Ryah Deines, Ray Van Horn, Jr., Bert Edens, and Mark Pruett

1. For every Stephen King, for every Rush, there's maybe 10 that will be really lucky if they can make a living wage.
2. I think all of us go through these moments where we're on top of the world, we're in possession of our full confidence, and then we're on the flip side.
3. Fixing food for other people is absolutely my love language.
4. What's an influence that we would never expect in your life?

Be creative and do it now, you know, and live the consequences, or live the experience, because you just never know what's going to happen tomorrow.

This week's summit: the immortal author, publicist, musician, music expert, activist, DJ, badass: Nathan Carson of Nanotear.

Topics and quotes:

• Any art that I appreciate, I like knowing where it comes from and what those people's influences are, and so I think it's just a natural curiosity for me to trace all those roots
• Hole in the Sky, to me, is very much a better Black Sabbath song.
• You've got people saying, “Well, concerts should be free, or $5. I grew up going to $5 shows, why isn't it $5?”
• You can see I've got a pretty good, scar across my neck. It looks like I came out of a Highlander movie, successfully.
• I didn't want to have to wrap up my affairs and sell my records and finish my novel in 6 months.
• Making a list, or making a call, or making a plan.

Lyrics reference: Korn

Topics and Quotes:

• You have to speak a very, very great language, very intellectual, to sing in French.
• I needed to tell many things that I kept very… for a long, very long time, inside my body, inside myself, my brain.
• Try to understand that no one will come to knock to your door to save you.
• Because many people can't understand that, and they don't want to understand, because maybe they're afraid, we don't know.
