We start off fighting with a cheap plastic recorder that won’t cooperate and complaining about all the trash showing up now that the snow is melting. Then things take a hard turn when we talk about the morning we found a stranger sitting on our living room couch at 5:30 AM. That moment changes how we see our own habits. Leaving the doors unlocked used to feel normal, even harmless. After that morning, it feels careless, and we end up installing an auto-locking digital system. One unexpected person on a couch is enough to turn a casual routine into a security upgrade. From there, we wander into some childhood memories—like techniques for flattening hamsters and lizards. It’s uncomfortable and a little funny in hindsight, but mostly it’s about how small mistakes had very real results. We also talk about AI, comparing it to a nervous friend who sounds confident but gets things wrong. That leads us into a debate about the tangled timeline in Primer and how some kids somehow guess the twist in The Sixth Sense right away. We wrap up by unpacking why hearing “you did your best” can feel like a quiet insult—like the recorder that won’t play right, the door that now locks itself, and the headlamp shining on a problem we didn’t want to see.

Art Marketing Podcast: How to Sell Art Online and Generate Consistent Monthly Sales
Chris Rock performs 50 times in a room of 50 people before he ever steps on a Netflix stage. What if you applied that same system to your art business? Most artists post their work and hope someone buys it. That's like walking on stage at the Apollo with untested material. In this episode, I break down exactly how the best stand-up comedians in the world test, iterate, and refine their material — and how that same system tells you what will sell before you even create it. Plus a 10-week challenge to put it all into practice. In this episode: How Chris Rock, Jerry Seinfeld, and Kevin Hart develop material (and what artists can steal from their process) Why social media is your open mic night — not your gallery wall The 6 types of posts every artist should rotate (the "set list") How to read the room: what saves, shares, and silence actually mean Permission to bomb — why your worst post is more valuable than no post 6 tactical marketing moves disguised as comedy club techniques The 10-week challenge: from open mic to your Netflix special This episode builds on everything from 2026 so far: your story (Ep 1), your one metric (Ep 2), your AI context files (Ep 3), your story prompts (Ep 4), and the Coffee Shop Test (Ep 5). If you've been following along, this is where it all comes together.

We start off fighting with a cheap plastic recorder that won’t cooperate and complaining about all the trash showing up now that the snow is melting. Then things take a hard turn when we talk about the morning we found a stranger sitting on our living room couch at 5:30 AM. That moment changes how we see our own habits. Leaving the doors unlocked used to feel normal, even harmless. After that morning, it feels careless, and we end up installing an auto-locking digital system. One unexpected person on a couch is enough to turn a casual routine into a security upgrade. From there, we wander into some childhood memories—like techniques for flattening hamsters and lizards. It’s uncomfortable and a little funny in hindsight, but mostly it’s about how small mistakes had very real results. We also talk about AI, comparing it to a nervous friend who sounds confident but gets things wrong. That leads us into a debate about the tangled timeline in Primer and how some kids somehow guess the twist in The Sixth Sense right away. We wrap up by unpacking why hearing “you did your best” can feel like a quiet insult—like the recorder that won’t play right, the door that now locks itself, and the headlamp shining on a problem we didn’t want to see.

In this episode, Godfrey and the crew (Dante Nero, Akeem Woods, and Vishnu Vaka) dig deep into culture, history, and hypocrisy. Who really built American music to why certain people lose their minds when the playing field feels even. They break down cultural appropriation vs. respect, the Super Bowl halftime outrage, political double standards, and the erased history of Black inventors who shaped everyday life. Legendary Comedian Godfrey is LIVE from New York, and joins some of his best friends in stand up comedy, Hip-Hop and Hollywood to talk current events, pop culture, race issues, movies, music, TV and Kung Fu. We got endless impressions, a white producer, random videos Godfrey found on the internet and so much more! We're not reinventing the wheel, we're just talking 'ish twice a week...with GODFREY on In Godfrey We Trust.Original Air Date: 02/13/26----------------------------------------------
