Looking at an advertisement in 1986 teaches a valuable lifelong lesson. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/wakeupcall/support

Are you creating content? Or Are you creating culture? Today we look back at the first issue of Thrasher Magazine that I can remember ever seeing. This was the first time in my life when I can remember loving advertising as much as the content that it was there to support. This would create a lifelong goal of being a storyteller in advertising, content creation and media. Through my years as a musician, a designer in the music industry and now as a podcaster the story of a brand is significant to me as I try to tell my own as well as the stories of all of my guests. Every day when I hit record I know that I'm selling you something, my story, my idea, my guest, my sponsor. I hope that I do it in a way where you see real value and that hopefully, that value is our bond! I'm trying to create a community that values the same culture and yes being a consumer is part of it, but it doesn't have to define it. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/wakeupcall/support

Season 02 of Wake Up Call starts with an explanation of why I'm looking back at 1986 - 2000 in my life. A time spent in the Hardcore / Punk / Emo music scene but more importantly a time when I learned my greatest life lessons. A 14 year run of doing things the wrong way, to determine how to them the right. Welcome to the "Lost Years" of my youth.
