I'm turning 30 and said "What the hell? I'll start a podcast.". www.imthebanddad.com

This is a pilot episode for a Q&A style podcast I'm creating where I take audience submitted questions about the crossection of art and entrepreneurship and give my ideas about how you can leverage the tools of the modern media and marketing ecosystem to create sustaining businesses around your art. If you'd like to submit a question to be answered on the podcast, just go to www.imthebanddad.com.
