Aaron and Michael talk about the previous week's sessions at the studio, and how grateful we are to be included and trusted as collaborators with people that we both love and are inspired by.  Enjoy!!

The dreaded burnout!  It's seems inevitable for the creative person, but it's how we manage our time, mind and our bodies that can help us get back on the horse faster or keep us going longer.  Aaron and Michael explore this question from their friend Brian Bender and muse on their own experiences.  

Folks!  We have an instagram account now.  @15minutesofpod. Go hit us up on IG and let us know what you're up to.  

Today, Aaron wants to know why we're doing what we do.  He also gives us insight as to his why.

Enjoy!

Geez, thanks for holding out.  We muse on the greatest drummers of all time, and being inspired by the things we've recently seen in the wild.  New music alert from Head of Fame, Beau Jennings and the Tigers and lots of things to come from Mr. Newberry this fall.  

Thanks again for all the love, it keeps us going on all sorts of levels.

Our communities need lots of support from each other, so Aaron just want to remind us all to check in with each other.  Remember kids, don't let the man keep you down!

Arron asks is it better to fail or to not try at all?  Come see how it wraps up.

How did you find your artistic voice, or are you still searching?

This is a fun one!  We throw our first ever guest, Santiago Ramones (of the famed podcast Bit Depth), into our little charade to see what he thinks.

We're both very grateful to Santiago for doing this with us.  He was the first person Michael knew with a podcast, and Michael was lucky to be on one in the early days of his show.  Santiago was also the first person to compliment us on our little show after the second episode.  Go check his podcast out and give it some love.

What freakin' process?  Aaron and Michael talk about why we believe there are certain merits to having a process and why you should also just go out there and do it to find your own.  Also, if you're enjoying our podcast, please share and/or rate it.  It helps us out a bunch.  If you're in the giving mood, you can always support us at:

Be curious, not judgmental.

-Ted Lasso

Aaron is curious about the future of internet collaboration, how many of you do this?  We would love to hear how you use it!

Aaron is afraid of robots, this and more on this weeks podcast!

Do you think the future of creation will be host to AI integration?  

Happy St. Patty's day everyone...Sorry for the lapse in episodes, we both got really busy for a bit.  

What are the tools we use, and why do we use them?  Is there room for a better tool in the arsenal?  A letter from a listener guides todays episode.  

Making decisions is hard, sometimes there are too many, sometime you forget to make them and never make anything as a result.  

Michael asks Aaron about his quick tips to get moving quickly in his writing sessions.  What sort of shortcuts and workflow get you moving?  

Do you doubt yourself and your output?  Why do we do this, and why we need to stop.  

What is a producer?  There are so many ways to think about it, and honestly there is no real answer other than a facilitator.

Bon appetit! 

How do you value your time?  Does the way you make records value you?  The way you think about your time, and the cost/benefit of record making can go a lot of ways, here is our interpretation of that argument.  

A friend asks us when, or if, procrastination is a good thing in regards to creative output.  Also, what's Rics Flair's surname anyway?

What do you need to know to know that you can do the job well?  What makes certain people shine when they work?  Aaron is curious about the tools that make a great artist who she is.  

What to expect when you're expecting...or rather what is an expectation for a creative process?  Aaron and Michael talk about the similarity of expectation and creativity.

How do you make space for being a creative person?  Aaron and Michael muse about the idea of how to be creative, and how lucky we are to experience it with our friends and peers. 

In the hustle, bustle and brevity of the first episode there are things that we still needed to cover and clear up.  Enjoy!
