Episode 29: Show Notes.

Today's installment of NorCal and Shill is something extra special: it's my first in-person interview! And I'm sitting down with the fantastic Matt Scobel, an adventure photographer and filmmaker based in Canmore, Alberta. In this conversation, you'll hear about his journey to finally realizing he is an artist and some great stories from the hugely varied list of jobs he's taken along the way! We discuss the best advice that he ever got, which his father handed down to him, and how this feeds into his thoughts and concerns for being a creative in an environment like this. From trading to Yetis, from smart contracts to thought experiments on what would happen if we were all anonymous, this episode covers it all. Tune in now to hear Matt's highly motivational advice for new (and current) artists in the space!
