Inside the Minds of Steve Jobs & Elon Musk | Innovation Historian. Episode 156.
Matt and Ibrahim interview author and historian Harlan Lebo about disruptors, innovation, unconventional thinking and what separates people like Steve Jobs and Elon Musk from everyone else.
What makes someone willing to challenge the way an entire industry works? Why do certain people see opportunities that others miss? Harlan breaks down the mindset of disruptors, why conventional thinking can stand in the way of innovation, and what we can learn from some of the people who have fundamentally changed technology, business and culture.
Harlan also explores the role of risk, failure, obsession and creativity in disruption, what history teaches us about people who refuse to follow the status quo, and whether the next generation of innovators will look anything like the disruptors who came before them.

Why a Filmmaker Made a Movie About a Mustache. Episode 155.
Matt and Ibrahim interview filmmaker and director Imran J. Khan, creator of Mustache, about filmmaking, growing up Pakistani-American, identity, family and the story behind bringing Mustache to the screen.
What does it take to turn a personal idea into a feature film? How much of a filmmaker’s own life ends up in the characters they create? Imran breaks down the inspiration behind Mustache, the process of writing and directing the film, and how culture, family and the experience of growing up between different worlds shaped the story.
