Whiskey Tango Foxtrot with @mattyconrad Matty Conrad

English brothers Martin & Ollie Nobbs might be most well known for founding one of the UK’s most successful barbershop chains HEADCASE. But, their next creative move just might change the whole industry completely. Listen in this week ad we talk about the ever changing role of technology and social media systems in barbering.

John Mosley is the hardest working man in the industry. He is a regular go-to for A-Listers, music moguls, and in some cases entire ball clubs... but you’ll never hear him talk about that. You’ve seen his work before even if you’ve never seen his face or heard his name... which is why he calls himself “POPULAR NOBODY”. But don’t be fooled by the moniker my friend John is a great big somebody and he got that way by making every client that sat on his chair feel like somebody too. Listen in on our conversation this week where we examine what it takes to build a brand, the real issue of racial inequality in the Industry, the damage that enhancements has done to our perception of ability vs reality.

This week we are taking a break from quarantine, from pandemics, from news that is inundated with anger, outrage, and fear. This week we are delving into the past and sharing a conversation that I recorded 8 months ago with one of the most likeable people in the industry. Sam Wall is a brilliant men’s stylist, a product line owner, a gifted educator, and above all else is always the life of the party. His approach to life is light and fun and something I think we could all use a bit more of right now... ENJOY.

TYRIK JACKSON is the teachers teacher and the southern baptist preacher of barbering. With a personal moto of "meet your own needs by serving the needs of others" this incredibly dynamic and deeply likeable individual has devoted much of his time to doing just that. Owner off multiple successful barbershops and proprietor of the PREMIER BARBER INSTITUTE where he regularly shares his wisdom and experience with his students and where he started the now industry IG famous "Tyrik Talk Tuesdays". This may be one of my favourite conversations I have had in a while with someone who genuinely inspires me ...so you really don"t want to miss it.

He’s arguably one of the most iconic hairstylists on the planet but his quick witt, sharp tongue, and great big heart have made him a bonafide legend. This week I get to inteview someone who has become a dear friend, a leader in the hair industry and the man that Vidal Sassoon called “one of the greatest showman he’s ever seen” . No matter who you are in this industry Robert Cromeans will entertain and inspire you.

Jason Schneidman has a Hollywood A- List clientele, a successful shop in Venice Beach, and a life that most stylists and barbers would envy. But the rocky road to sobriety and stardom has left him with a desire to pay it all forward. Listen to his inspiring story this week on the podcast.
