If you’re in need of a happy dose of brotherly love, keep watching! Joshua and Joseph are going down memory lane to discover how they ended up here in the first place. Catharsis? You’ll have to decide that for yourself.

We’re on Uncreative Radio with Alberto Padron, CEO of Stinghouse, to discuss how education and confidence create paths toward success. And how those who follow these paths decide the future of our country.

Alberto Padron has a rich educational background and continues to work with college campuses across the U.S., so we invited him to our studio to educate us on America’s emerging generation of young professionals. As a military man and college graduate, Alberto has a deep appreciation for education and its many forms. His lifetime of schooling and his success in the advertising and marketing sector solidified one truth: that one’s education shapes their ambition.

Alberto explains that education does not only apply to highschool and college graduates. He says that all schooling begins on the homefront and escalates from there. And he is correct. It leads young people to pursue certain passions and avoid others. In the end, he says, all people must take their schooling into their own hands. Expanding one’s mindset and skillset eventually becomes a private affair. We either seek to learn more and broaden our understanding of things, or we remain content and naive. Ultimately, this is what separates the successes of some people from the failures of others.

Given his educational background, his current position as CEO of Stinghouse, and his status as a leader, we asked him to elaborate on this thought and to shed light on a few curiosities…

1. How do college life and higher education impact young professionals?
2. Is there a clear market reward for those who can balance soft skills, hard skills, and interpersonal skills?
3. As an employer, what are a few characteristics you look at when hiring a new employee?
4. How can young people standout as worth candidates for hire?

Alberto’s insights answer a fifth question: Who is America?

Our country has endured curious ebbs and flows as of late, and the strangeness is not yet over. Since Alberto is regularly engaged with the upcoming league of young professionals, activist leaders, and (doomed-to-be) slackers we knew he would be able to give us a proper answer on what is to come and what type of person is to lead.

If you’re curious about how you can land a good job, Alberto Padron is sharing great advice. If you’re questioning your schooling, Alberto will explain the importance of staying engaged. And if you’re curious about whether you should vote for Kanye West in 2024, Alberto will tell you why that is a catastrophic idea!

Tune in on Thursday, November 14th at 6 P for Uncreative Radio with Alberto Padron to find out what is making Americans tick and how you can set yourself up for early success in the career of your choosing.

We’re on Uncreative Radio with Alan Hooper to discuss generational woes and the evolution of ethics.

It is said that every one of us harbors our own visions of the future; that we all have private kingdoms shining behind our eyes. There are those who dream longterm — who dream for others. While there are those who exploit the short term, doing whatever they can to further their status.

History has proven that the men and women who dream big and act for the common good are the ones who carve out the brightest futures. Yes, wicked people act on wicked deeds and their efforts, too, stain mankind’s history. But theirs are not everlasting marks. Not in the kingdom we envision.

Our guest, Alan Hooper, envisions a future that we welcome wholeheartedly. His life’s work has transformed Fort Lauderdale from a dilapidated seaside town into a vibrant centerpiece for arts and culture in South Florida. His work has created avenues for artists and small businesses to thrive; for families to grow; for people around the world to enjoy. To accomplish such a feat takes a lot of hard work, perseverance, and sacrifice. Or, as Alan Hooper simply puts it, it requires passion and a smile.

On this episode of Uncreative Radio with Alan Hooper, you will learn the secret formula to his success, how his upbringing inspired his life’s mission and the hidden powers of those who inspire growth in our communities versus those who hinder it.

More importantly, we learn about the generational crossroads we find ourselves in and how this apparent shift in ethics will decide what the next generation of leaders values most. If you consider yourself a visionary, watch the episode. If you want to learn how to make your dreams a reality, watch the episode. If you have diverted from your path in life, don’t fret. It happened for a reason, so watch the episode.

We’re on Uncreative Radio with Todd Steinberg in Fort Lauderdale!

It was Jon Stewart who said something along the lines of, “If you do not defend your values when they are put under pressure then they aren’t values. They’re hobbies.”

This is true today, more than ever. It seems that everyone has their “causes” and their “values.” They preach about them on social media, sending their prayers and other frivolous gestures for all to see. But when the time comes to truly defend those ideologies through action no one turns up. It’s no wonder progress is rarely achieved.

Blame it on the attention span of the average American citizen.

When something awful happens, whether it be a school shooting, mass deportation of innocent migrants, or the abandoning of an ally in a warzone, the masses rabble, shake their banners and meet up in city squares to express their views. They complain about the injustice, attract media attention and then go home and all is forgotten.

Take Jeffrey Epstein, for instance. He was the talk of the town for some time. His actions were horrendous. He literally sold off young girls to the richest elites for sexual pleasure. He was murdered in his jail cell a month ago. No questions were asked. His black book of contacts went unpursued by law enforcement. And the general public moved on.

No one is talking about Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes anymore. It has been swept aside in favor of impeachment protests, Hong Kong’s march to freedom, that abandonment of the Kurds in Syria, and so on. And these topics, too, will be forgotten in time. And, ultimately, nothing will come of it except the demise of the innocent. No punishments will convict the guilty parties. The world will keep spinning and we will all find something new and even more wicked to rally our pathetic cries.

And it is within this context that Todd Steinberg is watching helplessly as the world goes to ruin.

Todd Steinberg is one of the founders and owners of Komuso Design. He started the business with his wife Vanessa to bring positive change to the world. They are one of our favorite clients to work with. Their vision and brand are incredibly inspiring. You can check out some of the work we’ve done for Komuso on our website. If you like what you see, you can join their growing community by following them on Instagram.

Anyway, Todd was not always in the business of helping others. Not exactly. His first career was in vacation planning and management. He would plan extravagant spring break trips for college kids, sending them to Mexico and other paradises to get drunk and party. He wasn’t exactly fulfilled by this work. So, he did what a lot of people are too afraid (or too passive) to do: he pursued a dream he shared with this wife. This lifestyle change and the anxieties created by his former career were the impetus for Komuso Design.

The moral of the story is that Todd took action to make his dreams a reality. He did not talk about his ambitions then casually let them slip away. No, he (and his wife, Vanessa) worked really hard to create a life of purpose. To achieve such a thing requires sacrifices. But that did not deter them and it should not deter anyone of us from working to make positive changes in the world.

It may sound daunting, like some crusade you must dedicate your life to. But it isn’t. As an American, you have more power to make a change in this world than most. It’s called voting… So, are you ready to stop talking about your values and actually show up to defend them?

Tune-in on Thursday, October 17th for Uncreative Radio with Todd Steinberg for a lesson on taking action to change a world that is moving in the wrong direction. Or… you can send us your prayers on Facebook, kick back and watch the world burn.

We’re on Uncreative Radio with Leslie Lynn Nifoussi in Fort Lauderdale!

Have you ever had to physically fight for your life?

Most of us have played out such horror stories in our imaginations. But very few of us have ever actually been put to the test. (This is a good thing.)

Our guest, Leslie Lynn Nifoussi, is a survivor of attempted murder. One day she found herself in a completely random scenario fighting for her life. The bloody scene started with a sweater and a rock…the rest of the story is Leslie’s to tell.

Without saying any spoilers (but, yeah, she obviously survives) we can say that her story is terrifying because it is so plausible. Any one of us could be the target of a random attack one day. If you think about it, truly think about it, random acts of violence are the true horror stories of our time.

Movies like The Conjuring, The Exorcist, and Us are scary but their stories are so fabricated and disillusioned that their shock value begins to lose emphasis. No one gets possessed by the devil anymore, and even fewer scenarios play out where our clones rise from the sewers to murder us with scissors. Whereas movies like Natural Born Killers, The Devil’s Rejects, and The Strangers, where unsolicited acts of violence drive the characters and the narrative, are absolutely terrifying. Predators do exist and their deeds are, in fact, bloody.

In a split second, without provocation, someone could attack you with murderous intent. It could be while you are walking to your car at night, resting in your home, or even working at a surf shop on the Jersey Shore in the middle of broad daylight.

Fortunately for our viewers, Leslie Lynn Nifoussi’s story is about much more than surviving attempted murder. It’s about perseverance and creation. She never let the terror and post-traumatic stress from that situation limit her life. She did not dwell on the violence nor play the victim. She traced a silver lining from that day — the fact that she survived — and used that vigor to fuel a new chapter in her life.

Uncreative Radio with Leslie Lynn Nifoussi tells of a journey that begins with a random act of violence and a deadly encounter and manifests into something beautiful and inspiring. Her story is about the ability to convert trauma into art. In his book, The Devil’s Pleasure Palace, Michael Walsh explains that all art is derived from conflict — that humanity’s shared struggles and defining differences inspire artistic expression. And perhaps his insights have truth to them. Leslie Lynn Nifousssi might agree, too. The conflict gave rise to her artistic expression, after all.

Leslie Lynn Nifoussi is publishing a book about her deadly encounter and how she channeled positivity from a seemingly desolate situation. Her writings are that of coping with trauma, the freedom of catharsis, and the act of creating something beautiful and meaningful out of ugly situations.

Tune in Thursday, October 10th at 6 PM for Uncreative Radio with Leslie Lynn Nifoussi to hear the gritty details of her story and for a sneak-peek into her upcoming novel.

If you deal with stress and anxiety from time to time or even daily, then you should not only listen to Leslie’s inspiring story, you should also check out Komuso Design. We have been working with Komuso for years. Their product, the Shift, is a tool that helps people cope with stress and anxiety by channeling the power of their breathing. It has helped some of us get through stressful situations and may do the same for you.

A Little Bit About Leslie Lynn Nifoussi

Leslie Lynn Nifoussi is a Freelance TV/Talk show Host, Actor, Model, and Voice Over Artist. Her work has been featured in various commercials and print publications. Be sure to follow her on Instagram and keep a lookout for her upcoming self-care book.

We’re on Uncreative Radio with Tunde Ogunlana in Fort Lauderdale!

One of the underlying features defining this era of the 21st century is division. The use of division as a political, corporate, and activist tactic has given rise to nasty behavior. Violence in the form of mass shootings and white supremacy being some of the most severe. But what if division has given rise to something more wicked? What if division has given cynicism a platform to advance, and what if that cynicism is targeted at humanity as a state of being?

Tunde Ogunlana instigates interesting perspectives on Episode 15 of Uncreative Radio. He has been analyzing humanity’s track record on division, violence, and dehumanizing behavior and is now drawing certain conclusions. And, looking even deeper, he explains how humanity’s tragic behavior has manifested into another troubling outlet for escape: suicide.

In Episode 15, Tunde explains that we are not just living in a toxic world. We are enduring one.

Yes, there are those fighting for change. But there are still too many people clinging to their cynicism, their judgments, and their deranged dogmas. We must wake up. But we won’t. Not yet.

We are now forced to acknowledge that school shootings are a norm in the US. They have even become a platform for online jokes. It’s sick. And this is just what’s on the surface — what’s on the news. There are other harsh realities. Soon, we will have to acknowledge that despite humanity’s violent state of being, this is the first time in our history that children under the age of ten years old are killing themselves.

Let that sink in. Now ask yourself, has humanity’s attachment to hatred, violence, and division produced an inherent loathing within our youth? Do we live in a society that disgusts our children to the point of…? Are cynicism, division, and an ingrained culture of violence the root of the cause?

Enough of our speculation. Tunde Ogunlana will have better answers for us.

Tune-in Thursday, October 3rd at 6 PM ET for Uncreative Radio with Tunde Ogunlana to learn the agonizing truth about the toxic world we are forced to endure.

We’re on Uncreative Radio with Alexis Nichole Smith in New York City!

Alexis Nichole Smith is a television and film actress most known for her performance in House of Cards (2013), Loserville (2016), and Tryst (2015).

In episode 14 of Uncreative Radio, Alexis Nichole Smith shares what it’s like holding your own in Hollywood amidst scandal and sexual harassment.

Alexis Nichole Smith joined the cast of House of Cards before Kevin Spacey’s sexual misconduct allegations surfaced. When his demons did go public, she had to make a choice. She tells of her experience abandoning a major show and a cast she loved for a crime that did not impact her life at all. From there, we delve deeper into the scandals of Hollywood, the division of naivety and innocence, equal pay, and how some household names are standing up for their colleagues in an industry that practices gender bias and favoritism.

We’re on Uncreative Radio with Hana Ostapchuk in New York City!

Hana Ostapchuk is a television personality in the sports broadcast arena. She has worked with nationally recognized channels, such as FOX Sports Florida and CBS Sports. During her time with CBS Sports, before moving to NYC, Hana hosted and contributed to all CBS Sports digital content including CBS News, Reiter’s Block, NFL & NBA Live Draft Specials, 247Sports, SportsLine, Fantasy Football Today, CBS Sports podcasts and daily coverage of the entire national sports landscape.

Episode 13

There ain’t no rest for the wicked but is there at least redemption?

This week’s episode of Uncreative Radio with Hana Ostapchuk ventures behind the scenes for cringeworthy sins and extremely uncomfortable situations — often the price of show biz. Hana’s journey through the sports broadcasting arena provided her unique insights into the culture behind the camera. If you have ever been curious about the language that you don’t hear outside the control room (we’ll call it locker room talk), then you’ll want to hear what Hana has to say. You may be surprised to hear what is shared when the mics are switched off. We’ll give you a hint… it’s the cause of Hana’s biggest fear when hosting a live show.

Any talk of behind the scenes debauchery wouldn’t be complete without venturing further down the rabbit hole to where the real sickos play. Matt Lauer, Kevin Spacey, Bill Cosby, R. Kelly, and Michael Jackson are all up for debate. But that’s not all. We’re also asking the hardest question of all: who is truly at fault? Is it the knowing victim, the predatory boss, the male-dominated professional landscape, or, worse yet, the parents?

If you like hearing about extremely uncomfortable situations, cringeworthy sins, and where the blame falls, then tune in Thursday, September 19th at 6 PM for the full episode of Uncreative Radio with Hana Ostapchuk and Josh Miller!

We’re on Uncreative Radio with Willie Morris, discussing crucial issues, the US presidency, the power of influencers, and “that one time…”

Willie Morris is a successful, self-made NYC entrepreneur and public speaker. He is also a longtime friend of the guys at the studio. We’ve worked with Willie on several video production projects around the world. We created video content for his first business, Faithbox, which is now called Fan Box. And he joined our team in Honduras and Guatemala to help create free media for small nonprofits doing incredible work in their communities with our nonprofit program, C&I Reach.

You can learn more about Willie Morris on his Youtube Channel and Instagram.

Episode 11 with Willie Morris

On this week’s episode of Uncreative Radio with Willie Morris, Josh and Willie cover crucial topics, the US Presidency (or, rather, the many problems currently associated with the seat of power), the power of the imagination, and “that one time…”

First, Politics

Willie Morris stays well-informed on US politics. As a business owner, you have to. Out of all the democratic candidates fighting for the party nomination, Willie Morris considers Pete Buttigieg to be a frontrunner. Funny enough, C&I Studios filmed Pete Buttigieg’s campaign ad for the Indiana State Treasury.

Willie appreciates Pete Buttigieg’s composure on the debate stage most of all. When asked, Pete Buttigieg discusses the issues without redirecting to Trump’s lack of qualifications. His presence proves he has the mindset to guide our country in a better direction. If you don’t know about Pete Buttigieg’s stance and vision, you should check out his campaign website. Otherwise, Willie’s next top pick would be Michelle Obama, which, we’re sure, we can all get on board with.

As with any conversation regarding US politics, the issue of gun control is often presented. Comment on Youtube with your position. We’d love to hear what our community thinks of their 2nd amendment rights. Are you a hunting man? Willie Morris is. Are you willing to give up your guns for the safety of the general public? Willie Morris is. Watch the episode [minute 7:15] to hear what he has to say.

Up next…

Following their conversation on politics, gun control, and the state of homelessness in the United States, Josh and Willie venture into a new topic: the making of a creative mind and the power imagination has on sculpting one. We love this conversation and think you will too, especially if you are a creative soul or a parent helping to sculpt a child’s beautiful mind.

The meat of the conversation: the imagination is fuel for success, regardless of one’s profession. However, it must be nurtured in youth and cared for as an adult. There are certain strategies for strengthening the ability of creative thought/action and ways of harming it. You should be mindful of the difference!

Tune in Thursday, September 5th at 6 PM to learn how Willie Morris keeps his imagination engaged and how his imagination feeds his career as a self-made entrepreneur.

Film Actor, Rafael Jordan, joins Josh Miller on-air in New York City in Episode 9 of Uncreative Radio.

In Episode 9, Rafael Jordan and Josh Miller dissect the mental state of the good ‘ole USA following the wake of two mass shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio on the weekend of August 6th, 2019.

This most recent stent of mass shootings (isn’t it disturbing that we have become so desensitized to mass murder that we use phrases like ‘the most recent mass shooting’ as if this is standard) 31 people were killed. They were targeted and killed based on their ethnicity. So, let’s call it what it is: domestic terrorism.

This is one of the greatest problems in America… the deception of political categorization. This practice is designed to change the way we think–to use language to lessen the threat of the action or a consequence.

For instance, “Global Warming” was changed to “Climate Change”; “Shell-Shocked” was changed to “Battle Fatigued,” and most recently “Post Traumatic Stress Disorder;” “Domestic Terrorism” to “Mass Shooting,” and so on. Not to mention, the political machine has even gone so far as to mispresent our gun crisis, as well as our white nationalist conflict, as a mental disease epidemic.

Scholars say, the pen is mightier than the sword, and they are right. Language is power. Only nowadays it is not being used to liberate communities, deride the wicked or humanize the misrepresented. It is being used to propagate and normalize racism, prejudice, gender inequality, class inequality, and hatred.

Rafael Jordan sees the world in this light–it is impossible not to if you just open your eyes. He is joining us on #UNCREATIVE Radio to share his worldview with our host Josh Miller. 

It’s funny, though, because when some people hear us talk about racism and prejudice in America, they tune out. We’re sure there will be those who dismiss this episode and instead tune into their regular “safe” programming. It’s human nature to cling to our very own, very special status quo. But if it’s at the expense of someone else (hell, the expense of an entire people) then you need to wake up.

Unfortunately, people tend to argue in defense of their status quo. Not aggressively. Just at-bay, as if their reality depends on it. We listen; we always listen. If we didn’t, then we’d be no better than the narrowminded. But at the end of the day, it’s not white people who fear for their lives at routine traffic stops or shopping trips to Walmart. And it’s not just black people either. Today, the same fears affect the Spanish community. Only their fears are not “will I make it home tonight?” it’s “will I make it home to my kids tonight?”

Society is regressing. Isn’t it obvious? Perhaps too many people desperately arguing in defense of their status quo.

Tune in tomorrow, August 22nd at 6 PM for Episode 9 of Uncreative Radio with guest Rafael Jordan if you’re ready to wake up.

Uncreative Radio with Pavllo Zengo!

Joshua Miller connects with Pavllo Zengo, the brand storyteller at Foreo in Los Angeles, in Episode 3 of Uncreative Radio.

The professional scale is tipped in favor of women when it comes to diversity in modeling and the beauty industry (no surprise there). But how exactly do gender and sex impact narratives? Is there an underlying message subliminally attached to the male and female figures that cannot be severed? Why does the same word; the same phrase; the same connotation differ so greatly when applied to different body types? Though women lead the world of modeling and beauty is it all a byproduct of the male gaze?

Tune in Thursday, July 11 with Pavllo Zengo and Josh on Uncreative Radio Episode 109 for the answers.

A History Of Working With Models

This topic resonates with us. We work with tons of models, especially in South Florida and Los Angeles. The majority are, naturally, beautiful females. We collaborate on creative projects, client work, and also help promote their brands by providing media services for their model reels, as well as, exposure. The profiles of Mercedes Guittierez and Roya Zangoui are great examples of the work we do with female models.

In the wake of this discussion with Pavllo Zengo, we are reminded of our creative talent event, Crew Call, which we host quarterly at our headquarters in Fort Lauderdale. Crew Call is an invitation to all creatives: photographers, cinematographers, writers, stylists, and, of course, models. We do what we can to diversify our talent pool between male and female models for this event, but they don’t all receive the same level of exposure. If you want to see if the stereotypes and favoritism for female models reign true, check out the recap videos of the last event.

Uncreative Radio with Amber Tollefson!

Joshua Miller connects with Amber Tollefson, the Founder and Chief Storyteller of docu+brand C R E A T I V E and the Flamingo House Story, on Episode 108 of Uncreative Radio.

In this episode, Amber Tollefson and Josh Miller discuss the obstacle of social adversity and how it can decide the fate of one’s career.

Race, gender, and sexual orientation are obstacles for some and sources of strength for others. Amber Tollefson understands this very well. As a gay, female entrepreneur, she has had to prove her prowess, intelligence, and competence every step of the way. In Episode 2, she explains how she found strength in the face of social adversity, and where she focused that fortitude to excel beyond social prejudice. Her message is one of perseverance and authenticity, and her position as a leader is that of a combatant to narrowmindedness.

Her message carries weight, asking hard questions that many have never had to face (and never will have to face)… How do you respond to prejudice? Will you ever have to? Does it impact your career? These are the questions Josh and Amber Tollefson will get to the bottom of during Episode 2 of Uncreative Radio.

No matter the hate and bias in the world, on Uncreative Radio we all stand united. Tune-in July 4th at 6 PM ET.
