Podcast appearances and mentions of Rick Rubin

Flute 360 | Episode 332: "Is It the Universe…or God? Rethinking the Creative Process as a Flutist" In this solo episode, Dr. Heidi Kay Begay invites you into a vulnerable, soulful conversation about creativity, faith, and what it truly means to be a modern-day artist. Inspired by the Flute 360 Accelerator's June book club selection, The Creative Act by Rick Rubin, Heidi reflects on how the book reshaped her understanding of artistry — and how viewing “the Source” through a faith-based lens revealed a deeper truth: that we are co-creators with God. This is not just a book review. It's a gentle nudge for any flutist who's been questioning their identity, comparing their path to others, or wondering whether their art still matters in a season of change or healing. Whether you're playing, podcasting, composing, writing, or resting — this episode will remind you that your creativity is still valid. Still sacred. And still very much needed. Main Points: Why redefining “the Source” as God can ground and deepen your creative process The lie that says “If I'm not performing, I'm not creating” — and how to rewrite that story What it means to be a flutist in a season of injury, recovery, or transformation How to release comparison and show up in your own artistic lane with joy and freedom Why your artistry counts — even if it looks different than it used to How the Flute 360 Accelerator creates a space for flutists to reflect, grow, and connect Resources: Book: The Creative Act by Rick Rubin Join the Flute 360 Accelerator Program: Click Here to Enroll – Tier 1, 2, or 3 Subscribe + Review: If you loved this conversation, please subscribe and leave a review.

Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter who just released a new single this past Friday and has a new album in the works. Her previous single reached number 2 on the Mediabase Top 40 Pop Independent Artist chart and even hit the Top 40 Pop chart. Plus, the track was also featured in SPIN, LA Weekly, and Rolling Stone UK. Five months ago, the music video for her previous single was released and is up to more than three-quarters-of-a-million views on YouTube. She previously had earned recognition with her remake of the Beastie Boys' song "FIGHT," which was licensed by SONY ATV and received approval from both the Beastie Boys and producer Rick Rubin.

She has opened for high-profile artists such as Lil Jon, Mike Jones, and Soulja Boy. She has also been featured on television shows, including a live performance on Bravo TV's ‘Watch What Happens Live,' where she was both a guest and one of the first musical performers in the show's history.

Record producer Rick Rubin once said, “Don't worry about what's cool or what's popular. Go after what's interesting to you.” In this episode, Jen and Dyana explore the power of following your interests, staying curious, and navigating the resistance that often comes from the outside world. Whether it's tackling a long thru-hike, getting into crafting, or diving into 1970s landscape art (Dyana's latest obsession), curiosity is your greatest teacher—and it'll always point you in the right direction. The duo also reflects on past podcast guests who've fearlessly followed their passions, showing that curiosity isn't just a spark—it's a path to growth, fulfillment, and a life well-lived.Send us a textWhere to find and support Bush & Banter: Follow Bush & Banter on Instagram: @bushandbanter Visit Bush & Banter's website: www.bushandbanter.com Join Bush & Banter's Patreon community: patreon.com/bushandbanter E-mail Bush & Banter: bushandbanter@gmail.com Follow Dyana on Instagram: @dyanacarmella Follow Jennifer on Instagram: @thewhimsicalwoman

Once upon a time, I was creating art without calling it that. I made up stories in my head and acted them out with my Barbies. I dreamt of faraway worlds and lived in them for a while.Now, as a (semi) adult, my brain has decided to sprinkle in self-doubt, perfectionism, and a hearty dose of criticism — and call it a personality.In the first part of this five-part series — structured around the questions I ask myself (and attempt to answer without spiraling) — I explore how we can become most free in the act of creation. Why channeling your inner child isn't quite enough. And how to feel less blocked, less critical, and maybe even a little okay with what you make.With wisdom from some of the creatives in my life, plus guidance from Rick Rubin (aka The Creative Act: A Way of Being), I share what's helped me feel less stuck, and like someone who actually make things.Whether you're a full-time artist, or just someone with feelings and a Pinterest board, this one's for you.If you liked what you heard, make sure to give this podcast five stars, a follow and let me know what I can improve in the comments.

In this episode, Ian Dench of EMF joins the show to discuss the writing and recording of the band's explosive 1991 hit, “Unbelievable.” From its instantly recognizable hook to its genre-blending sound, the song became a cultural phenomenon and an enduring stadium anthem. Ian offers a look behind the curtain at the song's construction, including its layered instrumentation, unique pre-chorus, and the clever use of samples—most notably the shout of “Oh!” lifted from Andrew Dice Clay's stand-up album. He also recounts how a chance encounter with Rick Rubin at a New York restaurant led to Rubin casually granting sample clearance with the words, “Fax my office in the morning.” The conversation explores the emotional and musical influences that shaped the track, the challenges of creating in the analog era, and how personal experiences and playful experimentation helped fuel the song's unforgettable energy.

In this episode of The Creative Genius Podcast, I talk with designer, writer, and thinker Ben Rennie, author of a new book that explores the transformative power of curiosity and creativity. Together, we unpack the dynamic relationship between curiosity, creativity, and confidence, and how this path can guide us to overcome fear and step more fully into our potential. Ben shares his personal story—sparked by a promise to his late mother—that led him to examine how people find themselves in powerful, unexpected places.We explore the idea that creativity isn't limited to the arts but is instead the ability to see things differently, solve problems, and bring ideas to life. Through vivid stories and practical wisdom, Ben and I explore how curiosity is the antidote to fear, how creativity naturally flows from curiosity, and how confidence is built by simply beginning—and continuing—to create.From imposter syndrome at a Dolce & Gabbana event to finding inspiration in nature, this conversation is a powerful invitation to get curious, stay creative, and be kind to yourself in the process.Topics Covered:How curiosity dissolves fearWhy creativity is about seeing possibilities, not just making artReframing repetition: why doing what's been done before is still meaningfulHow creative confidence is earned through actionThe role of environment and nature in creative flow Navigating imposter syndromeand Honouring your pathResources & Mentions: Ben Rennie's new book Ben's “Wednesdays” blog on Medium Brene Brown Steve Jobs: “You can't connect the dots looking forward…” Meredith Hite-Estevez: “Join a song already singing” Rick Rubin: on creativity and remixing existing ideasTakeaways / Call to Action:Follow your curiosity—it's the best antidote to fear Just start, even if it's been done before—your voice mattersPractice regularly and create space for your creativityCapture your ideas on the goBe gentle with yourselfSpend time in nature to reset and reconnect

New roundtable! This week I'm joined by Raven Hunter & L.E.J. to talk about maybe the most important Hip-Hop label in history. Started in the mid 80's by Russell Simmons & Rick Rubin, Def Jam quickly became the face of Hip-Hop culture. And remained that for decades after. This one was hard, but we all get down to our top 10 albums released by Def Jam. As always you can find the audio version on all major podcast platforms & the video version on YouTube.Follow us on Instagram, X & Tik Tok: @b_boypodcastFind us online: www.riplak .comFollow Raven Hunter on Instagram & X: @ravenhunteryps

In this episode, Lij Shaw chats with Ben Sabin, founder of Trace Audio, about his journey from Shangri-La Studio with Rick Rubin to wiring up some of the best studios in the biz. They dive deep into the mystical world of cables, the magic of patch bays, and why good studio wiring is like rock ‘n' roll feng shui — get it right, and everything just flows! Ben shares cool stories from his intern days, working with legends like Neil Young, and the hard-earned lessons of studio troubleshooting. They break down balanced vs. unbalanced audio, why your patch bay might be sabotaging your creativity, and how to future-proof your studio setup. Plus, if you've ever wondered how to avoid a spaghetti mess of cables, this episode is for you! Get access to FREE mixing mini-course: https://MixMasterBundle.com My guest today is Ben Sabin. He got his start at Shangri-La with Rick Rubin, where he saw top artists and engineers work at the highest level. He then split time between Shangri-La and Groove Masters, helping rewire tie lines, patchbays, and converters—sparking his passion for cabling and studio workflow. He also worked alongside legendary studio tech Pat Schneider on servicing and repairs. In 2018, he helped LA producer Colin Cunningham set up patchbays and streamline his growing outboard gear collection. He then worked in live sound, gaining hands-on troubleshooting experience. In 2019, he founded Trace Audio, focusing on CAPI gear and custom cabling, relocating to Nashville, where it's now a full-time business serving top industry clients. Ben also rewired my studio, The Toy Box Studio, and I quickly saw how much we could learn from him—so I had to invite him on the podcast to talk about creatin the best setup for your studio.

In this episode a16z co-founders Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz sit down with legendary music producer and bestselling author Rick Rubin to explore the origin of his unexpected new creation: "The Way of Code"*Blending ancient philosophy and modern AI, The Way of Code reimagines the 3,000-year-old Tao Te Ching for the age of artificial intelligence, software, and “vibe coding.” What began as a viral tweet quickly evolved into a creative manifesto—part book, part tool, part spiritual operating system for the future. Joined by a16z General Partners Anjney Midha and Erik Torenberg, the group dives deep into: How Rick became a meme for Vibe Coding —and then quickly wrote "The Way of Code"Why AI is just another artistic toolRemix culture, creativity, and collective consciousnessWhy great founders and artists need to stay true to themselvesWith shout outs to punk rock, the collective unconscious, and Johnny Cash's famed acoustic sessions, this conversation is a sprawling, soul-searching journey across music, philosophy, tech, and truth. We hope you enjoy this deeply personal and surprisingly practical conversation on how to live—and create—in the age of AI. The Way of Code:  https://www.thewayofcode.com/“Tools will come and tools will go.

Legendary music producer Rick Rubin joins NLW on The AI Daily Brief for a singular conversation about creativity, technology, and how a meme turned into something much deeper. After unexpectedly becoming the internet's unofficial mascot of “vibe coding,” Rubin leaned into the joke—and emerged with a profound new collaboration: The Way of Code, a Tao Te Ching–inspired, interactive living book co-created with Anthropic and Claude.Read "The Way of Code" - https://www.thewayofcode.com/They explore why Rubin, famously a non-technical producer, sees alignment between ancient philosophy and generative AI; how vibe coding democratizes creativity and expands taste; and why he believes AI won't replace artists—but might help us see differently. The conversation spans Jay-Z and Johnny Cash, orchestration and intention, and how great art often begins where certainty ends.If you've ever wondered what the future of creative collaboration looks like—or what happens when Rick Rubin writes a book about something he doesn't understand—this is the episode for you.Get Ad Free AI Daily Brief: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://patreon.com/AIDailyBrief⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Brought to you by:KPMG – Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://kpmg.com/ai⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to learn more about how KPMG can help you drive value with our AI solutions.Blitzy.com - Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://blitzy.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to build enterprise software in days, not months Vertice Labs - Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://verticelabs.io/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - the AI-native digital consulting firm specializing in product development and AI agents for small to medium-sized businesses.The Agent Readiness Audit from Superintelligent - Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://besuper.ai/ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to request your company's agent readiness score.The AI Daily Brief helps you understand the most important news and discussions in AI.

In this episode, we caught up with the talented artist and songwriter God. He shared the story behind his name choice and how his skills as a music artist developed by watching his father, the lead singer of the legendary R&B group Public Announcement. We took a deep dive into God's journey, exploring his past, including a period when he was on the run from the law. He left Chicago for Atlanta, giving himself 90 days to lock in on his music career before the police could catch up to him.God also revealed how his cousin, who worked on videos for 2 Chainz, got an opportunity from the famous vlog site Worldstar. This connection helped God attract attention from major names in the industry. At one point, he was preparing to sign with Jermaine Dupri, but Juicy J swooped in and offered him a publishing deal. He shared an incredible story of crossing paths with hip-hop legend Rick Rubin and how he collaborated with Kanye West on one of the biggest tracks from "The Life of Pablo" album. Although Kanye was interested in signing him, the deal never materialized. With a Grammy nomination and over 30 million records sold, God has worked with numerous favorite artists and is now focusing on his own music, which is set to be released soon, while continuing to collaborate with Juicy J on other artists' records. His journey is a remarkable testament to perseverance and the power of seizing opportunities in the music industry.--Connect With Us On Social Media ----- Instagram:⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/illanoizeradio⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/illanoizeradio⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.facebook.com/illanoizeradio⁠⁠⁠

This time around, we have a bit of a different format, featuring the book that started it all for me, The 4-Hour Workweek. Readers and listeners often ask me what I would change or update, but an equally interesting question is: what wouldn't I change? What stands the test of time and hasn't lost any potency? This episode features two of the most important chapters from the audiobook of The 4-Hour Workweek. The chapters push you to defend your scarce attention—one by saying no to people, the other by saying no to excess information.Sponsors:David Protein Bars 28g of protein, 150 calories, and 0g of sugar: https://davidprotein.com/tim (Buy 4 cartons, get the 5th free.)Our Place's Titanium Always Pan® Pro using nonstick technology that's coating-free and made without PFAS, otherwise known as “Forever Chemicals”: https://fromourplace.com/tim (Shop their Spring Sale today!)AG1 all-in-one nutritional supplement: https://DrinkAG1.com/Tim (1-year supply of Vitamin D (and 5 free AG1 travel packs) with your first subscription purchase.)*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/timferrissPast guests on The Tim Ferriss Show include Jerry Seinfeld, Hugh Jackman, Dr. Jane Goodall, LeBron James, Kevin Hart, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Jamie Foxx, Matthew McConaughey, Esther Perel, Elizabeth Gilbert, Terry Crews, Sia, Yuval Noah Harari, Malcolm Gladwell, Madeleine Albright, Cheryl Strayed, Jim Collins, Mary Karr, Maria Popova, Sam Harris, Michael Phelps, Bob Iger, Edward Norton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Neil Strauss, Ken Burns, Maria Sharapova, Marc Andreessen, Neil Gaiman, Neil de Grasse Tyson, Jocko Willink, Daniel Ek, Kelly Slater, Dr. Peter Attia, Seth Godin, Howard Marks, Dr. Brené Brown, Eric Schmidt, Michael Lewis, Joe Gebbia, Michael Pollan, Dr. Jordan Peterson, Vince Vaughn, Brian Koppelman, Ramit Sethi, Dax Shepard, Tony Robbins, Jim Dethmer, Dan Harris, Ray Dalio, Naval Ravikant, Vitalik Buterin, Elizabeth Lesser, Amanda Palmer, Katie Haun, Sir Richard Branson, Chuck Palahniuk, Arianna Huffington, Reid Hoffman, Bill Burr, Whitney Cummings, Rick Rubin, Dr. Vivek Murthy, Darren Aronofsky, Margaret Atwood, Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel, Dr. Gabor Maté, Anne Lamott, Sarah Silverman, Dr. Andrew Huberman, and many more.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Chelsea and Death, Sex & Money host Anna Sale dive into Lucinda Williams's memoir “Don't Tell Anybody the Secrets I Told You.” They explore the Southern women who influenced Lucinda's life, her late-in-life rise to fame, and the time Rosanne Cash tried to glam her up for the Grammys (and Lucinda ghosted).

On the latest episode of Off the Edge with Cam Jordan, Cam is joined by Broken Record co-host and producer Justin Richmond. The two bond over their Cal Berkeley roots, as Justin recalls thinking his college acceptance was a scam, so much so that he drove to campus to confirm it in person. Justin also explains how he was able to earn a Bachelor's and Master’s degree despite never finishing high school or getting a GED. The conversation shifts to podcasting, where Justin details how he got his start and what it’s like producing and co-hosting alongside icons Rick Rubin and Malcolm Gladwell, plus the pressure of stepping into the role as lead host. Justin shares why Will Smith and Prince are the only celebrities to leave him starstruck, including the mystical moment he met Prince complete with a “purple glow” as the icon walked into the room. To close it out, Cam drops his Top 5 hip-hop artists, leading to a back-and-forth with Justin over one major name he left off his list. Off the Edge with Cam Jordan is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeart Media.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Discipline and freedom go hand in hand - implementing structure in your life can unlock creativity, joy, and long-term success. As entrepreneurs, we can have all the goals, dreams, and good intentions in the world, but without discipline, none of it matters. Lately, I've been reading The Creative Act: A Way of Being by Rick Rubin, and one section on discipline really stopped me in my tracks. It reminded me that discipline isn't about restriction - it's about creating the freedom to do what we truly love. Let's dive into five ways you can build more discipline into your life! Action Plan: 1 - Define Your Non-Negotiables: Get clear on what absolutely must happen in your business and life - treat these like brushing your teeth, no excuses. 2 - Create a System, Not Just a Goal: Goals are great, but systems are what keep you moving forward - set up routines that make discipline automatic. 3 - Time Block Like a Pro: Structure your schedule intentionally, dedicating specific time blocks to deep work, content creation, and rest. 4 - Eliminate Decision Fatigue: Simplify daily choices by meal prepping, pre-planning content, and having a structured to-do list to conserve mental energy. 5 - Use Rewards and Consequences: Give yourself incentives to stay on track, whether it's a coffee treat for completing tasks or a consequence for missed deadlines.
