Podcast Description
On Truthache, we talk about the elephant in the room – those edgy topics that everyone is thinking, but afraid to talk about. We bring in a wide range of guests for expertise and perspective. Join us for conversations like: Is investing in the arts charity, a waste or economic development? Does everyone deserve to own a home even if someone else has to fund it? Can the government ever really be efficient, and does it matter how it gets there? Are nonprofits wasting federal funding or doing the government’s dirty work? On Truthache, there’s no sides, just vibes. Join Michael Salemi, Daniel Herndon, and Aaron Douglas and our guests as we cover the hard stuff we all are aching to talk about.

How to inspire anyone to be creative, no matter how boring they are.
If the family business has an open door for you, isn’t that the best option? That’s the question Darren Cooper has asked himself. Stability sounds nice, but so does entrepreneurship, and if you’ve got the bug to create, it’s difficult to do anything else. Starting your own thing is what it takes for some, stability be damned. But, as Darren explains, even the most mundane topics or businesses are interesting in the hands of a creative, including yours.
We discuss why long-form content is an essential tool for any business, and why it seems like everyone has a podcast. We talk about where marketing is going and why all the changes suggest that nothing has really changed, other than the technology. Finally, we talk about Darren’s naming convention for his kids, which is, shall we say, unconventional.
