Episode Synopsis "Celebrate Your Influences"

When you find things you genuinely enjoy, don’t let anyone else make you feel bad about it. Don’t feel guilty about the pleasure you take in the things you enjoy. Celebrate them. When you share your taste and your influences, have the guts to own all of it. Don’t give in to the pressure to self-edit too much. Don’t be the lame guys at the record store arguing over who’s the more “authentic” punk rock band. Don’t try to be hip or cool. Being open and honest about what you like is the best way to connect with people who like those things, too.Show Your Work! by Austin Kleon (Loc. 351)For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep insideThat it ain’t no sin to be glad you’re aliveI wanna find one face that ain’t looking through meI wanna find one place, I wanna spit in the face of theseBadlands - Darkness on the Edge of Town (1978) - Bruce SpringsteenKick this week off right with an awesome day today!Andy This is a public episode.
