Tommy Jackett calls me Dad. I've known and mentored him since he was a teenager and over the years, we have forged a relationship that's part friendship and part pseudo father-son. l've watched him grow, graduate and evolve out of his teens and into fatherhood, family and business and at thirty-six, I love who he's become and I'm impressed by the amazing things he's doing. This was a nice catch-up where, among other things, we chatted about his recent trip to the US to film a documentary about the relationship Americans have with their guns. Fascinating stuff and I think you'll love the conversation. Enjoy. @tommyjackettSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The fabulous Tommy Jackett was back at TYP central for this chat and he didn't disappoint. This was a somewhat philosophical and deep conversation, where the old bloke and the young bloke opened the existential door on meaning and purpose, what drives behaviours and outcomes, programming and conditioning and the way that our perspective and world view change as we get older. Enjoy. @bodhijackett (DJ DAKA)vidpod.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Half a lifetime ago (for him), Tommy Jackett stumbled into my reality as a peculiarly curious, enthusiastic and passionate kid wanting to hang out with, and learn from, yours truly. Kind of weird for a teenager to be obsessed with personal development and my unique style of.. er.. teaching but nonetheless, he was. We've been connected ever since and now at the geriatric age of 35, he's a dad of two, husband of one, successful businessman, gifted creative and not unlike me, something of a man-child. This was a nice chat talking about our individual and connected journeys since we met and some of the interesting lessons and insights to come from those experiences. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tommy, Tiff and I discuss the idea (and practical process) of getting better as we get older.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Videographer extraordinaire and resident pretty boy, Tommy Jackett, is back at TYP for what definitely wasn't a high-brow exchange of philosophy, psychology and/or the meaning of life. It was however, two mates (and Tiff) having a fun discussion about the goings-on of our respective lives. vidpod.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tommy Jackett is back on deck and as always, it's an eclectic, conversational fruit salad of weirdness, science, philosophy, health and human behaviour. Enjoy. vidpod.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For a range of different reasons - some of them business, some of them personal - many of us are keen to build our level of social media ‘engagement'. Put simply, we want more people to watch, hear and interact with us. A drive for more reach, influence, sales, likes, comments, awareness, attention, credibility, interaction and/or social connection (and probably lots more). Well, the social media go-to guy on Planet Harps is Tommy Jackett; one of my five (or-so), pseudo sons. For this episode I pitted the virtual brain (Open AI) against Tommy's organic brain to see where their ‘thinking' diverged and converged. It was fun. Enjoy.  vidpod.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Give me 15 strategies to change my life.” That was the instruction Tommy Jackett typed into ChatGPT (Open AI) before we recorded and ten seconds after his request, he had 15 strategies generated by the virtual brain. He then shared them with me (in real time) on the show to see what my thoughts were about the advice being dispensed (for people) by Artificial Intelligence. It was fun and I may soon be redundant (LOL). Enjoy. vidpod.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

My adopted son (I have a few), Tommy Jackett, is back at TYP freaking me the-f*ck out with some voodoo, magic AI stuff where (before the show) he plugged some of my written work (whiteboard posts mainly) into an ‘Open AI' program (it's a thing), and then ‘asked' the program to interpret my messages into language and terms that a second grader could understand, while not losing the essence of the message. And it f*cking did! It's seriously amazing. He also asked the AI to prepare eight questions for an interview with Craig Harper (and that was the only instruction he typed in). And it did. Honestly, I'm not sure if this stuff is incredible, terrifying or both. I've never felt older (lol). Enjoy.  vidpod.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Clickbait title? Not if it's true! Tommy Jackett has been on TYP a bunch but we've never recorded a show exploring his back story or our friendship. Well, this episode is that. Among other things, we talk about his stripping career with ‘Aussie Spunks' (thought I'd lead with that, LMAO), his desperation to leave school, his time as a breakfast radio host, personal trainer, landscaper and podcaster (over a thousand eps of The Daily Talk Show), and his subsequent creative (and commercial) journey into making cool videos with cool people.

Videographer, Creator, Podcaster, Adopted Son (I have a few) and one of my favourite peeps to do coffee and chat with, Tommy Jackett is back at TYP. This chat follows no particular path or direction but nonetheless, there's a little something in it for everyone. A conversational smorgasbord, of sorts. We chatted about how often I'm asked to be a ‘pseudo-dad' (often), meeting people you've never met who know you well (because of the podcast), love jobs vs. money jobs, hustle culture, inappropriate laughter, imposter syndrome, anti-goals, the way we label things (for better or worse), the science of podcasting (I know it seems like unplanned, chaotic bullshit), excellence and obsession, creating connection, creating a demand for what you do, perceived value and lots more.

Tommy Jackett is back at TYP Central and this time we wax lyrical about ‘self-help' the product versus self-help, the practical process. We also discuss self-criticism, self-awareness and self-regulation, the value of lists and preparation, being taught ‘what' to think versus ‘how' to think, the enormity of conformity, the opposite of boredom, my numerous surrogate sons (I have a few) and lots more.  vidpod.com.au See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tommy is a filmmaker, podcast host, storyteller, husband and father.He has been immersed in content creation for over 10 years and helps brands to understand, capture and share their story through video.

My adopted son TOMMY JACKETT is back in the number 1 seat firing questions at me and we cover some interesting territory including.. the skill of making-shit-up as we go, dealing with constructive feedback, the need to be right, the security blanket of faith and belief, the impossibility of objectivity, confirmation bias, the value of good questions, being okay with uncertainty, our attachment to our opinions and lots more. Enjoy.

A new host… for a day or two. After 550 episodes, it's about time we got someone younger and prettier in the main chair. Tommy Jackett and I have been friends, colleagues and collaborators for more than a decade. Sadly for him, today's guest (and tomorrow's).. is me. It was fun (and weird) being introduced and interviewed on my own show but as always, we found a way to go deep down the philosophical ‘what's-it-all-about' conversational rabbit hole. Enjoy.@tommyjackett

When we stumbled across a video on Matt D'Avella Youtube channel entitled “The truth about chasing your dreams,” we took the bait and had to watch.  After all, this is the DREAM BIG Podcast and Eva's mission is to encourage young Big Dreamers to believe in their dreams and take massive action in pursuit of those dreams.  In the video, Matt shared his “ 3-year rule” which is that in order to find success in any field you need to dedicate at least three years before you can expect to see significant results.  And then he introduced Tommy Jackett and Josh Janssen, 2 friends from Australia who in 2018, 3 years ago, started a podcast called “The Daily Talk Show.”  Now you would expect that since Tommy and Josh had been podcasting for 3 years, they would have found “success,” right?  It turns out that after three long years of consistent hard work, Tommy and Josh did not have nearly as big of an audience as they had expected, nor had they made enough money to quit their day jobs.  But they both still consider their podcasting experience as a huge success! In this episode, Eva explores the meaning of the word “success,” why success does not equal making lots of money, and even shares some unexpected “truths' ' about the Dream Big Podcast, which she has hosted for nearly 5 years now!  Thank you Matt for the beautifully crafted video illuminating this hard truth about chasing your dreams and to Tommy and Josh for reminding us that followers and money does not equal success.    For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/260

A few years ago, I turned some of my words into a video. Well, Tommy Jackett did. Anyway, those words seemed to resonate with quite a few people and that video went (kind-of) viral, with almost a million views through (mainly) Facebook. Today's mini-podcast is the audio from that video (with a backing track) and I don't often say that I like my own work but, after hearing it today for the first time in a few years (and forgetting most of what I wrote), I enjoyed it and weirdly, got a little inspired. If you know someone who needs some inspiration, please share it with them. Thanks.
