In this episode, Sebastian Rusk emphasizes the importance of implementing a booking system for podcast guests to streamline the scheduling process. He acknowledges the chaos and frustration that can arise from the back-and-forth of finding a mutually convenient time. Describing the traditional method as "absolute complete madness and chaos," Sebastian highlights the need for a better way to manage bookings, as he underscores the importance of setting boundaries and specific days and times for recording podcast episodes.

QUOTES:

• “So my availability is in real time. When someone clicks on the time, they know that I am in fact available and I know I'm in fact available.”
• "Do not go the prehistoric route of asking people to be on the podcast and then it never happens because there's no followup or asking somebody to be on your podcast and then playing the, are you available calendar game that is just organized chaos."
• “Once you have that done, once you have that down pat, you can then book more podcast guests, not have to worry about whether or not that person booked or not, whether or not have all their information.”
