Interviewing’s a grind, but nailing it’s only half the win. The real magic is amplifying the highlight until it’s everywhere: X clips, TikTok memes, newscast audio drops, on-demand replays, YouTube vids, and even press releases that hit TMZ. Never-before-told stories are viral ammo if you know how to promote interviews.
