Josh Moxey Podcast Josh Moxey

For the first podcast in over 2 years, we're covering my biggest mistake on YouTube so far. We'll be deep-diving into the most essential YouTube mistakes you need to avoid, how algorithmic/retention editing f**ked me up and the countless ways your ego will try and sabotage you in your creative endeavours.
We'll cover creative ego, quality vs. quantity, why the "big 3" took so long, the future of my YouTube channels, my failed leap of faith with consulting + content, doing what's required, energetic alignment, the power of getting to peace within your creative projects, and a whole lot more.
So excited to be back. Subscribe if you're new and into self-improvement and truth-seeking.

I completed Andy Frisella's 75 Hard program, and it was one of the most challenging things I've ever done. In this episode of the Josh Moxey Podcast, we deep dive on what I learned on 75 Hard, my 75 hard journey, my recommendations for each task, upsides/downsides of the program, and what life is like after 75 Hard.

In today's episode of the Josh Moxey Podcast, Josh sits down for the first solo podcast after a 5 month period of silence. Filled with rust but eager to share his evolution, he discusses:
- Simplicity, essentialism, minimalism and focus
- Detachment
- His experience so far with Andy Frisella's 75 Hard program
- The craziness of the current culture
- What it was like to return to social media after 2.5 months
- An inside look into everything that's changed for his content strategy and re-brand
- Honest updates to his entrepreneurial journey

Edit: apologies for the accidental music in the beginning at 3:25 but it did make it way more intense hahahahaha

In this episode of The Journal, I share why I left social media for 2+ months, how the journey of content catchup is helping me become a better video creator, and using the "wobble" I felt from social justice warriors with limited perspective to further my awakening on a spiritual level.

Welcome to The Journal 007, a solo podcast series where we have a 1 on 1 chat. We talk about the realizations, perspectives, and experiments from recent experiences in my self growth and business journey — all from a psychological, systematic and spiritual perspective.

Azel/Giuseppe Cuna is a world class beatboxer and social media influencer.

Azel is known for being the Italian beatbox champion, along with his iconic signature sounds of Liquid Bass and Vortex Whistle and for his passionate love of riddim, dubstep and similar genres of bass music.

He's created multiple viral beatbox covers of songs for Svdden Death, and connected the worlds of dubstep and beatbox in 2020 by creating the first half beatbox, half dubstep song with Snails.

In addition to, he's also one of the most genuine, kind and passionate souls I've ever met and I'm fortunate to call him one of my best friends.

In the Azel interview, we get into his secret passions, what it's like to be such a public facing person at a young age, and what Azel was like as a kid — and how his childhood qualities apply to his present self.

We cover the journey of how he came a world class beatboxer — from how he discovered beatbox, to the most intense year of work he put in, to becoming the Italian beatbox champion at the ripe age of 17 years old.

Throughout, we highlight the journey he's had with developing his signature sounds — the famous Azel liquid bass & vortex whistle — as well as struggles he had in the early days of beatboxing, and why he continued to persevere even though he wasn't good at the beginning.

We discuss the moment he realized he needed to do beatbox, why he turned beatboxing into a serious thing, how he discovered dubstep through beatboxing, and where he got his name from.

Digging deeper, his mindset is explored as we unwrap how he thinks about challenges, accepting failure to use it for growth, "randomness", the positives and negatives of his obsessive nature, and the powerful self belief he has for himself.

We also talk about hitting 1 million views at 17 years old, connecting the EDM world with beatbox world, his journey with learning to view himself as an artist.

And last but not least, we have multiple laugh attacks (including from Azel's loathing of Facebook) and nerd out on our favourite tracks from 2010 era of dubstep.

Expect Azel/Giuseppe to return in the near future for multiple follow up episodes where we'll go deeper into the psychology of success, our perspectives on the world, our systematic approaches — and a lot more.
