SEASON 2 - EP 2

If you wouldn’t talk down to your friends, why do it to yourself? And while we’re at it—don’t believe everything you tell yourself, especially the negative stuff. In this episode, Nadiv explores the power of self-belief, rewiring your mind for positivity, and shares practical tools, tricks, and book recommendations to help you manifest a life you love.

We're back! After a lengthly (and much needed) hiatus, Nadiv finally got himself to sit back down, behind the mic, and share some of the meaningful lessons he's learned along the way this past year. This episode touches on SELF BELEIF, MORNING RITUALS, SACRIFICING SOMETHING FOR A BIGGER PURPOSE, OPEN COMMUNICATION. All this and more! Nadiv also opens up about finding hopeful conversation through difficult world events and whatever else jumped to his mind that day. THANK YOU FOR BEING A LISTENER!

Welcome to the 10th episode of "Jokes Aside"! Nadiv sits down with one of his best friends, roommate and audition-sparring partner - Satellite Award winning actor Jeff Wilbusch! Jeff has starred in shows like "Unorthodox" (Netflix), HBO's "Oslo", "Bad Banks" and most recently got cast as the lead in David E. Kelly's new crime drama "The Missing" (NBC). Nadiv and Jeff talk about what it means to be an actor, learning life lessons from the characters they portray on screen and the dedication it takes to persevere in this industry and so much more. Enjoy the ride!

In this episode of "Jokes Aside", Nadiv sits down with his friend, Academy Award nominated animator and artist extraordinaire, Julien Bocabeille. Julien walks Nadiv through his journey as one of Hollywood's mot valuable animators - from animation school in Paris to his Oscar Nomination, from living in India and finally moving to Los Angeles, California to become one of DreamWorks Animation's lead animators, working on films like: Kung Fu Panda, How To Train Your Dragon, Puss in Boots and Boss Baby. Welcome to the fascinating world of Julien.

In this episode of "Jokes Aside", Nadiv sits down with himself again and reminisces about the past year where there was certainly never a dull moment. Moving countries, going from "in a relationship" to "single" (and skipping the "It's complicated" phase?) and after a year of the virus - back to work and booking movies!

In this episode of "Jokes Aside", Nadiv 'Zooms' with his childhood buddy - internationally successful singer/songwriter James Hersey! Whether listening on at home on Spotify, over the speakers at the gym or in my case even in a Tuk Tuk in Thailand, you've all heard his incredible songs "Coming Over", "Miss you" and most recently "Forget (About Everyone Else)" among many others. Nadiv and James have a long over-due chat about comedy, music, finding your artistic intention, staying true to yourself, being an artist in the age of social media and the future of entertainment after the age of Corona. Spoiler alert! James blesses us with a refrain (acoustic) to his most recent track and teaches Nadiv how to hit that 'high note'.

In this episode of "Jokes Aside", Nadiv sits down with his friend and world renown classical music conductor, Lorenzo Viotti. 'Lore' generously allows us to glimpse inside of his artistic universe and guides us through everything that comes with it: passion, dedication, focus, the importance of being alone, the pressures of the outside world and how to feel fulfilled and 'at one' with yourself through it all. The two of them discuss all of the above and still manage to find the time and space to lighten up the room. Fasten your seatbelts (or hide under a desk), because Lore's voice vibrates like an earthquake!

In this episode of "Jokes Aside", Nadiv sits down with the wonderful and talented Vivien (Vivi) König! This is the first time they've ever met and from what it sounds like, the first time Nadiv ever spoke german, sheesh! (Just kidding). These two chatterbugs talk about their artistic desires, their feelings towards acting on and off the stage and the interesting challenges they've both faced separating in-character feelings with real life. Have fun and be entertained!

In this episode of "Jokes Aside", Nadiv sits down with himself again and tries to decode the strange time's he's living in. Bare with him on this one! He sings (totally hit that high note), improvises, rambles on a bit about home work-outs and something about getting back up again 8 times after falling down 7 times... I think Denzel Washington said that once during an award show acceptance speech.... anyway, switch off and enjoy the ride!

In this episode of "Jokes Aside", Nadiv sits down with his parents Samy and Haya Molcho. This one hour conversation covers their positive perspective on life, relationships and the balance of family vs career. They speak openly about their up's and down's, their individual hardships and the ground stones they've built together within their now 45 year marriage. What does it mean to build a strong foundation as a couple and still accept each other's differences? How important are values? Have a listen and make sure to have a pen and paper nearby!
