Create / Consume : The Search for the Ultimate Creative Process

Join me for the LAST EPISODE OF SEASON 1 and some exciting new directions ahead! But this week I have Amy Leverton, who is a Trend Researcher/Denim Expert who consults with some of the worlds top fashion brands. We talk about how she stays ahead of the curve, and ahead of the elite design teams in fashion. We also talk about cab drivers and costco dads, and what it takes these days to publish a damned book.

The talented and mysterious street artist Vexta and I sit down for a chat while I'm visiting in Tulum Mexico. We talk the dangers of Ego, our individual preferences of possessing either gills or wings, and what it was like to work with Banksy and how that helped direct the course of her creative life. You can find her work here! https://www.vexta.com.au/

Malichi Davis is a mysterious renaissance man, a cult leader, and the answer to the direct question “Who’s the most interesting man you’ve met?”. I went into meeting Malichi with high expectations and was not let down. We talk about knowing your role in the community, where the next American Utopia will be, and how to have your most authentic voice and not be so damn predictable.

I quit my job. Niko convinces me that launching ugly isn't a bad thing. We also talk about why I'm not starting a new company right now. And what that has to do with the dangers of ignoring the Rich Daddy reality of the start up world. Hot take. Fight me.

The long awaited part 2 of the episode with Garrett Gee and his incredible friends while shark diving in the bahamas. We talk about the power of leaping without looking, the power of giving away your millions to your ex-wife, the inspirational power of being unqualified, and how to start over.

You really don't want to miss this. While on a boat out in the Gulf of Mexico, with some of the most interesting people ever, the conversation continually turned inspirational, challenging and thrilling. Luckily I had the presence of mind to hit the record button a couple times so I can share some of the good stuff with all you idiots. The sound is garbage, but if you're at all interested what a bunch of millionaires and professional adventurers have to say about life, it's worth a listen.

Mr. Bailey and I talk about the importance of curation, being an authentic asshole, capturing all our genius ideas, and always staying a beginner. We also talk about brainscans for some reason.

Charles, who is as sharp as he is handsome, and I sit down to talk about using robots to make art,  Yeezus Merch, what the tech world needs to learn from the fashion world, about how we ended up as creatives with engineering leans, and how picking the right creative processes can save us from ourselves.
