EP 58: 360 Opens Up About The Guilt & Shame He Carriesā¦
Season 1 Ā· Episode 58
Monday, March 10, 2025 ā¢ Duration 01:24:59
Welcome to episode 58 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin.
Today I sit down with 360, one of Australiaās biggest rappers. If you were into Aussie hip-hop in the early 2010s, you definitely knew his name. His album Falling & Flying blew up, and for a while, he was at the top of the game. But behind the success, things were falling apart.
360 has spoken before about his addiction to codeine, which got so bad he was taking up to 90 pills a day. It nearly killed him. In this chat, we go deepānot just into his rise and fall, but into the guilt and shame he still carries.Ā
His parents think they failed him, but he insists they did nothing wrong. At one point, he completely broke down, sharing just how heavy it all still feels.
This is one of the rawest episodes Iāve ever recorded. Itās about addiction, family, regret, the rise and fall of oneās career, the impact fame has on you, social media challenges and so, so, so, much more.
Enjoy!

EP 57: Business Is Lifeās Most Spiritual Journeyā¦ | Brad McDonnell
Season 1 Ā· Episode 57
Monday, March 3, 2025 ā¢ Duration 01:27:39
Welcome to episode 57 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!
In this episode, I sit down with my good mate Brad McDonnell, co-founder of Manna Vitality, to dive deep into lifeās biggest questions.Ā
What does it truly mean to be here? Why do we exist?Ā
We unpack different ideologies, perspectives, and personal experiences around these questionsāthis one goes deep.
One of the things that makes Brad unique is how he balances business and spiritualityātwo things that most people struggle to integrate. Usually, itās one or the other, but Brad has managed to build a thriving business while staying grounded in his spiritual practices.Ā
We get into how he found that balance, the challenges along the way, and what keeps him aligned in both areas.
This conversation was raw, deep, and eye-opening. Whether you're someone chasing success, looking for more meaning in life, or just curious about different ways of thinking, this episode will leave you questioning everything (in the best way possible).

EP 54: A Phone Call That Made Kanye West & Bianca Censori $19 million In A Day | Noah Hunter Dorsey
Season 1 Ā· Episode 54
Monday, February 10, 2025 ā¢ Duration 01:21:08
Welcome to episode 54 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!
Noah Hunter Dorsey steps into the podcast world for the first time, and heās not holding back. This is one of those stories that makes you rethink whatās possible.
Noah isnāt just a guy with multiple 7-figure businessesāheās someone whoās lived a lot of life. Before the success, before the crazy marketing wins, he hit rock bottom. No money. No direction, in a city he didnāt like, wondering what the hell was next.
In a last-ditch effort to figure himself out, he packed a bag and took off on a two-month, soul-searching journey to India. No business plans. No clear path. Just a deep dive into self-discovery. That trip changed everything. When he got back to Melbourne, he went all in on building his own businesses. Hustling, failing, learningāuntil one day, the universe decided to throw him a lifeline in the wildest way possible.
Out of nowhere, his phone rings. On the other end? Bianca Censori. Kanye Westās wife. And sheās got a proposition: handle the marketing for Yeezy.
Noah takes it on and completely flips the script. He scales sales from $40K a day to a jaw-dropping $19 million in a single dayāthanks to a perfectly executed Super Bowl ad. From sleeping on the floor to pulling in numbers most people canāt even dream of.
This was a good one! I canāt wait for you to tune in.
