In this episode, we may or may not have a thing or two to say about canned fruit in heavy syrup. We explore what it means to be focused in the creative industry, why people sometimes tend to spread their talents thin, and what has brought us here. What is it the evil genius said in The Incredibles? When everyone is super, no one is.
