In this episode of The Hype Pod, we sit down with Chris “Squint”, visual composer, filmmaker, and creative visionary whose lens has captured icons like Michael Jordan, Coldplay, DeAngelo, and Steph Curry.

A Palo Alto native and self-taught creative, Squint shares how an early start in public access TV led to a global career at the intersection of music, sports, and technology. He opens up about the power of humility in success, how faith fuels his creativity, and why purpose—not clout—keeps him grounded in the industry.

We dive into the story behind his upcoming Steph Curry book "Shot Ready" , the heart behind Creative Hustle at Stanford, and his mission to use storytelling as a form of worship. Squint’s journey shows what it looks like to pursue excellence, walk in obedience, and stay true to your calling when fame and faith collide.

This conversation is packed with inspiration for creators, entrepreneurs, and believers who want to use their gifts for something greater than themselves.

In this episode of The Hype Pod, we sit down with Joshua Perry JP—entrepreneur, creative director, and cofounder of Trust God Bro—whose story weaves together art, ministry, and business.

JP shares how he went from pursuing a full ride at one of the top art schools in the nation to walking away in faith, stepping into ministry, and eventually building one of the largest global faith based online communities. We talk about the power of branding and storytelling, why consistency and authenticity drive social media growth, and how entrepreneurship can be an act of obedience and service to God.

Whether he’s directing creative at a church, scaling a direct to consumer brand, or mentoring leaders, JP brings clarity on building with excellence while keeping Christ at the center. He reminds us that real influence is not just about platforms or products but about stewarding creativity for Kingdom impact.

This is a conversation filled with wisdom for entrepreneurs, creators, pastors, and anyone ready to trust God with their ideas and build something that lasts.

In this episode of The Hype Pod, we sit down with Pastor Bobby Johnson—AI/ML strategist, product leader, husband, father, and lead pastor of Vive Church Oakland—whose journey bridges Silicon Valley innovation and Kingdom impact.

Bobby shares how a season of job loss pushed him to dive deep into product management and AI, and how early adoption of tools like ChatGPT reshaped the way he thought about work, creativity, and leadership. We talk about the rise of AI agents and even superintelligence, what it means for critical thinking, parenting, and discipleship, and why context, prayer, and creativity are still irreplaceable in a tech-driven age.

Whether he’s consulting companies on integrating AI, mentoring teams, or preaching in Oakland, Bobby brings wisdom on staying grounded in faith while navigating disruptive change. He reminds us that while technology can accelerate our abilities, it’s our foundation in Christ that shapes our identity, our calling, and our impact.

This is a conversation filled with insight for entrepreneurs, leaders, parents, and believers ready to embrace the future without losing what matters most.
