  • Episode #13 - No Cheat Codes, No In-Betweens w/ Etai Drori

    For the Finale of #SeasonOne we're lucky enough to get a guest that we'd spoken a lot about during the season. To us he was the #whitewhale and there were times where it looked like it wasn’t going to happen. But, we pull it out and here it is. The perfect culmination to an epic first season. @Etai.la is an amazing artist,designer & Creative Director. What he does with #highfashion materials is unbelievable and never before seen. He’s definitely the next in line if he ever wants to venture down that path, but it sound like he has bigger fish to fry in this episode. Etai give us the run down on his upbringing. We talk childhood, and how art was his peace. To cutting all the lines at @supremenewyork and @diamondsupply, learning how to finesse the reseller game before the reseller game. He tells us about his initial love for painting and customizing shoes and how that eventually lead him into the the world he is in today. Where celebrities like @lizzobeeating @billieeilish @torylanez are reaching out for custom pieces or at very least a signature lighter. This cat is way ahead of his time. He’s an old soul, in a young body. And it's extremely inspiring to hear his journey. This guys work ethic is none other. He is pushing the boundaries and that's only what we’ve seen... Believe us, he still has plenty under his sleeve. From crazy trips to #Japan to remembering his days getting tatted by @normloveletters He covers it all. It's the best episode yet. Subscribe, Rate, Comment… we see them and they really help. We can’t thank everyone enough. From all the assistance to support we greatly appreciate you guys. Season Two isn’t far away and we have some things in place to keep you entertained in-between. So stay tuned on instagram for all our coming announcements, Stay Safe, Stay Healthy. Much Love BADNWZ Army
