In this episode of the PublishPress Podcast, I talk with Austin Ginder, a host who was overwhelmed when AI-driven hacking attempts surged in February 2026. He explains how he responded, and how he went from AI skeptic to using it as a core part of his security work.
In this episode of the PublishPress Podcast, I talk with Ross Morsali, developer of Search & Filter, who argues that AI’s real power isn’t vibe-coding but deep research. He explains how he used it to find new ways to make search fast on WordPress sites with tens of thousands of posts.
In this episode of the PublishPress Podcast, I talk with Jason Cohen, who has founded four companies, sold two and built two unicorns, including WP Engine. He talks about his new book, Hidden Multipliers, and its practical ideas on pricing, customer research and profitability for WordPress businesses.
In this episode of the PublishPress Podcast, I talk with Nathan Wrigley and Dan Maby about Show.fm, their new “PodOps” platform for running a podcast from start to finish. Instead of launching a minimum viable product, they went all-in and built a polished, full-featured platform to compete in a crowded market. Nathan and Dan walk through guest management, team permissions, automations, AI guest research, and their guest directory. We also talk about rebranding right before launch and their capped Founders Deal.
In this episode of the PublishPress Podcast, I talk with Nic Taylor, co-founder of Livid.com. Nick and his colleagues loved working at StreamYard, until Bending Spoons took over its parent company and they were laid off. They got the team back together to build Livid, a video hosting alternative to Vimeo, which is another Bending Spoons acquisition. We talk about how these acquisitions lead to price hikes, how Livid makes it easy to migrate videos and swap WordPress embeds, how to break into a crowded market, and why they chose real human support over AI bots.
