šļø Beyond the Conversation: How AI Can Turn Connection Into Community
A Conversation with PodGlue Founder Junaid Ahmed
What if one of the most powerful things AI can help us build isnāt more contentābut stronger human connection?
In this episode, Iām joined by my friend Junaid Ahmed, founder of PodGlue, longtime creator and podcaster, and someone I first came to know through the Smart Passive Income community.
After hundreds of podcast conversations, Junaid began noticing a very human problem: we can spend an hour deeply connecting with someone, publish the episodeā¦and then lose track of the relationship that began there.
That insight helped inspire PodGlueāand our larger conversation about how AI and technology can empower solopreneurs not only to do more, but to remember, reconnect, and turn conversations into community. Junaidās own work describes this as a gap in podcasting: the industry built increasingly sophisticated tools for creating episodes, while paying much less attention to what happens to the conversation afterward.
