Burn The Map: Steve Eror — AI Agents, Skydiving, and Why Nap Pods Are Dead
We sit down with Steve Eror—skydiver, AI troublemaker, and the guy who’ll absolutely call out your nap pod culture for what it is: overhyped and overdue for extinction. Steve walks us through his wild career pivot from Wall Street’s soul-sucking grind (hello, Merrill Lynch and Morgan Stanley) to the frontlines of AI at Signals, where he’s busy helping companies hire “cloud employees” instead of more warm bodies. Along the way, we get the unvarnished truth about what it’s really like to swap financial jargon for code, why automation isn’t your enemy (unless you’re mediocre), and how building a digital army of agents might just be the ticket to working less and living more. Oh, and did I mention he jumps out of planes for fun?

Chasing Chaos, Curating Creativity, and the Relentless Art of AI Video with Luka Tisler
We sit down with Luka Tisler, the Slovenian mastermind who treats AI video tools like his personal playground. Luka’s journey is a whirlwind of reinvention—from post-production purist to VFX wizard to motion graphics innovator to, well, teaching the rest of us how to keep up. He went from wrangling cameras to breaking generative models, turning every “hobby” into a full-blown career, and building Lighthouse Academy so others could stop floundering and start creating.

Don’t Build the Studio—Build the Brand: Lessons from Anika Jackson
We talk to Anika Jackson about what it actually takes to go from “hey, let’s start a podcast!” to running a slick, sustainable media machine. She walked through her own scrappy journey—launching Brand Amplified out of her PR agency, turning a side hustle into a business, and learning (sometimes the hard way) that you don’t need a $25,000 studio to get started. What you do need: consistency, a clear sense of why you’re doing it, and a willingness to put in the reps, even if your first few episodes are a little rough around the edges..

Burn the Map: Psilocybin, Law, and Life with Bridger Jensen
In This Episode: We sit down with Bridger Lee Jensen, founder of the world’s first federally protected psilocybin religion, Singularism. Bridger takes us on a trip (pun intended) through the wild ride of founding a new movement—in Provo, Utah, of all places—facing down the SWAT team, and coming out the other side with his mushrooms (and his freedom) intact. Bridger’s story is a cocktail of therapy, philosophy, legal warfare, and a healthy disrespect for the way “it’s always been done.” He’s a therapist, a reluctant founder, and, apparently, the only guy who’s ever had the government give his stash back—by court order.
