Jodi Shelton, Co-Founder and CEO of the Global Semiconductor Alliance and Shelton Group, announced the launch of A Bit Personal, a new leadership-focused podcast that pulls back the curtain on the people shaping the future of global technology. Premiering today, the podcast offers an intimate, cinematic look at the personal stories, values, failures, and defining moments of the industry’s most powerful leaders – stories rarely heard beyond earnings calls and keynote stages.
Unlike traditional technology podcasts focused on products and platforms, A Bit Personal centres on the human behind the hardware. Through trust-based, unscripted conversations, Shelton encourages guests to share candid reflections on leadership, ambition, vulnerability, and the moments that shaped who they are today.
“These are the most fascinating people I know, and I can’t wait for you to hear their stories,” said Shelton. “This is A Bit Personal, and it’s going to be good.”
The inaugural season features nine weekly episodes and includes hard-hitting, first-of-their-kind conversations with industry icons such as NVIDIA Founder and CEO Jensen Huang and AMD Chair and CEO Lisa Su. Future episodes will further spotlight a female-led perspective in a traditionally male-dominated industry, with an upcoming series focused on women CEOs and their leadership journeys.
“Over the course of my career, I’ve had a front-row seat to the semiconductor industry’s evolution,” Shelton added. “The leaders who drive economic prosperity and human advancement have become public figures and cultural celebrities. The world wants to know who they are and what drives them. With A Bit Personal, I’m offering listeners a seat at the table – moving past product launches to explore the personal stories, values, failures, and triumphs of the boldest visionaries defining tomorrow.”
Produced with a film-forward, cinematic approach, the podcast blends creative visuals, behind-the-scenes moments, and deeply personal storytelling to deliver what Shelton describes as “not your father’s tech industry podcast.”
New episodes of A Bit Personal release weekly on Thursdays and are available on YouTube and all major podcast platforms. Listeners can also follow along for news and updates on A Bit Personal’s Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn and X channels. Additionally, Jodi’s podcast A Bit Personal is planning to interview the CEOs of Indian semiconductor companies in its upcoming season. Guest announcements and appearances will be revealed gradually—stay tuned.”
