Founding Producer The Handsome Hour

Location: Remote within the U.S.; New York City strongly preferred Everyone knows the only jobs after the singularity are going to be podcaster, degenerate gambler, e-girl, and black-market Chinese peptide dealer. Well, Chinese peptides are legal now; we're too smart to be gamblers, and we're not quite desperate enough to become hot girls. The Handsome Hour is a dating podcast hosted by three successful tech founders. We want to turn it into the best show in the world on dating, mating, relationships, status, attraction, masculinity, and "the discourse."

The role: You will own the production cycle: editing, improving audio, shipping clips, coordinating guests, managing publishing, updating the website, building repeatable workflows, identifying gaps, and generally making sure the show gets better every week. You do not need to personally do every task forever. You do need to be the kind of person who figures out what needs to happen and makes it happen. We will help you use AI to get the job done. Ideal background Strong audio editing experience Comfortable with video and social clips Excellent taste for internet-native media High agency and low need for supervision Interested in dating, relationships, masculinity, social dynamics, or the broader mating market Comfortable with risk and able to move fast without being sloppy Entrepreneurial enough to treat this like a founding role, not a gig Experience working with AI Compensation and upside The production output is scoped around roughly 20 hours/week. We don't track your time; you have autonomy over your schedule as long as episodes drop on time and clips keep hitting the feed. The initial compensation is a $2,000/month 1099 retainer plus a performance bonus tied to growth, downloads, and revenue. Prove your agency and competency on the contract, and this can scale into a full-time salaried W2 role with real upside as the network grows. Closer to joining a punk band than taking an internship. A small cadre trying to lift something heavy. Long odds. Real upside. Glory if it works. Embarrassment if it doesn't. Either way, not boring.
