"Dangerous DMs" interview with Terrence Cunningham

Why do we take ourselves so seriously? In the age of social media and perceived perfection it’s easy to lose sight of your inner child. In this episode of GOOD AF author and creative Maceo Paisley asks himself that question regularly and then takes a deep dive into that fear of potential rejection. On the other side is freedom and opportunity one could only dream of which has put him on some of the biggest stages revealing some of life’s greatest revelations.

Justin Trout Co-Founder of Health-Ade Kombucha When’s the last time you listened to that gut feeling?

Listen as Matt and Justin talk supermarket stalking, the thrill of the sale and how Justin runs the company like a certain Philadelphia NFL Championship organization...

When is the last time you’ve been fired from a job? How did you handle it? This week’s guest screenwriter Charlie Wachtel knows the feeling. He’s been fired nearly more times than LeBron James has rings - so when a Facebook post sparked an idea for a potential movie and with some time on his hands he began co-writing a screenplay that quickly opened doors for him. So quickly that the script would get him in front of some of the biggest names in Hollywood- like Spike Lee, and on the biggest stages in the industry like the night he won an Oscar for his screenplay, BlacKKKlansman.

Interview with BC Serna Traveler, Film Maker, Inspirational Speaker and Mentor “Confidence, for me, always stems living in that place of, yeah, others and usefulness. Because I realized one day in my life, I was in a room, it’s a metaphor but it’s also kind of true... I’ll never be the best-looking person in the room, I’ll never be the richest person in the room, I’ll never be the most successful person in the room but I could be the most loving person in the room, I could really challenge myself to be like that.” Serna has chosen to dedicate his life as a mentor to children and high school aged kids, showing them that they all have value and the world is theirs if they are willing to take a leap of faith. Matthew had a lot of fun with this one and found himself wanting to sign up for one of BC’s mentorship programs. As BC puts it, he’s just trying to celebrate the good.

Interview with JP Iberti Coffee Connoisseur / Co-Founder of La Colombe Coffee “This guy put seven, SEVEN, Sweet & Lows in a super short espresso. I mean it’s like listen- don’t. Don’t. Don’t drink anything then. It’s better. Just leave it alone. And I’m like dude, tasting’s over… and I took the coffee and it was over and we didn’t serve him coffee. It was just too much.” The former pilot-turned-roaster has flipped the coffee world upside down f0cusing on fair trade coffees and sustainability, a practice he and fellow co-founder Todd Carmichael have utilized for almost two decades. Matt and JP talk about JP’s “Soup Nazi” moment, Starbucks moving across the street and how many espressos he actually drinks in a day.

Interview with Sevag Kazanci Founder of Parks Project “It was this reality that man, this is a hustle, you just don’t show up with a phenomenal idea and people buy into it…” Sevag and Parks Project partner Keith Eshleman left their jobs at TOMs bringing with them the buy-one-give-one model idea in an effort to donate a portion of their sales to the National Parks. This interview covers everything from running a small clothing production out of his parent’s garage, to being at the social media forefront during the government shutdown demonstrating how to handle the lawlessness at the parks. Sevag (and his epic beard) talk about how he took his background as a skater and blended that SoCal edge with a vintage 80’s look to make his National Parks gear look super cool for the over 330 million visitors to our public lands each year.

Mike Escamilla Two-Time World Record holder, Pro-BMXer, Stuntman “You start to understand it’s not about being good at anything, everyone’s always like ‘you’re really talented’ and I’m like ‘I’m not at all.’ Once you learn to get good at one thing, you can learn to get good at anything and apply that. That’s the key.” From jumping out of planes, doing backflips from roofs (is that where he gets his nickname?) and going face-to-face with venomous snakes in remote areas of the globe, Mike has seen it all from fame to failure and back again. Time is no match for this wild man but his 5-year old daughter is perhaps his biggest adventure yet. IG @mikeescamilla GOOD AF Podcast hosted by Matthew Nadu is sponsored by Good Guy Wellness
