Joe Rogan is an odd beast. Hated by some. Loved, apparently, by millions that listen to every episode of his show. I actually don't care what you think of him, but you can learn some things. I have nine things that you can steal from him. --------------------------------------------------- Support the podcast and join the community at https://creat…

022 - Attack on Titan (AoT): First Episode Brilliance (2024-01-31) 38:57

38:57

There is nothing quite like the first episode of a series to set things in motion. When I saw the first episode of Attack On Titan, I realized just how powerful an opening episode could be. When I saw the LAST episode, I realized that the first episodes are even more important than I thought. --------------------------------------------------- Supp…

021 - The Marvels No One Cared For 33:25

1+ y ago33:25

33:25

Disclaimer: I actually liked The Marvels. But I realized something as I listened to people talk about it: No one cared. 😕 While you might be thinking "Well I cared!", that's not good enough for a movie on this scale. One of the jobs of a creative is to make something that people care about. That person can be just you, but most often, it's hoped th…

51:09

Pro wrestling is real. Don’t argue with me. If you don’t know that I’m getting at something, then you probably don’t need to be listening to my podcast. It's all a creative act.

015 - The Creativity of Marvel's Echo (2024-01-18) 36:13

1+ y ago36:13

36:13

Marvel’s Echo is in an interesting position where it needs to create a satisfactory re-introduction to the more grounded “Netflix Marvel” shows that it will apparently be building off of in the future. At only five episodes, and with a largely unheard of character, did it do it’s job? -- Short answer. I think it did. -------------------------------…

014 - Trash Your Goals? Why? When? How? 45:19

1+ y ago45:19

45:19

We've been thinking about goals in a very inappropriate way. First of all, we think that goals are resolutions. And then we think that we have to follow them to the letter and not adjust as we go about our path. If something truly isn't working, trash it. --------------------------------------------------- Support the podcast and join the community…

Journaling is so powerful that it shamed me into being a better person. I had journaling on my mind this New Years, but when I decided to look back to hear from my past self? I was shocked.

010 - SMART Goals are Stupid (2024-01-11) 56:33

1+ y ago56:33

56:33

SMART Goals are often…dumb. They don’t apply to a lot of cases, and frustrate a lot of creative types. In case you’ve forgotten, here’s how they’re structured. S - Specific, M - Measurable, A - Actionable, R - Realistic, T - Timely The problems come from the fact that these criteria came from corporate logic and don't often apply to individuals. Si…

1+ y ago55:45

55:45

I don't feel I explained this well, but the mindset we have around delaying gratification is problematic. It seems like it would make sense, but isn't often your best choice. Denying your drive without being okay with the moment can cause you resent your waking moments and keep chasing waterfalls. You can keep doing the exact same work with a much …
