  • QGPod 83 - COVID Business with Tim Cole
    Tim Cole is the former VP of Mascot Sports. The reason I emphasize former is actually the reason why we invited him to join us on the podcast once more! Throughout our COVID Business series, we’ve connected with former guests of ours to discuss how the COVID 19 pandemic has affected their businesses and livelihoods. Mascot Sports was an athletic events business, and the events industry is one of the hardest hit verticals of 2020. Events well into next year have been cancelled and postponed, and no events, means a certain demise for many events based businesses, and the boutique sporting events company could not sustain. Though Tim was sad to let go of such an exciting role, he was not discouraged. After a tiny bit of soul searching he hit the job market, and in quite a bold way! His approach on LinkedIn is a great example of how we can leverage some incredible tools, and with a bit of creativity and vulnerability, it paid off in the best possible way. I had the privilege of watching this all unfold before my eyes on LinkedIn, and it is an inspiring story that we think you all should hear.

  • QGPod 81 - Timing

    On this episode of the podcast, Anson and Chris had a brief discussion about timing. one can argue, that timing is the very thing that dictates the happenings in our lives. literally almost every aspect of our life is shaped by timing in some type of way…the job market, sports, cooking, relationships, conversations…the right or improper timing can make or break a situation. while I don’t wanna elaborate on this intro anymore than I need to, I will say this is good timing to tell you all that we really thank you for continually tuning in to the quality goods podcast. we have a blast bringing you all quality content and you can support us through continued listens, repping our march, and even donating to us through our anchor profile at anchor.fm/qgpod.

  • QGPod 80 - Artist Jorge Bejarano Abstract Oakland

    On this episode of the podcast Anson and Chris had a colorful conversation with Oakland based artist Jorge Bejarano aka Abstract Oakland. If you’ve had the privilege of taking a cruise down Broadway Downtown Oakland, you may have seen his vibrant work adorning some of the storefronts amongst the beautiful array of street art, or perhaps you got your hands on some of his recent Oakland themed Loteria Tablas. Regardless of where you have or have yet to come across his work, his eye catching cityscapes are sure to leave a lasting impression. They talked about how encouragement from an early mentor helped set him up for success in the long run, and how his development as an artist led him to putting his true self into his works. As is the case with many creative endeavors, approaching your craft from a genuine place will almost always yield the best results, and Jorge’s story is no different. Whether you’re a street art enthusiast or creative of any capacity, you’ll enjoy this conversation about art and culture in the east bay.

  • QGPod 78 - Gina & Ryan of The TVBs Podcast
    On this episode of the podcast, Anson and Chris were joined by podcast hosts Gina and Ryan the TVBs. The TV talking duo explore series and other tv related topics, doing deep dives on shows while they sip some cocktails and debate their points of view. Anson and Chris are some avid viewers ourselves, so we were more than happy to join them both in a conversation about everything TV. They explored a little tv history, some formative shows from our early years, and then new generation of shows during the streaming era. There is something for everyone in the world of television, so it was fun to explore all of our different tastes, from our top recommendations, to shows that we have no idea how they got greenly in the first place. So if you’re into tv..and let’s face it, you most likely are..you will definitely get some enjoyment, and probably even answer these questions to yourself as you listen along. at the very least you’ll get some good show recommendations out of it.

  • QGPod 77 - Writer Alfred Howard

    Alfred Howard is a writer and performer based out of San Diego California. His recent project Alfred Howard Writes is currently taking place over the course of this year, as he invites artists around the country to collaborate in song. His powerful pieces evoke emotion as he draws energy from societal struggles and complicated issues that weve been faced with lately. He shared his history as a singer and songwriter, how he nearly hung up his writing talents, and how events of recent years have reignited his passion for writing and performing. Sometimes it’s shock and trauma that bring about the most creative energies, and if they’re cultivated just right, they can be channeled into vibes that resonate across many boundaries. Check out his vibes on alfredhowardwrites.com, and you can follow the chronicles of the project that has been taking place for the ‘better’ part of this year.
