The Podcast Mistake That Almost Lost Four Episodes
from My Favorite Mistake: Learning Without Blame in Business and Leadership · host Mark Graban
The usual host of this podcast being interviewed this time... Show notes: https://www.markgraban.com/mistake16 My guest for Episode #16 of "My Favorite Mistake" is Jamie V. Parker... she's the guest host. This gets complicated... she was my guest (as the guest) for Episode #8, where she shared her favorite mistake. Today, she's the guest host and she's interviewing me about a recent mistake that I made, a combination of errors and problems that almost led to me losing four episodes that had been recorded, but not released. I also talk about something that might be a "favorite mistake" from my days working in manufacturing, a mistake that I wrote about in the book Practicing Lean (and Jamie also contributed a chapter to that book. Another thing Jamie and I have in common is podcasting, so please check out her podcast here. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/favorite-mistake/support

What this episode covers
In this special episode, the tables are turned as Jamie V. Parker interviews Mark Graban about a recent mistake that nearly wiped out multiple podcast episodes. A hard drive failure combined with faulty assumptions created a classic near miss. The conversation explores backups, Swiss-cheese failures, and why learning from near misses matters just as much as learning from disasters. It’s a candid reflection on process design, ownership, and continuous improvement—far beyond podcasting.
