Haliey Welch’s podcast, Talk Tuah, has skyrocketed in popularity, becoming the third most listened-to podcast in the U.S., following The Joe Rogan Experience and The Tucker Carlson Show. Welch first gained attention after a viral street interview where she coined the phrase “Hawk Tuah.” She later signed a deal with Jake Paul’s Betr Media, which praised her for her unique charisma and connection with audiences.
Welch’s rapid rise has impressed many, especially after she turned down offers from platforms like Playboy and OnlyFans to focus on her podcast. Social media users applauded her for staying genuine and betting on herself, proving she could turn a viral moment into sustained success.
