WP Legends is a WordPress interview series produced by Seahawk Media and hosted by Gautam Khorana. Every episode is a recorded conversation with a founder, agency owner, or product builder from the WordPress ecosystem, covering how hosting, plugins, and agencies are really run, not how the marketing pages describe them.
The series has published more than 150 episodes, releases roughly weekly, and runs 30 to 60 minutes per conversation. Guests have included leaders from hosting companies, page-builder teams, and plugin businesses listed across the HostList directory.
A pricing table tells you what a host charges. It does not tell you who answers when a migration breaks at 2am, how a company decides what to build next, or whether support is staffed by engineers or scripts. A long-form interview surfaces those signals.
That is why HostList pairs interview footage with its data. When a hosting founder appears on WP Legends, we link the episode to their listing, so the founder’s own words sit beside the host’s HostScore, plans, and reliability history. You hear the roadmap and the reasoning, then check it against the numbers in the rankings.
Live panel discussions where WordPress leaders debate the topics that matter: security, performance, business, and the future of the open web.
In-depth interviews with plugin company founders, theme creators, and hosting pioneers. The stories behind the tools you use every day.
Fresh perspectives on WordPress trends, from AI integration to enterprise adoption and community governance.
Watch on YouTube, listen on every major podcast platform, or follow the conversation live on LinkedIn and X.
WP Legends bridges developers, marketers, UX designers, support teams, and CEOs: the whole WordPress ecosystem in one place.
Named Best WordPress Podcast at the Monster Award 2025, recognised for quality, reach, and impact on the community.
Gautam is the co-founder and COO of Seahawk Media and the host of WP Legends. He has spent more than a decade building on WordPress, from agency work to directory platforms at scale, and started the series to record the unscripted version of how the open web gets built.

WP Legends is a WordPress interview series produced by Seahawk Media and hosted by Gautam Khorana. Each episode is a long-form conversation with a founder, agency owner, or product builder from the WordPress ecosystem, covering how hosting, plugins, and agencies are actually run.
The series is hosted by Gautam Khorana, co-founder and COO of Seahawk Media, who has built on WordPress for over a decade across agency work and large-scale directory platforms.
Episodes are published on YouTube at @seahawkmedia and at wplegends.tv, and the audio is available on the major podcast platforms.
Guests are the founders and operators behind the hosts, plugins, page builders, and agencies the WordPress community relies on. Many of them run companies listed in the HostList directory.
When a guest runs a hosting company listed on HostList, the episode is linked to that host profile, so the founder interview sits beside the host HostScore, plans, and reliability history.
Hear the stories of the people building the open web, then see where their hosts rank.
