Show Notes
Music. It can be a very personal thing. It can be most powerful when shared. It's on the radio, in our headphones on the commute, at the gym, on TV ads, in our favourite movies... what would the world be without it? And what would the world be without the people who create it?
This episode, we interrogate singer, songwriter, producer, and friend of the show Franc Cinelli to find out how he goes about creating new music. Where does it come from? What are his processes? And how does creating music relate to other areas of creativity in our lives?
if you're a regular listener you may or may not be aware that it's Franc's music we use on the podcast. Most notably: Driver - as our intro music. The Impossible Breaks Free - as our transition into the episode's sketch-specific discussion Julius Play His Winning Ace - (my favourite) at the end of the Listener Comments that round off each episode.

Here's some good stuff to check out that we reference in the podcast: Short Film: From Somewhere - Franc talks about his music making Axis of Awesome - songs that use the same 4 chords Steal Like An Artist - Book by Austin Kleon : 10 things nobody told you about being creative And what would an episode of this podcast be without referring to another of Jono's sketches: 3,500 lifetime reads

This discussion centres on “overnight success” as an illusion; prompted by Jono’s sketch of Twitter Cofounder, Biz Stone’s quote: “Timing, perseverance, and 10 years of trying will eventually make you seem like an overnight success.”
In this fun and nostalgic conversation, we discuss Jono's observation that with indoor games especially, as the momentum builds, you keep playing until something gets broken! There's a cheeky inevitability to it. It's a situation we've almost all certainly been in - whether you were the protagonist or not!
US Navy submarine captain and author David Marquet discusses leadership lessons from turning the USS Santa Fe from worst to best, focusing on “pushing authority to information” rather than pushing information up a hierarchy. Marquet critiques industrial-age leadership language that seeks obedience and creates “bobblehead” agreement, arguing that real engagement comes from giving people decision-making authority,
