Join us as we explore how shared sporting experiences – from cheering on the sidelines to teaching fundamental skills – shape our relationships with our children and create lasting memories.But this conversation goes beyond the playing field. We delve into the concept of legacy, examining the imprints we hope to leave as both artists and fathers. What values, passions, and lessons are we consciously and unconsciously passing down to the next generation? How do our creative pursuits influence our parenting styles, and vice versa?Prepare for an intimate and reflective discussion as we share our own experiences, vulnerabilities, and aspirations for the legacies we are building, both on the canvas and within our families.Tune in for a heartfelt conversation about the intertwined worlds of sports, creativity, and the enduring legacy of fatherhood.X: @1lovepodcastInstagram: @1lovepodcast

We're back! Dust off your headphones and settle in, because the team is finally reunited, and we've got a lot to unpack.

We're diving headfirst into the algorithmic abyss, dissecting the ways these invisible forces shape our online lives, from curated feeds to the ever-present echo chamber. Prepare for a candid discussion about the insidious nature of FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) and how it intertwines with our digital dependency.And of course, no reunion would be complete without a healthy dose of criticism. We're tackling tough questions about feedback, the art of constructive critique, and navigating the sometimes-harsh realities of putting your work out into the world.Join us for a raw and honest conversation about navigating the complexities of modern life, the digital age, and the challenges of staying connected in a world that's constantly changing.Be sure to subscribe, rate, and review on your favorite podcast platform.
