I had a great time talking to

Aarron Walter

&

Eli Woolery
about the creative process on the latest episode of
Design Better
— I’ve now checked off one of my lifelong goals of being on the same podcast as David Sedaris & Seth Godin. I’ve hit Peak Podcast! It’s all downhill from here.

Listen to the Episode Here

In this series, Eli and Aarron are going beyond the confines of design to speak with some of the world's most creative people to learn how they approach collaboration, generate innovative ideas, and overcome creative obstacles.

They’ve interviewed guests like author David Sedaris, Ed Catmull, co-founder of Pixar and Autumn Durald Arkapaw, cinematographer for Loki & Wakanda Forever, and OK GO, one of the most creative bands in the world right now, along with many more creative minds.

I’ve linked to some of their other episodes below. Take a listen!

Not many bands hire Russian pilots to film a Zero-G video on their cosmonaut training plane, known as the “vomit comet”. But those are the kinds of extremes that OK Go will go to in the pursuit of creativity…
