Misbah Haque

Producer

Hi 👋🏽 I’m Misbah Haque, founder of Pod Mahal and host of Habit Chess.

In 2016, I started podcasting from my childhood bedroom with no audience or credibility.

Within a year, I landed my dream internship, dream job in the Bay Area, and was producing a show that went on to do over 1 million downloads.

In 2020, I founded Pod Mahal to help others build a body of work through podcasting.

We offer consulting to empower you to own your means of production, as well as done-for-you plans where all you need to do is show up and record.

I also host my own podcast, Habit Chess, where I test and execute these strategies in real-time.

  • "Misbah is worth every dollar and more. After many projects together he still surprises me with how wickedly fast he returns finalized work, and his edits this round made me literally cry laughing on my videos. I look forward to a continuous climb of success with this creator – he is only getting better. You have no idea how much finding Misbah means to me. He just keep finding new ways to prove I found the best, kindest, most hardworking and attentive to detail editor I could have found. I wish he could have been there during the times I couldn’t even say out loud “I need to hire an editor” because I was sooo afraid of trusting someone with my work, Misbah were the exact person I needed. He is the definition of 'IN YOUR CORNER'”

I love meeting my deadlines and goals and you made those possible for me. I really am enjoying telling my story and thinking my thoughts out loud. Thank you for all you bring out to the surface in me. I am thoroughly impressed by what you did to turn this dream of mine into a reality so quickly. THANK YOU again from the bottom of my heart."
