We swapped 40 Ford Mavericks into our home service fleet — and the results changed the way we think about fleet management.Most home service companies are overspending on vehicles without realizing it. A new service van can cost $50,000–$60,000 today. A Ford Maverick? Around $27,000. We now run 40 Mavericks inside a 120+ vehicle fleet — and we've lowered overhead, reduced accidents, improved fuel economy, and still get the job done without sacrificing operational efficiency.In this episode, we break down:→ Why the “you can't run service out of a small truck” argument is outdated→ How we use Packout systems and standardized inventory kits to maximize space→ The sales-to-install model that makes smaller vehicles work at scale→ The real numbers behind fleet costs, efficiency, and utilization→ Why two Mavericks can outperform one traditional service van

Jayden Sheridan was just 17 years old when he found out he was going to be a father, and immediately Jayden knew he needed to give his son better opportunities than he ever had growing up in regional Victoria. (R)In Seymour, which is one of the most disadvantaged postcodes in Australia, Jayden experienced homelessness, substance abuse, violence and a general lack of direction. He had no male role models in his life, but he did have the local skate park.It's where he went to feel safe and to feel himself, and Jayden wanted to create that same feeling for his son, and all the other kids in his town of Seymour.What started as adhoc skate lessons quickly turned into Gnarly Neighbours, something far bigger and more impactful than 17-year-old Jayden could have imagined.Jayden has recently been selected as a 2026 Westpac Social Change Fellow. His fellowship involves travelling across the US, Europe and the UK to learn from organisations doing similar work in creative and trauma-informed mentoring for young people.You can learn more about Gnarly Neighbours here.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris. Executive Producer was Carmel Rooney.This episode of Conversations explores substance abuse, drug use, drug dealing, expulsion, troubled children, mental health, bipolar disorder, teen parenting, teen fatherhood, teen motherhood, skateboarding, skating, streetwear, origin stories, family dynamics, male role models, father figures, dysfunctional families, single parenting, rural and regional Australia, masculinity, manhood, rites of passage, mentoring.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

Brock is one of snowboarding's hidden gems, posted up behind the lens. Quiet, observant and constantly digesting the world through a camera, you can feel that raw authenticity in everything he creates. From getting thrown into the mix with legends like Nate Bozung and Matty Ryan during the iconic BOZWRECK era, Brock helped document a true cult classic chapter of snowboard filmmaking. He captured and brought to life a side of snowboarding that was often overlooked by the mainstream. Names like Bradshaw, Bennee, Deadlung and Keegan are just a few of the legends he filmed during the prime of their careers. Over the years, Brock has continued to build a style that feels timeless, he has the ability to make moments feel real, not staged or forced. The last Brown Cinema film - Knights Of The Brown Table says it all. From Absinthe Films, Adidas, Torment Magazine, The North Face, SIMS and beyond riders, brands and snowboarding as a hole are grateful to have him in the mix. So what's next for Brock? Tune in. Thanks for coming on the show!  Presented by Monster Enegery  Supported by Vans, Arc'teryx, The Source, Gibbons Whistler, Baldface Lodge

What happens when those who protect and serve, determine they need additional compensation? That's the theme with this week's movies: Triple Frontier (2019) and The Rip (2026). And while these movies have more in common than Ben Affleck, they each take a circuitous route to similar conclusions.

In this high-energy closing session of the Retail Collective Summit, we bring together a powerhouse panel of creative disruptors and marketing legends to deconstruct the new rules of brand building. Featuring leaders from Vans, Final Boss Sour, VidAngel, Creatably, and Biggest Agency, this discussion cuts through the noise of traditional advertising to reveal how "Content is the New Commerce." The panel explores the shift from polished, corporate messaging to the raw, high-stakes world of creator-led brands. From the "Mugatu-style" viral marketing of Final Boss Sour to the deep brand equity studies of Vans, these experts share how to capture attention in an era where consumers value authenticity above all else.

The mobile grooming industry is booming. Vans are multiplying, waitlists are growing, and premium pricing seems to be sticking — even in a shifting economy. But as more mobile units hit the road, an important question emerges: Is mobile grooming a smart long-term expansion strategy… or are we heading toward saturation? In this episode of Pet Shop Girls, we sit down with Anthony Pastrick, Vice President of Marketing, and Chaz Bellman, Director of Customer Success at Wag'n Tails, to unpack the business behind the buzz. We move beyond the surface-level excitement and dive into sustainability, operational realities, and what independent retailers and groomers need to consider before investing in a mobile unit. If you're exploring adding grooming to your store — or wondering whether mobile could be the right move — this episode delivers clarity, not just hype. sales@wagntails.com 800-513-0304 www.wagntails.com Join the Indie Insider Group: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/share/g/14Z5WsKrMgN/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with the Pet Shop Girls!

If you could either time travel in a van or instantly absorb all knowledge from books with a magic ring… which one are you choosing?Before you answer, just know this: the crew of this daily comedy show took this question VERY seriously… and immediately used it to derail the space-time continuum, rewrite history, and emotionally spiral.On this episode of The Rizzuto Show — your favorite daily comedy show that absolutely should not be trusted with hypothetical power — the gang debates the pros and cons of unlimited knowledge vs unlimited time travel. Turns out, knowing everything might make you lonely, and time travel might turn you into a full-blown history meddler with questionable morals.Lern wants to fix the world. Rizzuto wants to… well… handle historical situations his own way. Rafe is slapping “Risky Business” on a time-travel van and calling it a day. Meanwhile, the “Ring Boys” are over here trying to become geniuses without accidentally giving themselves a brain aneurysm.And that's just the FIRST chunk of the show.We also get into:The results of March Movie Mayhem (and yes, people got heated)A Liquid Death stunt that turns your entire house into a sparkling water faucet fever dreamCelebrity chaos featuring attempted murder charges, kidnapping allegations, and more “what is happening” momentsCourtney Love casually telling a story that somehow gets more unbelievable the longer it goesTiger Woods having possibly the most “do you know who I am?” moment of all timeBasically, it's everything you expect from a daily comedy show that thrives on sarcasm, ridiculous debates, and moments where everyone questions reality — including themselves.If you're here for a funny podcast that mixes pop culture, weird news, and conversations that go completely off the rails… welcome home.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week, I'm speaking with Steve Olson. Skateboarding has produced its fair share of personalities, but few have left their mark with as much style as Steve. From skateboarding, to acting, to fine art, Steve has moved through his life with a finesse uniquely his own.As a teenager, he was voted Skateboarder of the Year, helping to inject a punk rock attitude and aesthetic to the sport, much to the chagrin of the industry at the time. As skateboarding's popularity began to wane, Steve made his way into commodities trading, while at the same time keeping one foot firmly planted on his board. When skateboarding found a renaissance in the mid 80's, he capitalized on the timing by introducing his own brand, garnering attention both inside and outside of the sport. A foray into acting led to modeling and commercial opportunities, with Steve ultimately settling into his current career as a fine artist. During the course of our conversation, we discuss introducing the iconic checkerboard to Vans, shooting the cover of Skateboarder Magazine, and being responsible for the first father/son legacy in skateboarding.Ever humble and always entertaining, it is my pleasure to present Steve Olson on The Days Between..

Alyse Russel, Senior Manager of Global Sustainability Programs at VF Corporation, joins Climate Rising to discuss how one of the world's largest apparel companies is embedding sustainability across a complex, multi-brand supply chain. VF owns major global brands including Vans, The North Face, and Timberland, and is working to reduce product-related emissions by transforming how key materials are sourced and produced. The conversation explores why raw materials—such as cotton, leather, rubber, and wool—account for the majority of VF's emissions footprint, and how the company is prioritizing regenerative agriculture to address this challenge. Alyse explains how VF is scaling regenerative cotton, rubber, and wool programs across different geographies, while navigating trade-offs related to cost, verification, and supply chain complexity. The episode also examines how VF collaborates with farmers, NGOs, and researchers to implement regenerative practices, the challenges of measuring outcomes like soil carbon and biodiversity, and the evolving role of traceability and certification in validating sustainability claims. Alyse also reflects on the future of regenerative agriculture in the apparel sector, including the need for better standards, broader environmental metrics beyond carbon, and stronger industry-wide coordination.

The Afeela 1, priced from $89,900 with deliveries planned for late 2026, has been cancelled alongside a second model targeting 2028, with California reservation holders receiving full refunds.MG TEASES SOLIDCORE BATTERYMG Motor has opened a third European engineering centre in Frankfurt and unveiled SolidCore, a semi-solid-state battery cell using a manganese-based cathode, semi-solid electrolyte shield, and graphite anode — claiming improvements in safety, range, durability and cold-weather performance without providing specific figures. MG claims to be the first automaker to mass-produce a semi-solid-state battery, though the distinction from a similar cell already in China-market MG4s since December 2025 remains unclear; SolidCore is expected in European EVs by end of 2026.EV CAR/VAN CONVERSIONS FROM RENAULT AND VOLVORenault has revealed an electric Twingo van conversion developed for EDF, doubling load capacity from 360 to 797 litres via a removable rear seat, mesh bulkhead, and cargo cage — though the concept remains unlikely to reach UK sale. Volvo UK is already in market with the EX30 Cargo, a fleet-only compact van offering 1,000 litres of capacity, 390kg payload, and a top dual-motor variant producing 423bhp with a 0–62mph time of 3.6 seconds.AUSTRALIAN FUEL SHORTAGES SPREAD WITHOUT SUPPLY LOSSPanic buying — not supply disruption — has left over 500 petrol stations across Australia short of at least one fuel grade, with New South Wales worst affected at 289 sites, including 164 diesel-dry locations pushing diesel prices above $3 per litre. Authorities have not declared a national fuel emergency or introduced rationing, with Victoria's Energy Minister confirming the strain is entirely driven by consumer behaviour rather than any import disruption.VAUXHALL ASTRA FACELIFT STARTS AT £29,995The facelifted Vauxhall Astra starts at £29,995 across mild hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and full EV variants in both hatchback and Sports Tourer estate, with the PHEV's battery growing from 12.4kWh to 17.2kWh for 52 miles of official electric range and a BiK rate of 10% — undercutting the Golf eHybrid by £6,490. The Astra Electric uses a 154bhp motor with 55.4kWh usable battery, 281 miles of quoted range, and 100kW DC charging covering 20–80% in around 30 minutes.UK PLEDGES £1 BILLION FOR FLEET ELECTRIFICATIONThe UK government has committed £1 billion to commercial fleet electrification, with the Zero Emissions Truck and Van scheme covering up to 40% of purchase costs — reaching £81,000 for the heaviest electric trucks and £5,000 for vans, though reduced from a previous maximum of £120,000 for trucks over 26 tonnes. A separate £170 million uplift to the Depot Charging Scheme allows businesses to reclaim up to 70% of depot charging installation costs, capped at £1 million per application.SK SIGNET STARTS TEXAS BUILD OF 400-KW CHARGERSK Signet has begun production of a 400-kW all-in-one DC fast charger at its Texas facility, using silicon carbide electronics to achieve 96.5% conversion efficiency while reducing its physical footprint by up to 54% versus its predecessor. A modular design offers 320–400kW output tiers, supports one to four CCS1/NACS ports delivering a stable 150–250kW per vehicle simultaneously, and features a 32-inch outdoor touchscreen with Plug & Charge, credit card, and RFID payment support.ROLLS-ROYCE OPENS ELECTRIC COACHBUILD PROGRAMMERolls-Royce has launched the Coachbuild Collection, a new electric coachbuilding programme for ultra-high-net-worth clients, with every vehicle fully road-legal and homologated — unlike predecessors Sweptail, Boatail, and Droptail. The first model will be fully electric, with powertrain, design, and interior details expected later in 2026, supported by a Private Office Network across Dubai, Seoul, Shanghai, New York, and Goodwood.FERRARI TUNES LUCE FOR FEEL, NOT FIGURESFerrari says its first fully electric car, the Luce, will prioritise driver feel over headline performance figures, with CEO Benedetto Vigna consulting NASA and medical centres to identify the point at which EV acceleration becomes neurologically disturbing. Ferrari identified five distinct generators of driving thrills and is focusing on issues such as battery placement to address the mismatch between visual and vestibular cues in cornering caused by heavy EV battery packs.XPENG AUSTRALIA DISTRIBUTOR ENTERS ADMINISTRATIONXPeng's sole Australian distributor, Sydney-based TrueEV, has entered external administration after a lender stepped in over unmet financing arrangements, with insolvency specialists now managing and selling close to 200 G6 vehicles across Melbourne, Brisbane, Wollongong, and Fremantle. A simultaneous legal dispute between TrueEV and XPeng has escalated to court action, leaving the brand's planned 2026 Australian expansion — including the X9 and G9 models — in serious doubt with no clarity offered to existing customers.

We sat down with some of the legends at Natural Selection Tour 2026, plus a few of the people behind the scenes who keep the whole thing moving. Featuring - Travis Rice, Mark McMorris, Blake Moller, Billy Pelchat, Zoi Sadowski-Synnott, Yuki Kadono, Circe Wallace and Liam Griffin. Hosted by Jody Wachniak and Darrah Reid Mclean A heavy mix of legends and next up riders. These conversations went down in Revelstoke, right in between qualifiers and finals… so yeah, it's a bit raw and there's some background noise. I debated not using it but the conversations were too good to leave on the table. Appreciate you tuning in, this one's got some real gems in it. Enjoy.  Presented by Monster Engery Supported by Gibbons Whistler, Arc'teryx, The Source, Vans, Baldface Lodge Thumbnail Photo - Rob Lemay

Lizzie Armanto joins us in the studio for Chapter 391 of Gypsy Tales. Lizzie is one of the most influential skateboarders of her generation, helping pave the way for women in skateboarding while building an incredible career of her own. From filming iconic parts with Thrasher Magazine and landing the cover of Thrasher, to turning pro with Birdhouse Skateboards, working alongside Tony Hawk, and creating her signature shoe with Vans, Lizzie has helped change what's possible for women in skateboarding. She's even been featured in Vogue, showing how far skate culture has reached beyond the streets. In this Chapter, Lizzie talks about her journey through skateboarding, the evolution of women's skateboarding, launching YEPA helmets with Tony Hawk, and what it really takes to build a career in skateboarding.Gypsy Gang enjoy this chapter and remember to like and subscribe so you never miss a new drop!-00:00:00 Intro 00:02:31 What drew Lizzie Armanto to Skate Boarding 00:13:31 Loving the Process of Skating and Learning New Tricks 00:17:35 The Artistry of Lizzie's Skating 00:24:59 The First Tricks Lizzie Mastered 00:30:49 Lizzies Late Start in Skating 00:37:39 What the World Has Exposed Us To 00:41:47 Finding the Positives in Life 00:49:46 Fist Handwear Ad 00:51:11 The Biggest Injury of Lizzie's Career 01:04:56 How Important Visualization Is to Action Sports Athletes 01:12:35 Finding the Positive in the Hardest Moments 01:15:41 Lizzie Armonto on Skating in the Olympics 01:24:13 Being a Girl Growing up in Skate Culture 01:29:47 Lizzies Parents Influence on Her Life 01:43:47 Dixxon Flannel Ad 01:49:11 The love of Competition 01:54:04 Traveling the World Skating 02:00:14 When Skating Become Lizzies Career! 02:09:16 Lizzie Armonto Fire 02:18:29 Lizzie turns Pro 02:26:08 Becoming a Monster Athlete 02:31:05 Moving Across California 02:33:06 Grateful to be Skating 02:39:27 Vans The Lizzie 02:51:25 Cash App Ad 02:59:33 Lizzies Best Years are Ahead 03:08:02 LA Home Remodel - Domino Lizzie Armonto 03:16:31 YEPA - Lizzie Armonto and Tony Hawks Brand 03:26:59 Thank you Lizzie Armonto -Monster Energy

From summer 2027, current combustion-engine Golf production shifts to Mexico, freeing Wolfsburg to retool for the ID Golf and an electric VW T-Roc successor.STELLANTIS CUTS ELECTRIC VAN PRICES TO DIESEL LEVELStellantis Pro One is running a European campaign until end of June that matches the purchase price of eight battery-electric vans to their diesel equivalents across compact and mid-size segments. The offer directly closes gaps such as the €7,150 difference between the Opel Combo Cargo Electric and its diesel counterpart, testing whether price parity alone will push fleets to commit.TESLA EYES 400-STALL SUPERCHARGER SITE IN YERMOTesla is planning a 400-stall V4 Supercharger station in Yermo, California on Interstate 15 between Los Angeles and Las Vegas, which would more than double the current record of 164 stalls. The site would be built in six phases as part of a wider retail hub called Eddie World 2, with Phase 1 delivering 72 stalls breaking ground in 2026.UBER BACKS POD HOME CHARGING SUBSCRIPTION FOR DRIVERSUber has partnered with Pod in the UK to offer drivers a home EV charger subscription for £25 per month over three years, with no upfront cost, a lifetime warranty, and potential cash rewards of up to £170 a year through smart charging. The offer arrives as Uber expands its Uber Electric category to eight new UK cities including Birmingham, Manchester, and Leeds.BYD SURGES IN GERMANY AND UKBYD registrations surged 1,550% year-on-year in Germany in February to 3,053 vehicles, while also rising 83% in the UK to 2,154 units and tripling in Spain to 3,003 registrations. The gains come as BYD ramps up its first European plant in Hungary, built partly to sidestep EU tariffs on Chinese-imported EVs imposed in October 2024.NIO SHIFTS EUROPE TO DISTRIBUTORSNio is overhauling its European operations by switching from direct sales to a distributor-led model in Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden, while retaining direct sales only in Norway. The restructure, moving from a country-led to a function-led organisation, has already seen Nio Germany general manager David Sultzer step down.MILENCE OPENS 400 KW TRUCK CHARGING HUB IN GHENTMilence, backed by Volvo Group, Daimler Truck, and Traton, has opened a 400 kW HGV charging hub at the Volvo Trucks plant in Ghent, its fourth Belgian site, positioned on the TEN-T North Sea–Mediterranean freight corridor. A second phase will add Megawatt Charging System infrastructure, targeting charge times of 30 to 45 minutes for large HGV batteries.UK ADDED TO EU PLANS FOR EV PRODUCTION LIMITSThe European Commission's Industrial Accelerator Act (IAA) will open EU manufacturing subsidies to up to 40 "trusted partner" nations including the UK and Japan, following lobbying by UK business secretary Peter Kyle after fears that Nissan's Sunderland plant could close under earlier exclusionary proposals. The IAA also targets lifting manufacturing's share of EU GDP from 14.3% to 20% by 2035, though US firms are expected to be excluded due to American public procurement restrictions.ETHIOPIA'S EV IMPORT SHARE JUMPS AFTER ICE BANAfter Ethiopia banned ICE vehicle imports in 2024 and cut EV import duties, EVs rose from under 1% to around 6% of all vehicle imports, surpassing the reported global average of roughly 4%. The government is driving electrification as energy sovereignty, aided by low electricity costs of around $0.10 per kWh and a tiered tariff structure that exempts domestically assembled EV kits from import tax entirely.ORBÁN'S BATTERY BET HITS A DOWNTURNHungary has attracted approximately €26 billion in foreign EV battery investment, mainly from South Korean and Chinese manufacturers, but battery output has fallen during a prolonged sector downturn weeks before the April 12 national election. The strategy faces additional political pressure after a news investigation into health and safety violations at Samsung SDI's factory undermined the narrative around foreign-capital-led industrialisation.QUEENSLAND PUSHES UNDER-16 BAN FOR E-MOBILITYA Queensland parliamentary inquiry has tabled 28 recommendations including a ban on under-16s riding e-bikes and personal mobility devices, prompted by 12 e-mobility deaths and over 6,300 emergency department presentations in the state last year. Key proposals also include requiring at least a learner car licence to ride, cutting footpath speed limits to 10 km/h, and reclassifying any device capable of exceeding 25 km/h as a motorcycle.

Paris Chong sits down with her good friend, the multi-talented Ray Barbee, to discuss his new book, “The Joy is Capturing the Journey.” Ray, renowned for his legendary career as a professional skateboarder and a gifted photographer, explains how the book's title reflects his passion for documenting his blessed life and the sheer fun he finds in the process, from shooting to printing in the darkroom. The conversation also touches on his enduring career in skateboarding, including his long-standing sponsorships with brands like Vans and Crooked Skateboards, and a look back at his most significant skateboarding injury—a broken scaphoid bone that kept his wrist in a cast for nine months.Ray shares details about his family and musical roots, noting that his two sons are both skateboarders, with Max recently earning a full-ride football scholarship. He recalls growing up with jazz and soul music in the house, thanks to his parents, but notes that MTV introduced him to rock and roll, sparking his desire to play guitar. He shares a charming story of performing an air-broom guitar solo to AC/DC's "For Those About to Rock" at a fifth-grade talent show. This early passion for music, combined with a fortuitous gift of an old-school skateboard, laid the foundation for his professional life.The discussion highlights the beautiful connection between Ray's skateboarding and photography styles, describing both as an improvisational act of "documenting moments" and "being surprised by something and hitting it... in the moment." An accomplished musician as well, Ray discusses how technology allows him to be a "one-man band" using a pedal to turn his guitar into a bass. Wrapping up, he mentions his newly released EP, “Little Postcard,” and his upcoming plans to support both the book and the album with a photo exhibition and performance at the Moments Festival in Spain. Ray attributes his famously cheerful demeanor to his faith, quoting the proverb, "A happy heart makes the face cheerful," and expressing deep gratitude for his journey.Show Notes:www.theparischongshow.com/episodes/ray-barbee-on-skateboarding-photography-and-a-life-of-gratitudeChapters:00:00 Intro00:34 Meet Ray Barbie: Skateboarder and Photographer00:46 Ray Barbie's New Book02:33 The Joy of Skateboarding05:16 Family and Parenting08:08 Growing Up with Music18:48 Discovering Skateboarding24:43 From Skateboarding to Street Photography25:50 The Parallels Between Music and Photography26:17 Skateboarding and Rhythm26:59 Desiree and Photography27:36 Transitioning to Podcasts30:37 Faith and Spirituality38:29 Seeking Truth and Finding Peace48:44 Upcoming Projects and Travels51:19 Conclusion and Farewell

Ned Lampert is an unpretentious dude with a bag of big ideas. As the founder of Zero Ambition, a creative and strategy studio that works with Nike, Vans, Whole Foods, and a roster of other AAA brands, his job is to come up with culture-shifting campaigns that make customers laugh, cry, and do a little shimmy. Ned is also an avid fly fisherman, mountain bike rider, and backcountry skier. In this episode, we talked about how Ned got into advertising through the unlikely path of DJing parties, why that led him to New York, and where he finds inspiration today. (Spoiler: at the top of the Alpine mountains.) Oh, Ned is also behind Slick's For All, one of the fastest-growing intimacy brands redefining the category. He does so much, the bastard.

Today, we're talking with Dave Lee, the creative engineer and co-creator of Cardboard Sessions, the viral series where paper becomes possibility. In each episode, top-tier artists step into the studio to create unrehearsed sonic magic using fully playable instruments made entirely out of cardboard.Dave on YouTube @cardboardsessions on Instagram From cardboard Stratocasters and Telecasters to full drum kits, Dave and his team turn imagination into reality, documenting the process in stunning behind-the-scenes videos that blend art, science, and pure creative courage.The Spark of Cardboard ChaosDave, where did this idea begin—what first made you look at cardboard and think, “let's make a snowboard, a guitar, or a pair of Vans out of this”? What was the creative leap from Cardboard Chaos to Cardboard Sessions?Engineering Meets ArtYou've built fully playable instruments out of cardboard—something that sounds impossible until people see and hear it. If you've ever looked at an everyday object and thought, ‘What if we made this out of cardboard?'—Dave's probably already done it. Your creative journey—from Cardboard Chaos experiments to collaborations with icons like Tony Hawk, Marcus King, and Keanu Reeves—proves that true innovation often starts with the simplest materials and the boldest questions. I was watching the Cardboard Session with Peter Yorn -- How do you and your team balance the technical precision of engineering with the spontaneity of creative experimentation?The Magic of Unrehearsed MusicEach Cardboard Session is unrehearsed, unfiltered, and full of creative risk. What do you think happens to artists when the normal studio structure disappears and they're just responding to the moment—with instruments made of paper?Collaboration and Creative FlowYou've brought in everyone from ZZ Top to Marcus King to Keanu Reeves. What have you learned about collaboration from these sessions—and how do you create an environment that invites trust, play, and genuine creativity?The Lesson for Creatives EverywhereYour work embodies the idea that creativity thrives on limits and curiosity. What's your advice for listeners who want to tap into that “build it anyway” mindset—especially when they're facing doubt or resistance?What's one takeaway you hope creators remember from your work—about staying inventive, curious, and hands-on in a digital world?Thanks to our sponsor, White Cloud Coffee—fueling creative conversations everywhere.
