Breaking the Algorithm with Humor: Making LinkedIn Weird

About this episode

In this episode, Bill Yost discusses how to create engaging LinkedIn content by blending humor with industry insights.

Data analytics might not sound like the recipe for viral content, unless you’re Bill Yost. A longtime Google and Netflix analytics pro turned chronic LinkedIn poster, Bill has built a following by mixing sharp industry insight with humor, relatability, and a little bit of chaos. In this episode, we talk about finding your creative lane, the unexpected pros and cons of going viral, building a community that’s deeper than your follower count, and why your “niche” might not be as narrow as you think.
