Michelle Obama's Podcast off to a slow start
2025-03-14
[DailyFetched] The first episode, released on Wednesday, features her older brother, Craig Robinson, where they recalled their "diverse and changing neighborhood" and guidance from their late parents, Marian Shields Robinson and Fraser C. Robinson III.

However, the show is failing to connect with viewers.

The show's first three episodes failed to clear 20,000 views on YouTube's disastrous start for a former first lady who even has big tech propping her up.
------------------------------------------
The less than 20k is the average. The first podcast hit about 40k, the second and third were much less. The low viewership is to be compared to the much higher viewership she had back in 2020, although that was for just one podcast and also, it was in the pioneering stage of podcasts. Also she shares the screen with her brother in the 2025 podcasts which may offput some women

#3  Podcasts do best when they provide a variety of perspectives. That is not going to happen on Michelle’s podcast.

#1  Perhaps she can do a podcast with Meghan "Sussex"? The vacuity, narcissism, and hubris would be outstanding
