For at least the last 12 years I have been following the writing/cartooning of Hugh Macleod. Hugh is the only business card artist I have ever known and he has transferred his skill into several industries to date.

Gapingvoid, the blog I once looked at on a daily basis, has turned into a transformation company built around the Hughism and that is cool.

Twitter and Instagram are great places to find Hugh's work @hughcards

This is simply a great conversation that inspires and makes it pretty clear that if you stick to what you love amazing things can and do happen.

For the last 3 or so years, I have been talking to Saffron Collins about her music every 8 months or so.

Saffron is a fantastic young singer/songwriter who has such an authentic outlook on music and more. Saffron's new song Mascara is all over the internet and possibly her best work yet, and there is a video she shot and edited to go with it. 66,430 views of the video when we uploaded the podcast. Give this conversation a listen it is 25 minutes well spent.

@saffroncollinsmusic is how you can find Saffron online.

Jonathan Richards is the director of digital strategy at the Gulf News Group and he was at CreativeMornings talking about the beauty of chaos.

The August theme of CreativeMornings was COMMUNITY and Narmeen Naser the inventor of JiggyDubai joined us to talk about her relationship with a community.

This is a great show with Marcus from Innerfight from 2014.

Gold is what this show is full of.

The Motoring Middle East guys are in true form and this is a great throwback show!

Paul Kelly, then from Triplew.ME, talk about some great bands and spin some great tunes. This show was originally heard on dubaieye1038.com.

Yes this is the LAST Nightline show on DubaiEye BUT the show will live on, here, in podcast form. All of the cast and crew and some new shows are going to add to the mix bringing you a curious mix of education, entertainment and information from Dubai to the world. We are on vacation for a month and then we are back. Buckle up this is a ride!

Here it is a listen to the early days of Nightline. A lot has changed over the 11 years of the program but one thing stayed the same. I always set out to bring you programming, conversation, and ideas that I wanted to hear myself and that I believed helped build our community and make it a more informed place. Nightline signs off June 20, 2018 being able to say that it has done what it set out to do.

While Nightline is closed the JamesCast is open and great ideas, conversation and more will continue to be shared here. [email protected]
