    Why making it in music is (almost) impossible - Zillie Holiday - Ep93

    Me & Zack (aka Zillie Holiday) used to go to high school together. Now he raps and cooks some absolutely fire beats. This was the first music artist I've had on my podcast so I learned a lot about sampling and how Zillie Holiday is trying to make it in a highly competitive space.

    The Next Big RTS You Havn't Heard About - Ep89 - Ignacio Trelles

    The Next Big RTS You Havn't Heard About - Ep89 - Ignacio Trelles

    Igancio is a video game developer based in Uruguay that loves the style of 90s RTS games. So much so that he’s started making his own. Dying Breed is a single player RTS game inspired by classics like Red alert and will be published by the iconic Microprose. The publisher of games like Sid Meier's Civilization, Worms Armageddon, and Rollercoaster Tycoon, just to name a few. To me, his story of how he started making the game and his struggle to find a publisher is just as interesting as the game he’s trying to create. If I had an infinite budget, I’d hire a crew to follow him around for a year and make a documentary on what it’s like making an indie game in Uruguay in 2024. But I don't, so this podcast will do. We talked about why he loves this genre so much, what does a modern day indie developer look like, is he using AI, how hard was it to find a publisher and lots more!

I was Bored Then I Found Nelly

I used to spend my days spending my entire paycheck on FIFA Points on FIFA and donating money to AA9Skillz on Twitch so I could hear him yell “BOOYAH” and mispronounce every players name. Then I found the Bored With Nelly Podcast! Now I haven’t spent a dime on FIFA or Twitch streamers. His podcast gave me Tinder Tips and now I have an endless Rolodex of women who want to buy me dinner for Valentine’s Day. Without Nelly I’d still be a beta male who had no social skills. Now I workout 5 times a week and have a weird obsession with Serbia. Checkout this podcast if you were a bored loser like I was. Now I’m never bored and have plenty of females to keep me busy.
