The last time you and I talked – it was 2021. Now, it's 2022. Everything is so totally different and new since then, right? No. No it isn't. And that kind of includes this weeks episode of The Road The Stage! This is Part Two of our favourite moments of TRTS in 2021. Never forget where you come from. This week we hear from The Elwins, Brandon Wolfe Scott, Zach Gray from The Zolas AND LOTS MORE. That isn't even HALF of it. But this episode IS half of our Best Of 2021. Dinner is served! As always, The Road The Stage is recorded and produced at Communal Creative Studios in Red Deer, Alberta. Subscribe to the CCS YouTube channel. That should be New Year resolution #1.

Another from the Live From My Bachelor Pad Vault, and thus originally live-streamed in April of 2020, here's my conversation with the lead singer of Vancouver-based rock band, The Zolas. We cover his love of Britpop and its inspiration on their latest record, "Come To Life". His love of Ultimate (Frisbee), Chorus/Flange effects, two cats, and the tall guy at the back of the show (himself). The Zolas Linktree The Zolas Website What was That? ★ Support this podcast ★

How long does it take to build your application? When you build your application are you rebuilding the entire universe, or are you using incremental build caching? For some applications, build times are perfectly acceptable, and there are no major complexities around building the application. For others, the build time is unacceptable, is impacting the developer experience, and perhaps most importantly, it is causing your organization money. So, what is your organization to do?There are a few organizations that manage development scale at the largest level, and one of those organizations is Google. All source code at Google is part of the google3 monolithic repository, and further, building applications can be complex. Google set out to solve this problem and built Blaze, and then released Bazel as an open-source project in 2015. In this show, we learned from Zack Gray, from Flare.build, about how Bazel is an automated tool for building and testing. Bazel is language and framework agnostic, meaning, it can be used to build and test not just TypeScript and JavaScript, but any language. Further, Bazel leverages parallelization, enabling the tool to build multiple aspects/modules of your application simultaneously. This also leads to building and testing across many machines. Finally, Bazel is smart enough to only build the artifacts that need to be re-built. This leads to incredible performance and reliability.If Blaze sounds like a potential solution for you, then this is an episode of the Angular Show that you will want to listen to. Finally, if you need help with building, running, configuring, and extending Blaze, then be sure to reach out to Zach and the team at Flare.build.Connect with us:Zach Gray - @zachgray_ioBrian F Love - @brian_loveJennifer Wadella - @likeOMGitsFEDAYAaron Frost - @aaronfrost

It’s another great Kickstarter doubleheader this week in Episode 435! We start things off with a fun conversation with Barb Kaalberg from the fascinating comic Divinity from Silverline Comics. There’s a Kickstarter underway for this debut issue, which is described this way: “Eleven year old Divinity Gray's life changes forever after the suspicious death of her parents. Marine Sgt. Zach Gray, the older brother she barely knows, becomes her guardian, but when he discovers Divinity's mysterious healing powers, their lives take a dangerous turn. With the help of a few friends, Zach and Divinity must go on the run to keep Divinity--and her powers--out of the hands of an evil cabal.” We talk about the series, why this comic shows that Barb is more than just a terrific inker, and what she has in store for us in the months ahead! We also touch on the other book included in this Kickstarter, which is Twilight Grimm #1, so be sure to support this great pairing today! Then everything concludes with my great conversation with Jonathan Hedrick from Freakshow Princess and Capable!  Jonathan has a Kickstarter happening right now to support issues #1 and #2 of Capable, so we talk about how these books were created, who the characters are, and what Jonathan has coming, including a just-announced series from Scout Comics called The Recount! Here’s how Capable is described: “Derik Davidson is just your average high school kid. He's shy, awkward, bullied, and he happens to use a wheelchair. But suddenly Derik's world turns upside down when he wakes up with the power of super speed! What will Derik do with this new power and who else has become super capable?” Be sure to support this high-power project as soon as you listen to this episode!

 "Hate" is a strong word; the word your mother told you not to use. So here I go: Jared Platt HATES to see Photographers needlessly squandering time. HATES it. Are you using your time for worst, good, better, or best? How can you work in the "best?" Jared has a word for you today! He's a wedding & lifestyle photographer himself, and he now spends a great deal of time teaching. [Hint: He's not a teacher-by-default. Listen in on his educational pedigree.] Some of the highlights of my conversation with Jared at Imaging USA 2016: The power of Photography as an artform. "We are professional liars." How is he teaching Photogs how to get their work done--faster? Why he doesn't believe that family portraits belong at a wedding. What is lifestyle photography? How is this not like traditional portrait photography? The opposite idea of "culling" photos--not rejecting the worst, but PICKING the best! Common pitfalls Photographers make. The systemic problem in our industry. "The desire for Photographers to do everything themselves is a really bad idea." -Jared Platt How can you learn more, and take advantage of the resources Jared Platt has to offer? Simple! CLICK HERE. What about the other resources he mentions? Here you go . . .

One of the best ways to differentiate yourself in your market is by mastering off-camera flash. It sets your work apart from your competition and allows you to charge premium prices.

In this episode of the SFP podcast, we'll be discussing how to actually go about learning off-camera flash as well as a ton of other valuable advice from one of the best wedding photographers in the world. What You'll Learn Why it's not enough to be a natural light photographer How to set up off-camera lighting in a time crunch (i.e receptions) What the "experience" based economy is The "marketing machine" Zach uses to get clients The #1 piece of gear Zach thinks is undervalued The lighting system that gets him world class results   Want to learn all of Zach and Jody’s behind the scenes tricks to nail your flash shots with ease?

By most common benchmarks, Zach Gray shouldn't be a success. If you're dreaming of a successful photography career, and you've amassed a list of "Why I can't" excuses, today's conversation will be inspiring, humbling, or just plain irritating. Zach Gray and his wife, Jody, have carved out an enviable spot in the world of wedding photographers. Among portrait Photographers, they're also highly-respected business mentors. Zach Gray of Zach & Jody Photography walks us through his journey from 3rd grade education, to earning his GED, to 22 year-old tie salesman, to broke musician. Today, he and his wife Jody are renowned wedding Photographers, and business mentors to other Photographers. The "secret sauce" that changed everything for Zach Gray? The power of belief. In 2008, at the onset of the economic crash, Jody quit her day job, committing herself to their new brand. Their goal? [su_quote cite="Zach Gray"]In 5 years, we wanted to have clients that loved us, and we wanted to be making a 6-figure NET income. Click to tweet.[/su_quote] They DRAMATICALLY missed their 5-year plan. What else can you expect from today's conversation? Like a true professional, Bill immediately insults his guest. Hear Zach's opinion of the 2 most common mistakes that Photographers make. Discover the most rewarding moment of Zach & Jody's photographic career (HINT: it doesn't include a camera).
