Stay Positive. Stay Productive. Chase your Dreams.


Today on the show we interview Scott Lost. Scott is a pro wrestler turn comic book artist. Scott takes us through how he was able to successfully launch his comic book series The 2nd Shift on Kickstarter. The Second Shift  is unlike any other hero themed comic books. The story is about young super heroes who are normal people with typical jobs. All four are livng in a one bedroom apartment with an ’88 Toyota van to fight crime. But before all that hype, Scott Lost went to LA to train for UPW, where John Cena came from. He worked for the indie company called Pro-Wrestling Guerrilla for 8 years. He decided to retire when he noticed his body started breaking down and rekindled his passion of drawing comic books.
