It's been over a year since the last episode of the Brown Fox Podcast came out, and a LOT has happened!

In this video, we re-introduce ourselves and talk about how Brown Fox has gotten to the moment of recording this episode.

We've had a lot of exciting growth and change and it's a chance for us to start sharing some of what we've learned over the past few years, as well as allow you to get to know the Brown Fox team a bit better!

We want to start creating more content about the power of video for businesses and brands - so it’s been a minute but we’re back with a new (shorter) podcast episode!

In this first episode back, Joseph briefly talks about the most effective way to use video for business. This is a topic that we’ll unpack in more detail in future episodes so stay tuned!

In this episode of the Brown Fox Podcast, we talk with Logan Brewster, a freelance drummer in Brisbane who has played with incredible musicians such as Adam Brand! He has also played with popular corporate and wedding acts in the region including Baker Boys Band, Redtie Entertainment and many others.

We both come from Rockhampton and it was great to talk about Logan's journey to the big city and the story of how he has found success at the intersection of preparation and opportunity. If you've ever thought about what it takes to build a career on your existing passions and gifts, this conversation will definitely inspire you!

In this episode of the Brown Fox Podcast, we talk with Blake Randall, founder and co-owner of Inner Power Coaching in Brisbane!

In this episode of the Brown Fox Podcast, we have a chat with two talented young men - one who is less than a year out of high school, and the other who is on the verge of finishing his studies. Although Jesse and Nathan are still very young, they have both done an excellent job of developing their creative passions while balancing their school lives and commitments.

This is a great conversation as both boys have vastly different personalities and approaches and yet have already started making moves in exploring their passions at a young age! Whether you're still in school or been out for 20 years, you'll enjoy hearing their fresh perspective on this topic.

In this episode, we welcome our very first guests on the podcast! Josh Bobadilla and Jordan Pineda joined us to chat about what they've learned about the process of self-discovery in their creative ventures over the past few years. This was a really fun one to record!

Josh Bobadilla is the Creative Director of Lighthouse Baptist Church Rockhampton, and started Cloud & Fire, a Christian vocal duo with his sister Grace.

Jordan Pineda is a Freelance Musician and Producer based in Brisbane, and is also a part-time AV Technician for Rivermount College.

In this episode, Joseph and Nathan discuss the idea of turning your creative passion into a business opportunity! In this day and age, everyone with a hobby or passion project they love will at some stage be presented with the idea or thought of making money from that thing they love doing.

We discuss what that process can initially look like, some of the sacrifices and fears that can arise, and practical thoughts on how to best navigate this exciting journey!

Here is the first-ever episode of the Brown Fox Podcast!
