Last week I talked about culture hacking and how to shift your organization toward a more UX-friendly way of working. This week, I want to get practical about one of the tools that makes culture change possible: internal marketing.I have some bad news. If you are a design leader, part of your job involves becoming a bit of a marketer. Not the fancy kind with huge budgets and billboards, but the scrappy, guerrilla kind that gets attention without spending a fortune.Why? Because if you want to change how people in your organization perceive users and value your team, you need to get their attention first. Traditional marketing does not work when you are trying to reach your colleagues, so you need unconventional, low-cost strategies instead.Build Your UX Ambassador NetworkBefore I get into specific tactics, you need to understand the real goal here: creating UX ambassadors throughout your organization.You cannot be everywhere at once. You cannot attend every meeting, influence every decision, or educate every colleague personally. But you can identify and equip people across different departments who care about users and give them the tools to spread UX thinking in their teams.This is how culture change actually happens. Not through presentations from the UX team, but through conversations between colleagues who trust each other.So how do you find and develop these ambassadors? You start by identifying who is already interested, then you equip them to advocate for UX in their corner of the organization.Start with a NewsletterOne of the most obvious tools is a newsletter. When I start working with an organization, one of the first things I do is send an email to as many people as possible across the company.In that email, I ask people to opt in if they are interested in UX, what the UX team is doing, or how UX can make a difference. Then I build a landing page that outlines the benefits of subscribing and what the newsletter will cover, treating it like a proper marketing site.Why? Because the people who choose to subscribe have just identified themselves as potential UX ambassadors. These are the people most likely to care about users and most willing to champion UX thinking in their teams. Start with them.Once people opt into the newsletter, you need to send it regularly. I normally set a schedule of between once a month and every couple of weeks. Consistency keeps UX front of mind and gives your ambassadors fresh material to share with their colleagues.The content matters significantly. Too often, newsletters become self-promotion for the UX team, and nobody wants that. Instead, your newsletter should equip people to become UX advocates in their own teams.Share practical tips they can pass on to colleagues. Provide explanations of UX principles that are easy to remember and repeat. Include success stories and case studies they can reference in meetings. Give them language and examples that make it easier to champion user-centered thinking when you are not in the room.Think of your newsletter as a toolkit for your ambassadors, not a marketing brochure for your team.Create a Discussion ForumAnother powerful tool is a discussion forum, whether in Slack or Teams. When people sign up for the newsletter, invite them to join the forum as well.This is where your ambassadors can get support when they run into resistance. Someone in marketing tries to advocate for simpler language and gets shut down. Someone in sales pushes back on a feature request that ignores user needs and faces pushback. These moments are where UX culture is either built or broken.The forum gives your ambassadors a place to share challenges, ask for advice, and get encouragement from others who are fighting similar battles. It also helps them learn from each other's successes and failures.A forum keeps the conversation going between newsletters and turns isolated UX advocates into a connected network supporting each other across the organization.Use PR Stunts to Get AttentionTo move up the priority ladder within your organization, PR stunts can be very effective. These do not need to be expensive, just memorable.For example, I once replaced corporate wall art with user personas and design principles. We did get into trouble for that one, but it got people talking. Other approaches include:Challenging executives to complete usability testsCreating screen savers with UX stats and user quotesHaving team members dress up to make a point about organizational cultureThe goal is to create moments that people remember and talk about.Run an Internal ConferenceRunning an internal conference is another way to get attention and build support. You can provide lunch, secure sponsorship from UX platforms for expo stalls, invite guest speakers, bring in end users, run breakout groups, and demonstrate user testing.Having executives speak at these events is particularly effective because it forces them to think about user experience and publicly align themselves with UX initiatives.Share Video ClipsCirculating video clips of user testing sessions can create real buzz. Both successes and horror stories work well. Seeing real users struggle with your products is far more powerful than any report you could write.Keep the clips short and focused on specific moments that illustrate a point clearly.Use Physical RemindersPhysical items can keep user experience front of mind in a way that digital content cannot. I have seen notebooks with customer quotes, persona mugs, and coasters with UX tips work well.These items serve as constant reminders that users exist and matter, even when people are not actively thinking about UX.You really need to find your inner marketer when it comes to building the profile of user experience within the company. Some of these suggestions might feel embarrassing or inappropriate for your organization, but you need to push the boundaries of what you think you can get away with.If you always do what is safe and what has been done before, you will never see change. But if you get fired, do not blame me!Next week, I will talk about one of the most powerful ways to build support for UX: engaging stakeholders directly in UX activities. When executives and colleagues see user research and testing firsthand, everything changes.

On this week's episode of the CHASING CLARITY HEALTH & FITNESS PODCAST, I'm joined by Dr. Mikki Williden to unpack one of the most overlooked but most important phases of any transformation, the maintenance phase.Losing fat can be challenging but keeping it off is the true test. Research shows that the majority of people who lose weight eventually regain it but that doesn't have to be the case. In this conversation, Mikki and I break down the physiological, psychological, and behavioral factors that make long-term maintenance so difficult and what you can do to overcome them.HERE'S WHAT WE COVER:WHY FAT LOSS MAINTENANCE IS SO CHALLENGING & HOW TO APPROACH ITDEFINING WEIGHT MAINTENANCEMISTAKES PEOPLE MAKE WHEN THINKING ABOUT WEIGHT MAINTENANCEWHY YOU SHOULD SHIFT YOUR FOCUS TO BODY COMPOSITION MAINTENANCE OVER SCALE WEIGHT MAINTENANCEWHY DO MOST PEOPLE STRUGGLE TO MAINTAIN THEIR RESULTS?WHY IS IT HARDER TO KEEP FAT OFF THAN TO LOSE IT?ARE THE STRATEGIES FOR LOSING FAT DIFFERENT FROM MAINTAINING FAT LOSS?MINDSET SHIFTS FOR SUCCEEDING IN MAINTENANCETHE GAP IN THE FITNESS INDUSTRY – WHY MOST PROGRAMS FAIL TO TEACH MAINTENANCEREFRAMING MAINTENANCE AS THE PHASE THAT MAKES YOUR RESULTS LASTIf you've ever reached your fat loss goal only to find yourself struggling to maintain it, this episode will help you understand why and give you the clarity, structure, and mindset needed to make your results last for life.WHERE TO CONNECT WITH ME:Follow Brandon on IG: https://www.instagram.com/brandondacruz_/For Info on Brandon's Coaching Services: https://form.jotform.com/bdacruzfitness/coachinginquiryEmail: Bdacruzfitness@gmail.comBrandon's Website: https://www.brandondacruzfit.com

Abraham Hamra knows the historic plight of the Jewish diaspora better than most. At six years old he was separated from much of his family, unsure if he'd ever see his grandparents again.  He was among the last Jews left in Syria, and just a year after announcing Jews could leave Syria for the US, the Assad regime reversed course, and said the remaining Jews were stuck. Abraham and his family were trapped. Eventually, the policy was reversed and Abraham was able to reconnect with his family in the US, and eventually with the rest of his extended family living in Israel. Now, alongside a successful career as a lawyer, Abraham advocates for Israel on social media and on the streets of New York. He speaks widely about not letting Jews get bullied anymore, and he lives what he preaches. It's time to hear some motivation from one of the strongest — and loudest — Jewish voices in America. Abraham and Jay talk about how, in America, Abraham has grasped and now wields Jewish strength, how he teaches other Jews to do the same. Abraham shares about the support he has received from his professional colleagues, and the shocking lawsuit he has had to file to protect his reputation.

1. A Future in Flames: Worldwide Wildfire Phenomenon and Historical Context. Danielle Clode's book, A Future in Flames, addresses wildfires (or bushfires in Australia) as a worldwide phenomenon challenging civilization in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The discussion emphasizes that bushfires are not solely a product of civilization but were present historically. Early European explorers, such as Captain Cook in 1770, frequently reported seeing fires along the Australian coast, often interpreting them as indicators of people ashore. Once explorers went ashore, some observed really intense fires that were clearly out of control. The sources highlight the long history of fire use by humans, focusing on Indigenous Australians. Prior to European settlement, Indigenous people used fire in various ways, including hunting, clearing movement passages, signaling, defense, and crucially, land management. They used fire selectively to stimulate new growth and promote grass for grazing prey. This land management system, perfected over more than 60,000 years, is known as "fire stick farming" and is integral to the Australian ecology. In contrast, early European settlers failed to apply these lessons well, often using fire indiscriminately merely to clear forests. While the land clearance supported the economy by regenerating grass for sheep, the uncontrolled fires became a serious problem relatively early in the colony's history.

Will there be murderers in Celestial Kingdom? An Institute Teacher's answer challenged Sandra Tanner's faith back in the 1950s. We'll talk about this unusual case and how it contributed to Sandra joining Pauline Hancock's Basement Church (known as Church of Christ) in Independence Missouri. Check out our conversation... https://youtu.be/4c6tu0SYs6 Don't miss our other conversations with Sandra: https://gospeltangents.com/people/sandra-tanner Copyright © 2025 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved From Brigham Young Defender to Critic: Influences That Sparked Tanners' Journey The history of early Mormonism and its subsequent splinter groups is complex, but few journeys into critical thinking are as personal and profound as that of Sandra Tanner. Raised defending the faith, her path to becoming a leading critic of Mormonism was catalyzed by several unexpected influences, including the work of a pioneering female Restoration leader and the startling discovery of historical documents. The Vision of Pauline Hancock Sandra Tanner's husband, Jerald Tanner, was deeply influenced by an obscure Restoration group led by Pauline Hancock. Pauline was a head of her group, called the Church of Christ (Bible Book of Mormon), serving as its minister and preacher. Though she never claimed to be a prophet, she was considered a "deliverer of the message". Crucially, Pauline did claim to have a vision of Christ before the group started meeting as a church. This vision occurred during a transition when she was trying to sort out what she believed, focusing on the "original kernel of Mormonism". She told Christ she couldn't fulfill the calling to tell the world what she had learned because she was a woman, but Christ responded, "I was a man, and they didn't listen to me. So, it doesn't matter that you're a woman. You are called to go out and tell what you've learned". Pauline's group focused on studying the Book of Mormon outside of various splinter groups. Their theology centered on the "oneness idea of God," a modalistic model (though they would not have used the term "modalism"). They aimed for a rejuvenation of the David Whitmer flavor of Mormonism, seeking to go "back to original Mormonism" using just the Bible and Book of Mormon. Jerald Tanner's Cottage Meetings Jerald Tanner became converted to Pauline's message after two visits to Missouri. At age 20 (around 1957 or 1958), Jerald returned to Salt Lake and began holding little cottage meetings at his parents' house. He would play reel-to-reel tapes of Pauline's different sermons or teachings. The purpose of these meetings was to discuss early Mormonism and explain where the Church "went off the track". Sandra's grandmother, a relative by marriage to the Brigham Young family, received an invitation to one of these meetings via a postcard. Sandra, visiting from Southern California during spring break, drove her grandmother to the meeting. Grandmother claimed it was "sort of like a Mormon fireside". Jerald, whom she found "nice looking" and "cute," impressed her with his studies on Mormonism's problems and the group's focus on returning to the Book of Mormon. From Defense to Doubt Sandra's journey of doubt had already been seeded by others. First, her mother and aunt began studying Mormon history in the 1950s after reading Fawn Brodie's book, No Man Knows My History. They were pouring over "apostate literature" and photocopies. Sandra, then in high school, was busy defending the faith, while her mother and aunt were "going into apostasy". Sandra noted that her mother became known as being "too inquisitive" in Sunday school classes, often disrupting the class with questions. Sandra's mother and aunt found James Wardle's barbershop, possibly through Sam Weller's bookstore (which stocked anti-Mormon and polygamy literature). James Wardle was the link that put Sandra's mother in contact with Pauline Hancock's group. Second,

Nothing captivates the human imagination like the vast unknowns of space. Ancient petroglyphs present renderings of the heavens, proof that we have been gazing up at the stars with wonder for thousands of years. Since then, mankind has systematically expanded our cosmic possibilities. What were once flights of fancy and dreams of science fiction writers have become nearly routine – a continuous human presence orbiting the Earth, probes flying beyond our solar system, and men walking on the moon. NASA and the Russian space program make traveling to the stars look easy, but it has been far from that. Space travel is a sometimes heroic, sometimes humorous, and always dangerous journey fraught with perils around every corner that most of us have never heard of or have long since forgotten.Space Oddities: The Mysterious Anomalies Challenging Our Understanding of the Universe (Doubleday, 2024) brings these unknown, offbeat, and obscure stories of space to life. From the showmanship and bravado of the earliest known space fatality, German Max Valier, to the first ever indictment under the Espionage Act on an Army officer who leaked secrets concerning the development of early U.S. rockets; and the story of a single loose bolt that defeated the Soviet Union's attempt to beat America to the moon.Author Joe Cuhaj also sheds light on the human aspects of space travel that have remained industry secrets – until now: how the tradition of using a musical playlist to wake astronauts up began, fascinating tales about inventions like the Fischer Space Pen, Omega watches, and even Tang breakfast drink.In addition to fun and entertaining space trivia, Space Oddities also features stories of the profound impact that space travel has had on challenges right here at home, like the effort by civil rights leaders and activists in the 1960s to bring the money from the space program back home to those in need on Earth; NASA's FLATs (First Lady Astronaut Training) program and the 13 women who were selected to become astronauts in 1960, but were denied a chance at flying even after successfully completing the rigorous astronaut training program; and, the animals who many times sacrificed their lives to prove that man could fly in space.Filled with rare and little-known stories, Space Oddities will bring the final frontier to the homes of diehard space readers and armchair astronauts alike.

190. The Power of Your Voice In this episode of the Visibility Factor podcast, host Susan M Barber discusses the importance of recognizing and overcoming limiting beliefs that stem from childhood conditioning and early career experiences. She emphasizes the need for individuals to use their voices and share their ideas, as they can make a significant impact in their organizations and lives. The conversation encourages self-reflection and the breaking of cycles that prevent personal and professional growth. takeaways Childhood conditioning can impact adult behavior and choices. Reflecting on early career experiences can reveal valuable lessons. Limiting beliefs often stem from past experiences and conditioning. It's possible to change limiting beliefs and adopt new ones. Using your voice is crucial for personal and professional success. Self-reflection can help identify areas of growth. Supportive mentors can significantly influence career development.

(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) We continue the exploration from last week, beginning with Donald sharing a few of his experiences of being able to learn and practice when there have been differences of views and even conflicts. Then there is a review of some what we explored last week, including the importance in a functioning democracy of navigating differences of views, some of the factors making that harder in current times, and some of the practice supports for conversations when there are different views—both inner and outer (especially related to wise speech practice). We go further into exploring inner practices helpful when there are differences, including working with reactivity and difficult emotions, exploring views and options, and then the integrated inner and outer practice of cultivating empathy as a practice. The talk is followed by discussion, including several people sharing their own explorations with challenging conversations in the last week.

Monopolistic business practices have been illegal in the United States for more than a century. Yet, monopoly power continues to accelerate in our modern commercial landscape. Large, powerful corporations edge out smaller businesses, often citing scale, “efficiency”, and lower costs as their reasons for success. But looking more closely reveals a reality that is far different. Small businesses are more cost-effective and deliver better results to the people they serve than giant corporations. Furthermore, they form the backbone of engaged and connected communities. So what is actually preventing small businesses (and communities) from flourishing, and what can individuals do today to build economic power in their communities?  In this episode, Nate is joined by economic writer and strategist, Stacy Mitchell, to explore how concentrated economic power shapes the health of towns and cities – from economic resilience to social connectedness. They unpack why big businesses actually deliver poorer, pricier results and more vulnerable supply chains, yet are able squeeze smaller businesses out of the market. Stacy also sheds light on the United States' long history of breaking up monopolies through antitrust laws, and the policy developments in recent decades that have prevented their enforcement.  How do small businesses play an integral role in fostering resilient social capital? Why have we seen an increase in economic consolidation and inequality in the last several decades, and how can we reverse it? Finally, what practical steps can each of us take in our own communities to advance more localized economic systems that better serve people and the planet? (Conversation recorded on September 18th, 2025)    About Stacy Mitchell: Stacy Mitchell is a writer, strategist, and policy advocate. She is Co-Executive Director of the Institute for Local Self-Reliance, an organization that for five decades has challenged the wisdom of neoliberalism and championed local, community-oriented models. She also serves on the board of the Maine Center for Economic Policy.   Additionally, Stacy is the author of Big-Box Swindle: The True Cost of Mega-Retailers and the Fight for America's Independent Businesses. In 2016, she co-authored Amazon's Stranglehold, an influential report that took a critical eye to the e-commerce giant. Congress cited her research on Amazon's monopolization strategy in its investigation of Big Tech's dominance in 2021 and her work informed the Federal Trade Commission's antitrust lawsuit against the company in 2023. She has also worked extensively at the local level, helping communities craft policies that support local entrepreneurship and vibrant commercial districts.    Show Notes and More Watch this video episode on YouTube   Want to learn the broad overview of The Great Simplification in 30 minutes?

In this week's interview, I sat down with Dr. Tom Cowan — a physician turned alternative health pioneer — for a wide-ranging conversation that challenges everything you thought you knew about biology, medicine, and healing. He dares to question the mainstream narrative, peel back the veneer of convention, and invite you into what he calls the New Biology. Together we explore how our culture has become scientifically illiterate and dive into ideas you've rarely heard: why the heart isn't merely a pump, how structured water may hold the key to true vitality, and how emotion, environment, and movement reshape the body from the inside out. Expect thought-provoking detours into immunity, mold, autoimmunity, and what really powers you as an electromagnetic being, not just the chemistry you learned in school. If you're ready to stop treating symptoms and start thinking differently about what it means to be healthy, join us as we pull back the curtain on a new kind of medicine, one that's been hiding in plain sight.

Dr. Grenz, an Nlaka'pamux woman and the Founding Director of the Indigenous Ecology Lab at UBC, advocates for "Two-Eyed Seeing": braiding Indigenous knowledge and Western science to create a stronger, more resilient approach to stewarding our landscapes. The conversation explores how understanding this history is crucial for developing human-centric and effective solutions to environmental challenges.

(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) We continue the exploration from last week, beginning with Donald sharing a few of his experiences of being able to learn and practice when there have been differences of views and even conflicts. Then there is a review of some what we explored last week, including the importance in a functioning democracy of navigating differences of views, some of the factors making that harder in current times, and some of the practice supports for conversations when there are different views—both inner and outer (especially related to wise speech practice). We go further into exploring inner practices helpful when there are differences, including working with reactivity and difficult emotions, exploring views and options, and then the integrated inner and outer practice of cultivating empathy as a practice. The talk is followed by discussion, including several people sharing their own explorations with challenging conversations in the last week.

From the publisher: "When Barack Obama won the White House in 2008, becoming the nation's first Black president, the stage was set for Donald Trump's eventual rise to power. Backlash Presidents shows how, throughout American history, administrations that challenge the country's racial status quo are followed by presidents who deal in racially charged politics and presidential lawlessness, culminating in impeachment crises.In this incisive book, Julia Azari traces the connections between racially transformative presidents and their successors, examining the presidencies of Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson, Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon, and Obama and Trump. When he signed long-awaited civil rights legislation in 1964, Lyndon Johnson unleashed a perfect political storm that swept Nixon into the White House. Azari demonstrates how Nixon's rhetoric, relationship to Congress, and attitudes about executive power exhibit striking parallels with Andrew Johnson and Trump. She discusses how their actions are linked to race and racialized institutions—the Department of War during Reconstruction, the FBI during the Nixon years, and elections today—and looks at what happens after impeachment, describing how the rush to establish a new order perpetuates many of the same problems as the old.Challenging the conventional wisdom about the role of norms in American democracy, Backlash Presidents reveals how normal presidential politics upholds unsustainable racial hierarchy that in turn gives rise to intense periods of instability."For information on Dr. Azari's book from Princeton University Press, head here Support our show and Reach out and Read of Tampa Bay at https://patreon.com/axelbankhistoryAxelbankHistory.com is designed by https://www.ellieclairedesigns.com/Axelbank Reports History and Today" can be found on social media at https://twitter.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://instagram.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://facebook.com/axelbankhistory

Are you navigating division in your business or community? Dan Sullivan and Jeffrey Madoff explore how entrepreneurial thinking helps bridge the gap between opposing sides, keeps innovation moving, and fosters practical empathy. Learn how to find common ground, how to stay curious during challenging times, and why focusing on what you can control leads to real progress. Show Notes: American identity is complex, shaped more by shared beliefs than by politics.​ Deep divisions often go back generations, but most people want similar things: safety, health, and prosperity.​ Entrepreneurial thinking is about agency—owning your choices, not chasing quick money.​ Entrepreneurship is a patriotic act, showing belief in the country you're in and its future. The entrepreneurial journey is a lifetime commitment; few ever return to “normal” jobs.​ Genuine curiosity and empathy help bridge gaps between differing viewpoints.​ In many ways, being American feels almost like having a shared faith—it's deep, personal, and instinctive.​ Americans define themselves by their nationality, while Canadians mostly just know they aren't American; there's less focus on a single national identity up north. Informed, vigorous debate is healthier than shutting out people who disagree with you.​ Find common ground with others; sometimes, a practical approach gets the bills paid and the team moving forward.​ Agency and passion, not money, are what keep entrepreneurs motivated over the long haul.​ Challenging experiences build empathy, resilience, and a shared humanity among entrepreneurs.​ Resources: Learn about Strategic Coach®Learn about Jeffrey MadoffCasting Not Hiring by Dan Sullivan and Jeffrey Madoff

Frank Miller is regarded as one of the most influential and awarded creators. He began his career in comics in the late 1970s, first gaining notoriety as the artist, and later writer, of Daredevil for Marvel Comics. Next, came the science-fiction samurai drama Ronin, followed by the groundbreaking Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and Batman: Year One with artist David Mazzuchelli. Following these seminal works, Miller fulfilled a lifelong dream by doing an all-out crime series, Sin City, which spawned two blockbuster films that he co-directed with Robert Rodriguez. Miller's multi-award-winning graphic novel 300 was also adapted into a highly successful film by Zack Snyder. His upcoming memoir, Push the Wall: My Life, Writing, Drawing, and the Art of Storytelling, is now available for pre-order.This episode is brought to you by: Eight Sleep Pod Cover 5 sleeping solution for dynamic cooling and heating: EightSleep.com/Tim (use code TIM to get $350 off your very own Pod 5 Ultra.)Shopify global commerce platform, providing tools to start, grow, market, and manage a retail business: https://shopify.com/tim (one-dollar-per-month trial period)AG1 all-in-one nutritional supplement: DrinkAG1.com/Tim (1-year supply of Vitamin D (and 5 free AG1 travel packs) with your first subscription purchase.)Timestamps:[00:00:00] Start.[00:02:14] Aristotle's definition of happiness: Devotion to excellence.[00:03:02] Tools of the trade: Blackwing pencils, India ink, liquid frisket.[00:04:45] Sin City‘s physical creation at “twice up” size.[00:08:06] The toothbrush spatter technique.[00:09:24] Channeling impatience, anger, and violence into dramatic creative work.[00:10:33] What Jack Kirby knew about making comics competitive with cinema's spectacle.[00:11:56] Will Eisner and The Spirit‘s influence on the US market where writer-artist duality is rare.[00:13:33] How Jack Kirby blasted apart the panel grid (and a young Frank's mind).[00:15:49] Push the wall and defy the code.[00:19:54] The ruthless mentorship of Neal Adams.[00:24:57] The genesis of the Elektra amd Daredevil “soap opera.”[00:27:56] Story structure: Start late, end early.[00:29:10] Trusting the muse over rigid methodology.[00:31:15] European invasion: Moebius and Forbidden Planet.[00:32:52] Japanese influence: Lone Wolf and Cub‘s impact.[00:34:30] Cultural differences in depicting violence and motion.[00:36:38] Ronin: Shameless imitation and rebirth.[00:37:28] How does Frank know if something is working (or not working)?[00:39:27] The critical reception of Ronin as a “broken nose.”[00:42:37] The ruthless structure of The Dark Knight Returns.[00:43:40] Mutual elevation with “smartest fan” Alan Moore.[00:48:26] Robert Rodriguez: Angel of goodwill and generosity.[00:49:28] Sin City film: Co-directing and the Director's Guild sacrifice.[00:50:31] Working as a “two-headed beast” with Rodriguez.[00:55:27] Favorite films.[00:58:19] Books and ancient history inspiring 300.[00:59:00] Hollywood lessons: The importance of working with the right people.[01:01:13] The partnership and guidance of Silenn Thomas.[01:02:01] The clarity and creative rejuvenation of getting sober from alcohol.[01:04:48] Advice for aspiring comic artists: Story, story, story.[01:06:20] Learning to draw: Bridgman and Loomis books.[01:08:07] Perspective as a mathematical trick and lie.[01:11:00] Dick Giordano's advice: Lay in blacks first.[01:13:52] Sin City workflow innovation: Batch processing stages.[01:15:48] Dark Horse Comics and creative freedom.[01:17:29] Economy of line work and elegant minimalism.[01:20:46] On collaborating with Bill Sienkiewicz on Elektra.[01:25:20] Billboard wisdom: “Ask every question,” and “Why?”[01:27:08] Challenging pathological conformity.[01:27:39] Parting thoughts and where to find Frank's work.*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
