier to discover, easier to click, and easier to remember between episodes.
