On this episode of the podcast, Anson and I were joined by Austin based musician and business coach Bill Small. Bill is a multi-talented recording artist and performer that has recorded a handful of solo albums, in addition to a slew of singles, and live performances with a number of bands and other collaborators. After finding success over the years as both a recording and performing artist, Bill decided to branch out and start offering up his experience and serve as a business coach. We touched on things like artist development, the chemistry of a band, and what success as an artist means. We also touched on some of more cerebral side of things like connection, cutting through the bs, and more complex ideas like feeling your vision. It was a great conversation about music, business, and life.

Anthony Renowitzky is a real estate agent turned investor, that has spent the last few years steady building up his portfolio of properties. We first spoke with Anthony early in 2020, when the real estate market was ripe with uncertainty. Things have changed quite a bit since then, from dynamic interest rates to rent moratoriums, there has been all kinds of movement in properties and prices. Our discussion touched on the post pandemic economy, flipping houses, leveraging the brrrr method, and more. It was a great discussion about everything real estate.

Anson and Chris have a discussion about a subject that is near and dear to their hearts..and their stomachs..FOOD. With the super bowl freshly behind us, they talked about the culture around gathering and snacking, and some of their favorite game day treats. They got into the importance and the influence of social media in food culture, some popular Instagram and Tik Tok posting styles, and not deviating from a winning recipe. They also gave a shout to some of our favorite local joints and some food trends that are on our radar right now.

On this episode of the podcast, Anson and Chris got to connect with owner and pit master of Ruby Q Smokefusion, Ruben McElligot. As the man behind the smoke, Ruben puts out some of the best fusion BBQ that can be found in the Bay Area. From brisket tacos, to vegan sweet potato and black bean quesadillas, he has taken some tried and true family recipes and injected some of his own modern technique to bring some major flavor to Oakland. Though Ruben is known around the community for his tasty faire, he hadn’t always planned to slang his smokey delights. We talked about seizing opportunities, and putting in reps, because you never know what future endeavors you may be preparing for. We got into the importance of being instilled with a strong work ethic at an early age, recipes that stand the test of time, and bringing tradition from around the country right here to the east bay. It was a great conversation about bbq and entrepreneurship for sure. So whether you live life in the fast lane, or dig things low and slow, you’ll dig this conversation about good food, and good business.   Follow Ruby Q: https://rubyqsmokefusion.com/@Ruby_Q_Smokefusion  Episode brought to you by: Mikal Monroe Clothing https://www.mikalmonroe.com/

What's up good people! Thank you all so much for rocking with us for yet another year. It was different, it was new territory, but we navigated these murky waters together, and we could not do it without you all. We appreciate your continued support, and we look forward to bringing younew content featuring some quality folks in the new year. Till then, WE OUT!

What is good quality listeners?! We are back after a short break from putting out new content. It wasn’t to punish you all, but merely to chill the fuck out for a minute, focus on life, and spend a tiny bit less time in front of a screen for a couple months. But we missed you, and just couldn’t keep away for too long, so we thought it only right to say what up and spread some year end holiday cheer. What better subject to cover then breaks? No we’re not talking about break beats or broken bones…but rather the fact that it is ok to take a break once in a while. Entrepreneurship is a common thread in our content, and we have been so conditioned to be on grind mode 24/7, grow a following with constant posting and engagement, trying to build that highlight real for clout, we often forget to take a moment to stop and breathe! While there are appropriate times to flex on grind mode, there is much more to life then work work work. We also touched on the anti-work movement going on, some of the wild ass crime that has arisen around us due to the involuntary extended break that many are experiencing, and then we wrapped up the convo with a discussion about gratitude and some things that we are thankful for. so check out this conversation about breaks and thanks.

What’s good quality people?! It’s been a long time, and we should not have left you, with out some great pod content to step to, drive to, lay around to…whatever it is that you do when you listen to podcasts. As we gear up to bring you some new content, we thought it an appropriate moment to release some content from the archives featuring our good friend Ekzakt. Zach Perry aka Ekzakt has been grinding it out on these coast as an engineer and producer for a decade plus, cutting tracks for the likes of Andre Nickatina, Mistah Fab, and more recently the legendary Too Short. The two were featured in a recent piece put out by Lauten Audio called Capture, and we were super proud and impressed by the quality piece about the importance of being skilled engineer in addition to your production chops. We love the representation of The Bay, and the story told in the piece is one I got the privilege of witnessing first hand, so it’s extra special in that regard. So as we continue to support quality content and quality people, we wanted to share some stories and advice from the man himself back around the inception of the pandemic.

Check out the piece:

On this episode of the podcast Anson and Chris wanted to chat about some topics that go hand in hand with each other..attention and awareness. These two subjects are not only important for success in entrepreneurial pursuits, but also for success in our personal lives and relationships. Attention might just be the most valuable commodity in the world, and companies of all sizes, from local mom and pops to corporate conglomerates are all in constant competition for it. Awareness goes hand in hand with attention, and is the first step into bringing more of it to any cause. There are many dimensions of awareness though, from simple concepts like spatial awareness, to grander ideas like environmental awareness and everything in between and outside. They discussed how attention and awareness commingle constantly, and we are sure that you all can relate to some of the situations and scenarios that we touched on. So pay close attention to this episode, and if you dig the conversation, we would be ever so grateful if you would raise awareness of it through your socials by liking out posts, sharing the episode to your stories, or going with the good old fashioned approach of sharing with your friends and fat through word of mouth. However you choose to bring attention to and support quality, we will alway be grateful!
