On this episode, Pat and Posh sit down with Daniel to hear about his upbringing growing up in Kenya, moving to the United States and acclimating to American culture, and how a car ride with his dad and brother at 15 years old sparked the belief that he can one day become a successful businessman.

For the first time ever, we are sitting down for a SECOND time with a guest who has already been on the show!

Brent Bolthouse is the CEO of Bungalow Hospitality Group and the creator of Neon Carnival.

Neon Carnival is dubbed “the official afterparty of Coachella”, although not affiliated with the festival, and is considered one of the biggest private parties in the world with Hollywood’s top celebrities such as Leonardo DiCaprio, Drake, Clint Eastwood, Justin Bieber, Rihanna, and Paris Hilton attending in the past.

This year, Neon Carnival is expanding to Stagecoach weekend as well!

Pat & Posh hung out with Brent to catch up and see what he’s been up to in the past year, what to expect from The Bungalow in the future along with some exciting announcements, what sparked the idea for Neon Carnival, and what goes into throwing such a big event.

We also hear from Brent on what he would do if he was in charge of throwing a festival (take notes, Billy McFarland!) along with what he believes is the future of nightlife.

Brent also had a ton of insights and advice to share for anyone who feels stuck and wants to follow their passion in life.

The first episode with Brent, Episode 28, was one of our biggest episodes yet and this one is EVEN BETTER so make sure to tune in!

It’s been a WHILE since the last After Hours segment but Pat & Posh are BACK with another banger!

This episode features one of our most insightful, interesting conversations yet.

We kick things off by paying homage to a local LA legend, Nipsey Hussle, who tragically passed away a couple of weeks ago. He was an instrumental part of shaping the culture of Los Angeles and went above and beyond for his community. His family and friends are in our thoughts and prayers.

We also have a deep discussion about the “reality distortion field” and the striking similarities between two of the biggest documentaries of the year, FYRE (on the Fyre Festival) and The Inventor (on Theranos and its founder, Elizabeth Holmes).

Other topics include the corruption that occurs in large organizations (the recent USC scandal as an example) and the Lyft IPO, among other upcoming tech IPOs, and what it means for the industry.

We also share some VERY exciting news…

Make sure to tune in!
