Episode 7: Wiz Kelly-From Hooping to Musical Artist, Making Art For Yourself, and Experimental Creativity
In this episode, Ant and I got the chance to sit down with a good friend of ours, Tariq Latchison, also known as Wiz Kelly. Tariq as Wiz Kelly has released 5 projects, including Wiz Kelly Vol. 1 Nowhere and Yaphet Kotto (which he and his dad co-created). Oh..and his dad, Khalid Salaam, has musical talent too—playing seven different instruments and rapping himself. So, in this conversation with Wiz Kelly, we get into his upbringing with his parents, the transition from spending a lot of his time hooping—as he played basketball in high school—to now making full albums, creating for yourself vs. creating for others, the side of being an artist that many don’t see, and so much more. Enjoy!

Episode 4: Josiah Pope - Achieving Hoop Dreams, Being Multidimensional, Lavar Ball Stories, and the Business of Basketball
In this episode, Ant and Josh sit down with Josiah Pope. Who is Josiah Pope? Someone who growing up was involved in a multitude of things from playing basketball and kinds of sports, to playing instruments like violin, to performing in theatre, to learning languages. As he went through high school he gravitated more so to basketball. He would follow this path all the way to the pros, playing out of the country and in the JBA also known as the junior basketball association, a league started by entrepreneur and media figure Lavar Ball.
In this conversation we talk about so much like: Josiah's background growing up in D.C and the multitude of activities that he did as a kid, him gravitating towards basketball and his journey to eventually going to play pro and the realities of professional basketball, his experience playing in the JBA along with Lavar Ball stories, his goals shifting when he realized that playing in the NBA was no longer his end goal, and much more.

Episode 3: The 2 Day Eye-Gaze Challenge and Extraversion vs Introversion
In this episode, Josh and Ant talk about the results of a challenge that they took on together, the Eye-Gaze challenge, which can be found here (https://tim.blog/2020/02/24/comfort-challenge-1/). This challenge involved Josh and Ant, as self-proclaimed introverts, creating and keeping eye contact with complete strangers in the street, so as you can imagine, this challenge was both interesting and a push out of their comfort zone. From talking about their experiences doing the challenge, they then talk about the idea of being introverted vs. being extraverted not being what most people think it might mean. Though this is a shorter episode compared to the previous two, hope you enjoy!
