Today we’d like to introduce you to Carlie Ramsey.
Hi Carlie, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
Sure! My podcast journey began with the goal of bringing attention to missing black and brown people, as I felt their cases often don’t receive enough visibility. However, as I developed the concept, I found myself increasingly interested in the psychology behind serial killers and how astrology might play a role in their behaviors. This led me to pivot the focus of my podcast to exploring serial killers based on their zodiac signs, creating a unique and intriguing angle for my audience. This shift has allowed me to tap into a blend of true crime and astrology, resonating with listeners in a new way.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
It hasn’t been a completely smooth road. One of the initial challenges was figuring out how to effectively bring attention to the missing black and brown people cases I wanted to cover. There were also struggles in finding the right audience for that content, as it can be a difficult and sensitive topic. When I decided to pivot to serial killers based on their zodiac signs, there were new challenges in researching the accuracy of information and balancing true crime storytelling with the astrological angle, ensuring it remained respectful while still engaging. Adjusting to this shift also meant I had to rebuild momentum and reframe how I presented the podcast to attract a new type of audience. Despite the bumps, the change has allowed me to grow and learn more about content creation.
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I run a podcast that delves into the intriguing intersection of true crime and astrology, where I explore the lives and actions of serial killers based on their zodiac signs. I specialize in blending storytelling with astrological insights, providing a unique perspective on some of the most notorious figures in true crime history.
What sets my podcast apart is this unusual combination of two popular topics—true crime and astrology—that aren’t often discussed together in depth. I’m most proud of how I’ve been able to create something different and engaging from my original concept. What makes it stand out is not only the true crime angle but how I use astrological profiles to deepen the discussion and offer listeners a new lens to view these stories through. I’m proud of the audience I’ve built and the fact that I’ve been able to pivot successfully into a niche that really resonates with people.
Any big plans?
Looking ahead, I plan to continue expanding my podcast by exploring more in-depth cases and possibly branching out into other aspects of astrology beyond just serial killers. I’m considering incorporating interviews with experts in criminology and astrology to provide a more well-rounded perspective for listeners. Additionally, I’d love to build a larger community around the podcast, potentially through live shows, exclusive content, or even a companion blog or book.
Another exciting plan is to potentially collaborate with other creators in the true crime or astrology space to reach new audiences. I’m also looking forward to improving my production quality, maybe even adding video elements to the podcast to engage with a visual audience. Big changes on the horizon include refining the brand and possibly launching related merchandise that ties into the themes of the show. There’s a lot to look forward to!
