Shopify Masters

Shopify Masters is one of those rare company-produced podcasts that genuinely earns its audience. Hosted by Shuang Esther Shan, Adam Levinter, and Benjamin Gottlieb, the show drops two episodes a week, each one pulling back the curtain on a real founder's journey or bringing in an industry expert for a focused topic breakdown. With nearly 600 episodes under its belt, the show has built up a seriously impressive guest roster that includes people behind brands like Bombas, Rare Beauty, and Momofuku. What makes this show stand apart from other business podcasts is the specificity. You're not getting vague motivational fluff here. Each episode zooms in on the actual decisions, pivots, and strategies that took a business from zero to something real. The hosts are good at drawing out the messy details -- the failed product launches, the supply chain nightmares, the moment when a founder had to completely rethink their approach. The production quality is polished (Shopify has resources, after all), but the conversations still feel genuine. Guests talk openly about revenue numbers, ad spend, and conversion tactics in a way that gives you something concrete to walk away with. If you sell online or are thinking about starting a store, this is essentially required listening. Even experienced operators will pick up a new angle or two from the sheer variety of businesses featured. It's practical, well-paced, and refreshingly free of hype.
