What a year it has been! Sadly we were without our biggest rock, Chase, for this ep. He thought visiting his fam for the holidays is more important than our pod. We see where his priorities lie… Anyways, Brayden and Kostas put the team on their back ONCE AGAIN and bring you guys an absolute BANGER of a pod. We take a look back and reflect on how our 2021 was, and share some goals we both have set for ourselves that we plan to crush in the new year!

Ladies and gentlemen welcome back to another episode of The 505 Podcast!

We thought it'd be fun to take a trip down memory lane for this episode. We start by taking it all the way back to the beginning - Good ole Myspace. So much has changed since then, and a ton of new platforms have emerged throughout the years. We're curious, what's your favorite Social Media to use?

Ladies and gentlemen welcome back to another episode of The 505 Podcast!

Boy do we wish we had this episode to listen to when we were younger. There are so many things we wish we could have told ourselves 10 years ago, and hindsight is always 20/20. On this episode, we take turns talking about advice we could have given our younger selves, as well as give ourselves props for a few things we're glad we did. This was a fun one to film, so we hope you enjoy it!

What's up Rock Nation, we welcome back our second ever reoccurring guest, JT Barnett! Since being on the show last, JT has made some changes with his company CreatorX. They have transitioned into pairing creators with brands, who are now paying full time salaries to bring creators in house. We discuss what brands are looking for in creators, and it takes for a creator to be hired by these brands. He's also tripling down on content, and specifically YouTube, and feels as though lower production paired with speed and volume, are his X factor.

We dive into what the theory is and how to garner a true fan.

Today we welcome one of my talented creators out there, Nainoa Langer. Nainoa has been at this for a long time, and was at the forefront of the travel video space at a young age, when he was working with Beautiful Destinations. After a few years traveling the world with them, he decided to switch things up and dive into the music scene, where he linked up and started shooting for Illenium. He's been touring for a while, but focusing a lot of his efforts on getting his voice back and creating his own work again.

Jakob Owens is a talented filmmaker from Arizona, who has spent the last decade focused on creating amazing videos and building businesses within the filmmaking space. With Tropic Colour and Prism Lens FX, he's tackled both digital assets and physical products. It's rare you get a chance to tap into the mind of someone who has built multiple seven figure businesses, so this episode is a special one for us!

Welcome back to Episode 98 of The 505 Podcast. Today we welcome Brendon Hayward. Brendon is an ex pro skater, who has a deep desire for travel and adventure. After tearing his ACL twice, and retiring from pro skateboarding, he wasn't sure what life had in store for him. We dive into the "ah-ha" moment Brendon had that gave him the clarity he was searching for to pursue his passions, and turn it into his career. After seven years of planning, he just pulled off one of his craziest stunts yet! In Brazil, he took a halfpipe 8,000 feet in the air via hot air balloon and skated it! This episode is jam packed with adventure.

Check out Brendon Here!

Roc Nation, today we welcome Alex Subers. Alex spent 5 years shooting for the Philadelphia 76ers, and recently transitioned into shooting and strategizing content for Fanatics. Alex recently had the opportunity to shoot his second SLAM Magazine cover for Tyrese Maxey, the first one being for James Harden. Due to the nature of his job, Alex is around a lot of high profile athletes and celebrities, so we discuss how to navigate those situations. We've been wanting to have Alex on for a while, so we are stoked to finally have made it happen!

Roc Nation, today we welcome an unbelievably talented filmmaker and director, Mitchell Mullins. He's man of many talents, he knows how to fly drones real well, how to shoot and edit with the best of them, and even rocks a mullet. We talked to Mitchell about transitioning from being on the road for 300 days creating travel content, to filming and directing incredible commercial work. Mitchel also just put out his first physical product, a premium notebook. This was one of our favorite convos to date!

What's up Rock Nation! Today we welcome an absolute gaming GOAT, Nadeshot! Nadeshot went from pro gamer, to building one of the largest esports brands in the world with 100 Thieves. In this episode, we talk about everything from going from what the early days of pro gaming were like, his recent 1v1 vs. Banks and what that meant for the gaming community, doing over $1.5 million in sales in an hour with 100 Thieves apparel, and what the future holds for himself and 100 Thieves.
