When it comes to creativity, inspiration is often taken from the works of others. But where do we draw the line between influence and outright copying? Join us on this thought-provoking episode as we ponder the age-old debate: When do imitation and homage become stealing? From comic book artists like Todd McFarlane and Rob Liefeld, to filmmakers such as Brian De Palma and Quentin Tarantino, to musicians like Beyoncé and Pharrell, our conversation navigates the gray areas where creativity intersects with ethics. Was Picasso right when he said, "Good artists copy. Great artists steal?" Is imitation truly the sincerest form of flattery, or does it cross the boundaries of artistic integrity?
