47 & Unfiltered: Kris Krug's Tub Time Talks on Life, Tech, and Creative Revolutions Kris Krüg's MØTLEYKRÜG Podcast

    • Beeldende kunst

Hey, it's Kris Krug here, welcoming you to a very special episode of my podcast, '47 & Unfiltered'. This isn't your typical broadcast; I'm taking you with me into my favorite thinking space – my bathtub. As I turn 47, join me for an intimate, reflective, and raw conversation right from my tub.
We're diving into everything from my life lessons and future visions to my experiences at the 'Dent the Future' event in Maui and my work with the Google News Initiative. I'll share insights from my journey into the world of AI and media, my aspirations for MØTLEYKRÜG Media, and the upcoming FATALE Festival. It's about community building, creative evolution, and pushing boundaries.
So, grab your coffee (or a bathrobe!), and let's get soaked in some deep thoughts and laughter. Here's to another year of living unapologetically and building something truly transformative. Let's make a splash together!
