Gone quietFree to claim

Last episode 5 December 2025. Quiet since then.

We worked that label out on 8 November 2026 from the date of the last episode in the feed. How we do it.

Hosted by Tiger Safarov

ZenOne Podcast is a place where we combine our 2 passions. One is to help improve dental practices through efficiency (think of streamlined process, organization, Zen in your office life) and interviewing interesting people.

How the show describes itself, taken from its own feed. We did not write it and we have not edited it.

Influence––Innovation––

Not yet scored

Nobody starts with a number. We score a page once three independent sources back it up, and this one has 3. They are listed further down. The next scoring run is what turns them into a number.

a blank is honest. a zero would be a lie

Podcasts get the same two numbers as everybody else, worked out the same published way. That has not been run yet, so both read . We are never going to rank these shows on downloads, because nobody publishes a download figure we could check.
