Ep. 55 Mexican Energy ft Manny Fuentes Product Designer from Des Moines
Mexican Energy! I found Manny on tiktok and whats instantly captivated by his products, brand and overall passion for product design, From the tape used for his boxes to the accessory keychain he created days before his first pop up in Chicago Manny has an amazing eye for detail. I found out so much more on this pod and I highly reccommend you listen all the way through to learn not only about product design but what it's like balancing a business with fatherhood.

54. It's A Bogota Feeling ft. Pig One1
I sit down with @pig.one1 a colombian illustrator and clothing brand owner of Bogota Feeling : https://www.instagram.com/bogotafeeling/During this conversation I see a lot of similarities with Nicholas, we both are illustrators with a passion for streetwear clothing. What stook out to me was his name Pig One obviously me using a pig as the mascot for my brand I was wondering if he also drew Pigs but to my surprise it is just a name that stems from being stubborn or "pigheaded".
Nicholas's work ethic is apparent from the moment I arrived to his studio because he was in the middle of working on more cut & sewn tees for his brand. With his mom being a tailor he has been able to streamline his process to where he can manufacture his own designs straight from home. Bogota Feeling has deep roots in Hip Hop culture which I found fascinating because it pays homage to 90s-2000s era underground music primarily from New York. I learn so much about him and the streetwear culture in Bogota through this sit down. Thank you for listening and hearing us out, my spanish isn't as good as his as you can tell but I know with more conversations like this one it can only get better! Make sure you go follow PigOne and his brand it is super dope! Hope you have a great day keep making pigs fly! https://www.instagram.com/pig.one1/

Larry designs items that he hopes will one day scale to heights of buildings one day. From this conversation I can tell he is someone who doesn't take no for an answer, Larry will find a way to make it happen. From an egg holder to complex con's booth designs larry has no limit on what he can design/create he just wants to make the world a more beautiful functional place.
