Podcast appearances and mentions of jon chang

Perhaps the key to living a full life is to live many lives. On this episode of The Bridge, Travis Haley sits down with Jon Chang, the visionary behind Black Powder Red Earth—a visceral graphic novel narrative with it's own video and table top board game that reflects the inner mechanisms and complexity of modern military scenarios—and the founder of The Dread and Fear of Kings, a luxury men's wear label with a mission-driven focus. Jon's journey is tightly woven with Travis'. Both played crucial roles in developing Magpul Dynamics, where they redefined tactics, training and product innovation. When Travis left to establish Haley Strategic, Jon was right there with him, helping to shape the brand's foundation and direction. This episode delves into Jon's unique approach to storytelling and design, how his tactical expertise informed the creation of BPRE, and how that same precision and purpose is evident in his apparel line. Don't miss this conversation between two pioneers discussing the evolution of design within our industry and community.

Sometimes a record comes along that changes the way you perceive extreme music. Whether it intended to or not, Discordance Axis' third & final album rewrote the book on grindcore which influence can be felt today. After a two-year hiatus, Discordance Axis recorded, mixed, & mastered their epitaph in just four days. No click track. No headphones. Just a lightning in a bottle recording session with three musicians firing on all cylinders. It combined the emotional and impactful lyricism of Jon Chang backed by the undeniable fury of Rob Marton and Dave Witte. Join us this week on Riff Worship as we discuss Discordance Axis' The Alienable Dreamless

This is the second half of our conversation with the Requiem Metal podcast about the grindcore band Discordance Axis. In this half we dig into the way they incorporate images and concepts from Neon Genesis Evangelion. We also talk about Discordance Axis's spiritual successor Gridlink, who frequently referenced bullet video games, mecha anime, and the War on Terror in their work. Special thanks to Jon Chang for his interview, and to Jason Hudney and Mark Rudolph from Requiem. Requiem is one of the most in-depth and thoroughly researched msuic history shows around.

In this week’s episode of The Breakout Growth Podcast, hosts Sean Ellis and Ethan Garr speak with Jon Chang who recently took on the Head of Growth role at Nate. Nate is a new service that allows consumers to buy products from any e-commerce site with just one click. You may remember Jon from his first appearance on the podcast when he was a growth lead at Klarna, a rocketship Fintech company now valued at more than $45 Billion. His experience and approach offer valuable insights for leaders at fast-growing companies struggling to hire the right people to build on strong growth rates as well as individual growth and marketing professionals who are looking to find their next great opportunities. This week’s episode is sponsored by Rise with SAP. Why did Jon leave this nearly 6000 person rocketship for a fast-growing, but relatively small 70 person startup? Well, when we saw Jon had shared a LinkedIn Post, by another former guest, Mayur Gupta (formerly Marketing/Growth lead at of Freshly and Spotify and now at Gannett Publications), it gave us a great starting point to answer that and other questions: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6883531385433321472/ Mayur encourages every marketer to get startup experience at some point in their journey, and suggests that the earlier the better. Jon agrees, and as a self-described builder, he explains not just why this matters, but also how it informs his approach for hiring and leading growth. Jon is obsessed with building teams and driving organizational efficiencies, but his approach is anything but clinical. From his thoughts on mentoring to his focus on soft skills, this discussion is really about a people-driven mindset to powering growth. Please remember to check out this week’s sponsor, RISE with SAP S/4Hana Cloud. If you have ambitious goals, SAP is the technology partner you need to scale and drive innovation. Instead of relying on stitched together solutions to manage business finances, operations, and customer relations, leverage the flexibility of SAP’s cloud-based ERP solution to gain the insights that will help drive your breakout growth success.

Technically, Klarna is a Fintech company; a Swedish bank that provides online financial services such as payments for online storefronts, direct payments, and more. However, in this episode of the Breakout Growth Podcast we learn that Klarna is not an ordinary Fintech startup at all. Their breakout growth success, which has seen a valuation increase from $2.5B to more than $10B in just the past year and a quarter (5:40) offers powerful lessons on how growth is built on a foundation of strong product/market fit coupled with great execution, and a data-driven test/learn process. The company is driving innovation and making shopping simple, safe and smooth for millions of consumers, and in this interview, Sean interviews Jon Chang, Global Head of Shopping Growth Marketing, who joined the company in August of 2019. In that short time period, the company’s US operations have grown 10X and Jon describes that success as being an output of “doing a good job of preparing ourselves to be lucky” (14:10). We discover exactly what that means as Jon explains how he and his team structure and execute their approach to accelerating growth. The company now has over 3000 employees broken down into 400 teams. More than 150 of those employees are focused directly on growth, and we find out that it takes very intentional culture-building effort to drive cross-functional alignment across such a massive and growing organization (24:06). Although the name Klarna may be new to you today, this is a company that is having a massive impact on the world in which we live. We discussed: Impacts of Covid-19, and how the company has responded and grown through the crisis (6:30) The company’s unique mobile app that “ingests the entire internet” to offer unique buying power to consumers (14:10) How the company has evolved over its 15-year history, including a pivot from B2B to B2C sales (16:58) Jon’s test/learn growth approach and how a marketing experiment recently yielded a 7x increase in installs (28:53) How the company culture which led to 10X growth in the US in one year, looks to do that again this year (41:40)

One on One with Jon Chang, Kickstarter by DMN One-on-One

In this episode, Sean K interviews Jon Chang, the former vocalist of the legendary New Jersey grindcore band Discordance Axis. Jon Chang talks about the early days of DA and his experiences with his more recent bands Haiyano Daisuki and Gridlink. He also talks about his new graphic novel series Black Powder Red Earth.

If you were a band geek, an orch dork or a member of the choir cult, you may have heard about “perfect pitch.” The people who have it are sometimes seen as exemplary musicians who will go on to study music in college, get a job as a professional musician and blow the classical scene away. Unfortunately, it’s not something that people can learn whenever they want. If you’re more than 10 years old, you either already have it or will never have it. Even though there’s a hoopla about perfect pitch, we know very little about how it works or even what the experience is like. Reporter (and amateur musician) Jon Chang goes back to school in order to learn more.

In our 13th episode Jon Chang and Trevor Schoenfeld discuss stereotypes in cinema after hearing about a Nascar Transformer with a mullet that will be in the upcoming third Transformers film.
