In the first episode of My Five Minutes, SLG Publishing publisher and founder Dan Vado looks at the arrogance required to create anything at all, at least anything worth remembering.

Before there is a book, a comic, a song, a podcast, a company, or a stage, there is usually one unreasonable belief: that the idea in your head is worth bringing into the world.

As SLG Publishing celebrates its 40th anniversary, Vado reflects on the confidence, delusion, ego, and blind faith involved in his own path through being a creativer professional..

This episode sets the tone for My Five Minutes: short, personal reflections on creativity, memory, mistakes, publishing, music, failure, and the strange art of not quitting.

Topics: creativity, ego, indie comics, SLG Publishing, podcast launch, independent publishing, creative risk, making art, failure, persistence.

A brief promotional reel of my upcoming My Five Minutes podcast. Truth be told, this is extracted audio from a video reel. Still, it give you an idea of the subject and flavor of the show.
