When the parents of eight-year-old Elizabeth Struhs stopped giving her the insulin she needed to control her diabetes, they thought God would cure her.And when the little girl slowly died in their home in the Australian city of Toowoomba they and other members of the Saints, a religious sect stood by waiting for her to rise from the dead.The details that emerged at the trial in Queensland of the 14 members of the cult were harrowing. The court heard that the child's father Jason Struhs finally called emergency services 36 hours after his daughter's death, saying “though God would still raise Elizabeth, they could not leave a corpse in the house”.Both Jason and her mother Kerrie Struhs were found guilty of manslaughter. The sect's leader, Brendan Stevens was found guilty of manslaughter for encouraging the father to withhold insulin from his daughter in January 2022.The Saints are a conservative Christian sect made up mostly of three families who believe in speaking in tongues and who reject modern medicine as “witchcraft”.The 14 will be sentenced on February 11th.Andrew Messenger from the Guardian Australia details this tragic case.Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Suzanne Brennan. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Simple questions often prove to be the most difficult to answer. The Duke Basketball Roundup got a simple question from a listener a few days ago -- is this Duke team a poor shooting team from the perimeter. The answer is... complicated. Both Jason and Donald provide evidence that it is probably a better set of shooters than you think, but expecting them to hit 40+ percent from long range may be a pipe dream. The latest episode of the DBR Podcast has other business to get to as well, and this episode begins with a discussion of football and the transfer portal. Duke has landed an elite QB in Darien Mensah and the podcast dudes have a breakdown of what his commitment means for Manny Diaz's second season in Durham. Jason and Donald also dive into the stunning football news from down the road in Chapel Hill -- will Bill Belichick be able to wake the "sleeping giant" that is UNC football?

In this episode, Jed Doherty had the pleasure of chatting with acclaimed singer-songwriter Jason Gray about his debut children's book "Sparrows." Jason shared the heartwarming story behind the book, which follows a young girl named Ellie who is learning to overcome her speech impediment and bullying. Jason explained how the book's themes of faith, compassion, and finding inner strength were inspired by his own life experiences growing up with a speech handicap. He beautifully described how music first helped him connect with God's love, and how he hopes "Sparrows" can provide that same sense of comfort and encouragement to young readers. Jed commented on how the book's relatable protagonist and subtle spiritual elements make it an accessible read for families of all faith backgrounds. Jason emphasized his goal of creating stories that are "fun and accessible" and help foster a love of reading in kids. We then had the chance to speak with up-and-coming children's book author DK Ryland, whose debut picture book "Have You Seen My Acorn?" is generating buzz. DK shared how her background as a professional softball player and wildlife filmmaker in Africa has influenced her "fun and subversive" storytelling style. DK spoke passionately about the importance of exposing kids to a variety of activities and allowing them to explore their interests, rather than pushing them to specialize in one sport or hobby from a young age. Her own multifaceted creative journey is an inspiring example of this philosophy in action. Overall, this episode is a delightful exploration of the power of children's literature to entertain, educate and empower young readers. Both Jason and DK's insights are sure to resonate with parents and book lovers alike.

(This episode flows from Ep 73 Part I: Commemorating the October 7 Massacre – please listen to it first if you have not.) In this second part of our series recapping a year of the Israel-Hamas War, Jason and Sir Vincent Fean (former British Consul General in Jerusalem and former Chairman of the Balfour Project) pivot their discussion to the current state of Palestinian political institutions, the Palestinian question on the international diplomatic stage; international legal rulings against Israel's occupation; Britain's historic role in the Palestine question and its ensuing responsibilities to the Palestinians; the actions of Sir Keir's government to bring about Palestinian statehood; and the longer term implications of the current conflict for the future of the Middle East and the world. Both Jason and Sir Vincent argue that it is impossible to Order the Disorder globally on issues like climate change without tackling the Middle East head on.

Smart Agency Masterclass with Jason Swenk: Podcast for Digital Marketing Agencies
What do you think is holding you back from scaling your agency? Have you received coaching? And if you have, have you implemented their recommended measures? On today's episode we talk about agency owners' accountability and why reaching out for help can be useless unless you understand what you want. Scaling an agency is hardly something you can do independently. You'll need support and community along the way. A lot of the times the most important step to growing is figuring out if you're ready to change. Get ready for some hard truths and expert advice. As Agency Scale Specialist on our team, Darby Copenhaver talks with hundreds of agency owners and finds a common thread when it comes to what's holding them back from scaling their businesses. Seeking help is the first step, of course, but you'll also need the right support and the willingness to make the necessary changes. Many agency owners get as far as knowing to ask for help but then don't follow through, ultimately rendering any investment in coaching useless. Tune in to see why showing up consistently is the most important thing you can to and how accountability and community play a big role in the journey of growing an agency. In this episode, we'll discuss: Are you ready to accept help? Showing up makes all the difference. The agency transformation blueprint.

More than once we've had agency owners contact our team saying they need help and then they can't even clear an afternoon for a free call to talk about what's getting in the way of their growth. If there's something that has really surprised Darby is how many people are just not prepared to get help. First, they need to recognize they want to change and get to a point where the pain of not changing is greater than the pain to change. Agency owners need to be open to receiving support to progress. Not every form of assistance may be suitable for everyone, whether it's from a mentor, a coach, or a community. The real challenge lies in being receptive to help and taking the necessary actions to effect changes in their businesses. In reality, a lot of agency owners feel they want to step up to the next level but don't want to risk what they have. This means that whenever something doesn't go according to plan they'll falter and reject the help. On the contrary, hard periods are when you'll need to invest the most, learn valuable lessons, and surround yourself with the right people rather than isolate yourself. How Showing Up Propels Agency Owners Forward People who actually make it to the top have some things in common: They're curious. They're humble. Their outlook is that they'll either win or learn. The more comfortable you get with your agency the more you'll feel you have to lose by trying something risky with the business. However, remember you can always start again as long as you have something to offer. How many agency owners do you think tanked their businesses because they tried something new? Not nearly as many as you may think. Both Jason and Darby have repeatedly seen that the agency owners who consistently show up, put in the work, and follow through on their commitments are more likely to see positive results. By being consistent in their efforts and showing up for their team members and peers, they can build momentum and make progress toward their goals. The Agency Transformation Blueprint: Clarity, Focus, and Finding Your Tribe Once you commit and are willing to make the necessary changes, you'll need a clear idea of what you want, where you're going, and a community. Too many agency owners seem to be waiting for everything to fall into place magically but this just doesn't happen. Running an agency is definitely more of a marathon than a sprint and you'll have to learn to pace yourself and have a sense of where you're going and what it is that you do really well that'll get you there. If you were getting paid on performance only, who would you do it for? Who is it that you can help the most and deliver the most value to? That's your starting point. Once you do that, it's all about how to get your audience's attention and find the right team to get you there. Setting clear goals and knowing your direction is crucial for success and defining your target audience and focusing on delivering results will help you create a solid foundation for growth and development. This is where having a tribe or community to support you through the journey becomes super important. Whether it's mastermind groups, networking events, or one-on-one interactions, find your tribe and actively engage with them. A community will help keep things in perspective and constantly challenge you to stay accountable to your goals and overall direction. Turning Obstacles into Lessons and Finding Strength in Community There will always be challenges and difficult times in business, but it is important to view these obstacles as opportunities for growth and learning. Agency life has many highs and lows, and understanding can help you develop resilience and adaptability to navigate through tough times. In the agency industry, you're either approaching the storm, in the storm or just got out of the storm. In any case, the storm is always there right around the corner. It doesn't have to be something bad, a storm can be a pressure test and could help you see things you need to see. Being part of a community can also help you realize everyone is growing at a different pace and that while not all years bring big wins, they all bring important lessons that will prepare you for an amazing year ahead. Furthermore, a year represents a very short part of your agency journey and one bad year is not the end as long as you're focusing on building the right foundation for your ultimate goal. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset? Looking to dig deeper into your agency's potential? Check out our Agency Blueprint. Designed for agency owners like you, our Agency Blueprint helps you uncover growth opportunities, tackle obstacles, and craft a customized blueprint for your agency's success.

On this episode of Broker to Broker, host JP Hussey gets a peek at the bright future of the wholesale channel, as he's joined by Jason Kindler & Aaron Bacus, Broker Owners of First Coast Mortgage Funding. As Broker Owners of First Coast Mortgage Funding, Jason and Aaron bring two different approaches, skill sets, and backgrounds to their brokerage that creates a sum of strengths greater than the sum of their parts; Jason has strengths in processes and working with builders, and Aaron with relationship building to creating new leads. Together, First Coast Mortgage Funding has grown into an incredibly successful and efficient machine. Both Jason and Aaron have incredible advice for retail LOs and wholesale brokers new to the wholesale channel. The levels of freedom they have as brokers in wholesale has granted them the opportunity to forge their own systems & processes to a point that their speed competes with the fastest retail lenders, while still remaining able to maintain the service, consideration, and human element that brokers are known for. They break down and make the case for why the wholesale channel is the way of the future for industry workers and borrowers alike. Aaron breaks it down simply: “At this point, I'd be concerned for you if you're not a broker. While loan officers are still going to be needed in the future, there's no question that their margins will shrink. There's no doubt that it's happening now for technology shoppers. And if you don't have control, at least to see what's going on and have some sort of participation in that, I would be concerned. What are retail LOs going to do when rates are raised? They have no control over that. And that's why we're very optimistic for the broker from the entrepreneurial local business standpoint. We're serving the local people. That's our value add. We're accountable to that realtor and that borrower that lives down the street to make sure that their loan closes.” Key Points: 2:26 Starting Out in a Lead-Based Business 13:54 Misconceptions about Wholesale, and The Freedom of Choice 22:37 Collaboration in Wholesale vs. Competition in Retail 30:42 Wholesale Control and Organic Process Building 40:39 Advice to Retail & New LOs & the Bright Future of Wholesale This episode is sponsored by Windsor Mortgage
This week on Transmissions, we're settling in for a tremendous conversation with Jason Stern and Don Fleming of the Lou Reed Archive. A decade on from his passing in 2013, Lou Reed's work remains as vital as ever, thanks in no small part to the efforts of people like Jason and Don. Working together with Laurie Anderson, they've helped bring a number of projects into existence, including the New York Public Library's Caught Between the Twisted Stars exhibit, which runs through March 4th, and last year's revelatory demos collection Words and Music: May 1965. Next month sees the release of a new book, The Art Of The Straight Line, which assembles Reed's unpublished musings on tai chi, music, and meditation. Both Jason and Don are, on their own, fascinating music lifers. In addition to his own bands, like Velvet Monkeys and Gumball, Fleming has worked with Sonic Youth, Teenage Fanclub, Nancy Sinatra, and many more. His work as an archivist is equally impressive, and it's found him working with the Alan Lomax, Hunter S. Thompson, and Ken Kesey estates. Meanwhile, Jason worked directly with Laurie Anderson and Lou in his final years. This talk covers fascinating aspects of Lou Reed's life, offers insight into his art, addresses controversies, and much more. Transmissions is produced in partnership with Talkhouse Podcast Network.

Both Jason and Sam did their homework for this episode, looking back at Duke history to see whether this year's team is using the bench differently than Coach K did over the years. While it may feel like there is a bit more depth than usual, you will probably be surprised at the degree to which Scheyer differs from K. Learn more about your ad choices.

Jeremy Moser is the co-founder and CEO of uSERP, an SEO agency that earns SaaS companies high authority backlinks on the most coveted websites. When it came time for his agency to outgrow the referrals model, he turned to several strategies that helped his agency exponential growth. He now reflects on the lessons he learned about agency growth, the process to building his lead generation system, and why he picked Twitter as the platform to build a network and brand. In this interview, we'll discuss: Going beyond cold emails to get past the $80K mark. Why Twitter is a great place to form connections. Podcasts as useful tools for SEO.

During his time there, he got to see a massive transformation after the founders split and went on to create separate agencies. Jeremy ended up staying with one of them and spent five years witnessing its growth, from being the only employee to being one on a team of 30. During this time, he got to see the highs and lows of building an agency, seeing it go from a project to an actual company with organization and structure. Helping build the agency and witnessing the trials and triumphs, and what worked and didn't is what helped him decide to eventually start his own venture. Figuring Out How to Build a Lead Gen System Up until about the $80K mark, Jeremy's agency grew pretty much on referrals. He was tapping into his existing network, approaching past clients from his previous job by offering new services. It proved to be a good growth path for the early stages of the agency. However, they realized it just wasn't sustainable if they really wanted to continue growing and reach multi-million in revenue per year. It was time to be intentional about lead generation by being active and aggressive about it. However, referrals aren't scalable. So a lot of agency owners at this crossroads decide to hire a lead gen agency. Both Jason and Jeremy disagree with this strategy. Jeremy says hiring a lead gen agency to do cold emails for your agency won't work without brand awareness first. It's very unlikely in the early stages of your agency you'll find high-profile clients simply by sending cold emails. As a result, he put his efforts into the long game with social media and organic content. For Jeremy, this worked better than the alternative of hiring a lead gen agency. It was a good way to build connections with founders and marketers at different companies, and it was one of the major drivers for them to scale past $80K per month. Using Twitter to Make Real Connections When he turned his attention to building a following on social media, Jeremy focused especially on Twitter. When he joined he didn't really see much potential there to actually connect with people. However, at some point, there was a big shift in the algorithm and the platform's users. He started posting what he was doing for his agency; sharing their wins and losses helped him build connections with other agencies and brands. He realized many of his Twitter followers were working at big companies. He decided this was the right platform to reach them on a personal level rather than someplace more transactional like LinkedIn. While LinkedIn is always more sales-driven, with people trying to build connections on that basis Twitter was a more organic way of meeting people. 2 Strategies That Helped Build the Agency's Brand Other strategies that helped boost his agency's growth included creating content for third parties and an acquisition that led to their foot-in-the-door offer. Guest blogging: Try being an expert contributor for industry news outlets. Jeremy is a writer for Search Engine Journal, a top SEO publication. In the long run, this was a good lead gen strategy in the long run. They write detailed articles about SEO and link building that their potential clients could be interested in. This in turn gets them a lot of articles linking back to them or referencing them and ensures people searching for this information find uSERP. Acquisition and the FITD: Jeremy's agency acquired a SaaS company which they had a relationship with their as a customer. A lot of SaaS companies – their ideal clients – used it as well. It provided a way for them as an agency to start building a relationship with potential customers. It created a good entry-level foot-in-the-door offer where a SaaS company could pay $200/month for this software. They actually ended up closing a good amount of deals from this acquisition. The Positive Effect Podcasts Have SEO for Your Agency Podcasts are a very useful tool when it comes to SEO for a number of reasons: When you are a guest on a podcast, you almost always get a link back from doing it. Those natural links are always important. Whether they publish it on their site, social media, or their blog it has residual effect on your SEO. You also get the opportunity to repurpose content. If you're writing about a subject you also recorded a podcast on, you can transcribe the recording and optimize it. Adding a podcast or video to existing content increases the value of that piece as a whole. By adding audio or video you can appeal to different types of learners because not everyone is going to want to read your super-long blog post. Lessons in Agency Growth One big lesson for Jeremy in his growth journey was investing in good talent. It may be hard to hire great talent right from the start because you just don't have sustainable cash flow. However, once you get to a certain point with your cash flow and have a good client roster it is definitely something you should invest in. Jeremy finds any time he feels uncomfortable with the amount he was paying for a seasoned senior hire it ended up being the best decision. It frees up a lot of time he redirects to focus on other aspects of the business. When he does that, revenue climbs aggressively. Now, he makes it a point to always think about things he is doing that somebody else could take over. Want the Support of Amazing Digital Agency Owners?

Want to work less and make more? With a forty-hour workweek, it seems hard to imagine a reality where you can do less but still get the same results. How can you fit an entire week's worth of work into only one day's working hours? Jason Wojo and Peter Kolat, hosts of The Lifeonaire Show, argue that it's easier than you think to cut out much of your workday, enjoy your life more, and reach financial freedom faster.Both Jason and Peter grew up in troubling financial environments—raised in households where fighting about money was the norm. As Jason and Peter grew up, took on careers, got married, and had families, they saw themselves falling into the same traps as their parents—taking on debt, overspending, and working far more than they had liked. After hitting “rock bottom”, they decided to take a step in the right direction and change their financial future.With the help of a financially-free “vision”, Jason and Peter now live lives almost unrecognizable to their pasts. They now help others find their passions, chase their dreams, and achieve financial freedom with ease. So, if you're tired of the grind, the stress, and the financial anxiety, you may want to consider becoming a “Lifeonaire” like Jason and Peter.Links from the ShowWhy healthy finances are key to keeping a family (and marriage) in-tact Hitting “rock bottom” and climbing out of credit card and consumer debt Building a rental property portfolio debt-free and how you can do it tooThe four core tenants of money philosophy and why everything starts with your “vision”The 80/20 Rule and why working less can help you make more moneyCalculating the cost of financial freedom and why it's probably less than you thinkAnd So Much More!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets Money Facebook GroupBiggerPockets ForumsFinance Review Guest OnboardingMindy's TwitterScott's InstagramApply to Be a Guest on The Money ShowPodcast Talent Search!Subscribe to The “On The Market” YouTube ChannelListen to The “On The Market” Podcast: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, BiggerPocketsHow to Get Financial Freedom So You Can Do What You're Meant to DoLifeonaire WebsiteSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On today's episode, Jason and Producer Rob G get the party started with a deep dive into the Brooklyn Nets' play-in tournament victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Earlier in the week, Jason listed the Nets as one of only 5 teams he thinks can win the NBA championship this season… and he's already on the verge of backing off that claim. Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving were fantastic, and the Nets still needed to hold on for dear life to beat an inferior opponent. Brooklyn won't be able to get away with that kind of play against better teams. Both Jason and Rob G have already said they've got the Jayson Tatum-led Boston Celtics winning Game 1 of the series, and at least one of the guys has gone on record in picking Boston to win the series outright. Later, Jason and Rob G share their thoughts on the Minnesota Timberwolves' thrilling come-from-behind victory over the Los Angeles Clippers. With Karl-Anthony Towns struggling, the T'Wolves leaned on young stud Anthony Edwards and #FormerLaker D'Angelo Russell to carry the load. Now while Minnesota versus Memphis in round 1 is unlikely to draw huge television ratings, with guys like Patrick Beverley and Ja Morant going at it, it certainly has the potential to be the most entertaining series of them all. Finally, Jason closes the show with a very special NBA Play-In Tournament (Charlotte Hornets vs. Atlanta Hawks / New Orleans Pelicans vs. San Antonio Spurs) edition of the Best Bet.

Smart Agency Masterclass with Jason Swenk: Podcast for Digital Marketing Agencies
Do you want to start charging for strategy instead of just execution? A lot of agencies out there are getting paid for execution and giving away strategy for free. They end up being viewed as a commodity instead of for the value and expertise they bring their clients. It's mostly about learning how to cross that bridge. Our guest today specializes in helping business owners make this transition. It involves a lot of trial and error, trusting your experience, and learning to listen to clients. Stephen Houraghan is a brand strategist who helps businesses amplify their brands and teaches designers and brand builders how to specialize in this area with his Brand Master Academy. He started his career working in finance and stockbroking and eventually left that world to start his own agency offering web design services. With the rise of freelancer platforms, Stephen saw clients wanted more value, so he tapped into strategy, which in time opened the doors to a different type of business and relationship with clients. In this episode, we'll discuss: Stop giving away strategy for free. The thought and process of selling strategy. Listen to clients to create authority.

Subscribe Apple | Spotify | iHeart Radio | Stitcher | Radio FM Figuring Out How to Charge for Strategy When Stephen started working as a freelance designer he tapped into his professional network and was getting lots of referrals. He was doing what he loved and money wasn't a worry. However, this started to change with the rise of freelancer platforms. Clients were pushing back on his prices and he realized he needed to offer more value to retain customers. He started his agency and thought about how to compete with freelancers. Being more competitive would require solving the right problems for clients and offering more. He turned to branding, something he really loved to do. Eventually, that led to piecing together the puzzle of brand strategy. Brand strategy is the key to making competitors irrelevant. Offering all the pieces of building a brand to clients put Stephen on another level, no longer competing with freelancers who just offered a logo or website. It took years of developing and improving his process but now clients do not compare based on logos and brochures but rather based on long-term success based on the strategy behind these items. How to Test Your System for Selling Strategy No matter how you fell into the agency world, there comes a point where you have to turn what you've learned into something which proves value to your clients. The bridge you need to cross to get to that point is experience. You need to realize you already have the building blocks to shift to this model. No one jumps into a creative project and just drags pixels around. It takes thought and a process. This process may be more or less detailed and, for some, it involves research and building a brand persona. Begin by documenting it and you will slowly develop it from there. Usually, freelancers and new agencies will not charge for the labor involved in the process. Taking this step will really make a difference in your growth because there's no ceiling to what you can charge when you sell strategy. For his part, Stephen started by splitting up his services. He increased his design prices but made sure to sell them as the product of a comprehensive process. At first, he included the strategy for free as he slowly transitioned to taking his clients through his system. With time, his system became much more comprehensive as he tested and refined it. A big part of doing this was pushing the impostor syndrome away. Of course, you have to be very careful to not just slap a title on yourself as you start to sell brand strategy but trust your experience. It is about building the system, but it is also about building confidence in yourself, your system, and knowing that clients need that system whether they know it or not. What are the Elements of Brand Strategy? Knowing the concept of brand strategy is a start but you need to understand its elements and how to tie them together to create more value for clients. Stephen identified a lot of common elements, including buyer persona, competitive analysis, positioning, storytelling, brand personality, brand mission, etc. The challenge was to figure out if every single one of these elements applies to every business, in what order, and how he could go about developing them. Asking these questions was the start of putting together a system to build a brand. It all starts with the customer, naturally, but it goes beyond the persona. You have to dig into their journey and understand each of the challenges in that journey. From there, it's about looking out into the market and understanding all the players in that market. Look for gaps where you can go in and offer something different, new, and fresh. Your messaging, what you say, and the buttons you push within your message is your most influential tool as a brand. That is the value of brand strategy. All these elements in the right order will help you resonate with your audience in a way that a logo or a website alone can't replicate and will give you the ability to sell your thinking instead of giving it away for free. Learn To Listen to Clients and Ask The Right Questions The trial and error to figure out your process will most likely result in some mistakes. For Stephen, the most obvious mistake was taking the position of “I'm the brand strategist and you don't know what you're talking about”. He would tell clients that they didn't need a logo and try to push them in a certain direction. “9 times out of 10 that conversation did not end well,” he acknowledges. Both Jason and Stephen agree that selling on strategy is about asking the right questions in order to help them determine the direction they need to follow. It doesn't work unless you ask the right questions, listen, and walk them through the plan. With this framework, they never lost a deal over price. Remember that no one likes to be told that they're wrong. You can't just tell clients they need something they don't think they need because they most likely won't listen. It's about showing and demonstrating the need to create the desire. Stephen learned about negotiations and started to structure conversations with clients. He asked more questions and really tried to understand what they wanted and get them excited about the brand they wanted to build. The Right and Wrong Way to Create Authority Many people think building authority takes a lot of talking and flexing your muscles. Actually, questions are a really powerful tool when it comes to building authority. The more you are talking the less your clients are talking. It is so important that clients feel you are interested in their business and helping them build their brand. With the right questions, you can get clients to consider that there's maybe another path they haven't considered. You can get them to dream about different possibilities that will help build a relationship and build authority. Remember, you always want to position yourself as a trusted advisor, and listening to your clients is a great way to do that as well as separate your agency from the competition.

Both Jason and Debbie have quite different timelines from each other and have been able to see a vast variety of timelines with their own children and with the young adults at TechieForLife.

Jason talks to Nik Sharma about how community always overpowers bells and whistles, what works in building a community for (and with) your customers, and his thoughts on how NFT's will impact ecommerce. For the launch episode of Building Blocks with Jason Wong, Jason sits down with an old friend and DTC expert, Nik Sharma from Sharma Brands. Both Jason and Nik agree that the hardest part of any brand's story is taking it from 0 to 1, and Nik recently had a big success doing just in one of the most saturated markets in existence right now - skincare. Nik and Jason jump into how even with a competitive space brands can succeed on the strength of their product's legitimacy and the brand's community. From community, we jump into exactly what it is that makes some brands lifestyle brands (and others not) and how these kinds of lifestyles are exactly the reason why ecommerce entrepreneurs shouldn't tune out of the conversation about NFT's. They're not just tokens but the most exciting way to give customers exclusive access that Nik and Jason can imagine for the future.

Jason Brooks is an award-winning fashion and lifestyle illustrator with a vast enthralling body of work across a range of industry sectors. From major advertising campaigns to gallery exhibitions, live events, magazine illustrations for the likes of The Face, Vogue, Elle, and the world of interiors to name but a few. Jason also illustrated glossy club flyers for cult London club Pushca and a long-running series of cd covers for Hedkandi selling in excess of 6 million albums. Starting his artistic journey at a young age when he would draw and paint avidly, and being particularly inspired by a trip to Florence at the age of 6 by his early teens he received his first freelance commission.It is no surprise to me that Both Jason's parents are artists and encouraged his growing obsessions with drawing and making pictures. I can't wait to explore more of that story later in the show. Jason went on to study and achieved degrees from both St Martins College and The Royal College of Art in London and drew inspiration for his work not only from his time living in London but also traveling wildly around the world filling sketchbooks as he went from Mexico and Central America to all over Europe and beyond. Jason is particularly noted as being among the first fashion illustrators to embrace and pioneer computer technology in his field. The glamorous, chic, and aspirational world he presents in his work is a combination of life experience and imagination and has provided a means of communication for a wide range of luxury and lifestyle brands. With what I like to call the digital art resonance happening before our eyes in the world of web 3.0 cryptocurrency and Non Fungible Tokens (NFTS) we are only days away from Jason's very first NFT collection THE RED COLLECTION which I personally can't wait to see be released!Subjects covered in this episode:
