Today I'm joined by a good friend of mine, we go way back to our college days at CSUDH. Luie Carrion is an indie artist, writer, journalist, and content creator out of Long Beach, CA. We breakdown life after college. Most people find themselves lost right after college, including me. It's not all roses and rainbows once you obtain your degree. We discuss his time after college and how he grinded his way into what he thought was going to be his future career plus his time at SKEE TV, Fly Society, and Collective State TV.  With that, a culmination of disappoint, regret, accomplishment, and joy all have molded Luie into a much different artist and person. Now he lets his creativity just flow without second thought, he enjoys his spare time going to concerts and events. We break all of that down including some Niner talk, that and much more so stay locked in.

Here's what listeners can learn:
- Career Path, which way is the right way?
- Navigating Through Life After College
- Producing & Writing Music
- Income vs Outcome

Today I'm joined by Filmmaker, Musician, and Speaker Rob Holub. He takes us on his personal journey of self-discovery through his new documentary Searching For Contact. Rob has Swiss with Czech background, and speaks multiple languages including German, French, English, Czech and Spanish and has worked with a multitude of professionals from different fields: from top fashion designers like Roberto Cavalli to the father of the internet Vint Cerf. He studied media, journalism and sociology in Fribourg, Switzerland and in California, USA, and graduated bilingual with a Master of Arts degree. His studies and travels has taken him around the world, to more than 40 countries, have deeply influenced his work and his goals to help people connect with each other on a personal human level.

Documentary

"Searching for Contact" tracks a social media-obsessed musician and his quest for public recognition over the fifteen years since social media began to encourage individuals to turn themselves into private brands. Over the course of creating an album, a music video, a speaking tour, and eventually a documentary, musician Rob Holub - along with the hundreds of people he interviews in dozens of countries along the way - reflects a struggle that millions share, living in a society where the greatest currency in the world is public attention. Searching for Contact is a coming of age story for social media itself.

Here's what listeners can learn:
- Exploring Humanity 
- Navigating Through The Digital Era
- Producing A Documentary
- The Vulnerability In Communicating A Message
