Once Around The Block Once Around The Block

Once Around the Block is a video series in which I walk around the block with people an film the conversation. It's about creating casual, real, and authentic content, showing our human side.

This episode is the first in the documenting of my process. It was totally off the cuff and inspired by a podcast episode by garyveeandjamesistarted Gary Vaynerchuk and James Altucher to just get your podcast started! I've been thinking about documenting the growth of @onceatb (also partly inspired by the show "Startup", a podcast by gimlet media) because I think it could be another way of providing value.

I'll outline my inspiration for the series, where it is and where I see it going, and discuss the concept of providing value as a creative, rather than imposing it. Please leave your comments and lets start a conversation.

BTW, in true Once Around the Block fashion, I have not touched/edited this content. Lets just get it started!

I was running around 14th Street (Washington, D.C.) and randomly parked in front of Barber of Hells Bottom at their Church Street location in Washington, District of Columbia. They had a pretty cool looking space so I popped my head in and met Henry who was down to go Once Around the Block. Join us as we talk about unique DC #tattoos, what it's like being #21yearsold, and where Henry want to be #in5years! Thanks Henry!
