Hala Taha got her start in radio at HOT97, but she was fired before she could advance past her role as an unpaid intern. She was also scouted by MTV, and after a long summer of shooting a reality show with them, MTV pulled the plug with no explanation. Even after multiple failures in the entertainment industry, Hala broke into the podcasting world in 2018 and leveraged her LinkedIn account to grow her podcast.
