    Once Around the Block is a video series in which I walk around the block with people an film the conversation. It's about creating casual, real, and authentic content, showing our human side. This episode is the first in the documenting of my process. It was totally off the cuff and inspired by a podcast episode by garyveeandjamesistarted Gary Vaynerchuk and James Altucher to just get your podcast started! I've been thinking about documenting the growth of @onceatb (also partly inspired by the show "Startup", a podcast by gimlet media) because I think it could be another way of providing value. I'll outline my inspiration for the series, where it is and where I see it going, and discuss the concept of providing value as a creative, rather than imposing it. Please leave your comments and lets start a conversation. BTW, in true Once Around the Block fashion, I have not touched/edited this content. Lets just get it started!

Today's episode is particularly interesting because I met Michael some 30 seconds before we started filming! I chose the Monroe Arts Walk as a general destination and had no idea who I would walk around the block with. It was a super chill walk. Nice meeting you Michael, good luck, and thanks for taking part! Please like and share to help grow this thing!
