Ep. 129 - Experimentation, Creative Seeds & Following What Excites You
Every creative journey starts with a seed—but not every seed is ready to grow. This week on Well Being, Theo, Andy, and Kelly dive into Rick Rubin’s chapter on Experimentation from The Creative Act: A Way of Being. They explore why creativity thrives when we let ideas evolve naturally instead of forcing outcomes, how failure becomes valuable information, and why following genuine excitement often leads to our best work. The conversation also touches on Kelly’s mysterious new creative project, finding the right “soil” for your ideas, experimenting with routines beyond art, and learning when to set a project aside instead of abandoning it forever. Before that, the crew shares what’s been inspiring them lately—from Dungeon Crawler Carl and The Boys to creator ambitions, cameras, and the excitement that comes with starting something new. Whether you’re an artist, creator, or simply trying to figure out your next step in life, this episode is a reminder that experimentation isn’t failure—it’s part of the process.

Ep. 128 - Creative Sparks, Goblin Hospitality, and the Richest Man in Town
This week on Well Being, Theo and Kel share the creative projects that have been lighting them up lately—from editing family memories into meaningful mini-films to launching a brand-new podcast about video game music. Along the way, they discuss the joy of finishing creative work, finding inspiration in unexpected places, and why sometimes “done” is better than “perfect.” In the Goblin Mode segment, they tackle hospitality, hosting, and holiday expectations. What does it mean to welcome people with what you already have? How do you create meaningful gatherings without chasing perfection? From homemade pies and backyard parties to board games, music videos, and Christmas traditions, the conversation explores how connection often matters more than presentation. Plus: Severance rewatches, RoboCop: Rogue City, podcast production headaches, and a heartfelt appreciation for It’s a Wonderful Life.

Ep. 127 - Goblin Hospitality & Creative Comforts
This week on Well Being, Theo and Andy hold down the fort as Kel takes the week off. The duo settles into a relaxed Friday recording session, sharing the little things that helped them get through the week—from The Legend of Vox Machina and Doctor Who to new creative projects and the joy of geeking out over the things we love. For the mental health segment, they continue their journey through A Goblin’s Guide to Life, exploring the idea of hospitality. What does it mean to truly make people feel welcome? How do we create spaces where friends can feel safe, comfortable, and free to be themselves? Along the way, the conversation wanders through impromptu party planning, crock-pot chicken, giant batches of iced tea, Rock Band nights, work stress, and the challenge of carving out time to recharge. It’s a cozy, low-key episode about community, comfort, and finding ways to make life a little warmer—for ourselves and for the people around us. Sparks of Inspiration: The Legend of Vox Machina, Doctor Who, Dungeon Crawler Carl, and the launch of Theo’s new video game music podcast, All Your Bass. 🎵 Theme by Affektiv Check out more of his music wherever you stream music: A-F-F-E-K-T-I-V 📧 wellbeing.podcast@outlook.com Remember: Just because you’re feeling a little strange, doesn’t mean you aren’t doing well.

Ep. 126 - Seeds, Stagnation & Starting Over
This week on Well Being, the gang digs into the creative process through the lens of The Creative Act: A Way of Being by Rick Rubin and explores the idea of creative seeds—those tiny sparks of inspiration that can grow into something much bigger if we’re willing to nurture them. Before that, it’s time for Sparks of Inspiration! Theo shares his love for Resident Evil 9, Kel takes us through a full room makeover powered by technology, determination, and a car jack, and Andy returns from vacation to workplace shakeups, unexpected changes, and a summer full of projects. The conversation turns toward creativity, stagnation, and the challenge of finding ideas when the well feels dry. The crew discusses collecting seeds without judging them too quickly, balancing personal projects with professional fulfillment, and why sometimes the hardest part of creating is simply figuring out what to make next. Plus: photography vs. filmmaking, creative droughts, D&D worldbuilding, office chaos, music festival totems, and why every creator needs a few seeds planted for the future. A thoughtful episode about trusting the process, staying curious, and leaving room for ideas to grow.

Ep. 125 - Creative Chaos & Comfortable Ruts
This week on Well Being, Theo, Andy, and Kel kick things off with a fresh round of Sparks of Inspiration. From anime recommendations and secret-agent adventures to blockbuster sci-fi tearjerkers, the crew shares what’s been fueling their creativity lately. Along the way, they dive into filmmaking, Disneyland memories, editing workflows, and the eternal struggle between capturing moments and actually doing something with the footage afterward. The mental health discussion continues through Rick Rubin’s The Creative Act: A Way of Being, focusing on the chapter Habits. What starts as a conversation about routines quickly turns into an honest look at procrastination, creative anxiety, perfectionism, and the strange ways our brains keep us stuck. The hosts explore the difference between habits and routines, the importance of creating space for creativity, and why sometimes the biggest obstacle isn’t a lack of talent—it’s simply getting started. Whether you’re wrestling with unfinished projects, trying to build healthier creative routines, or just looking for a little motivation to make something, this episode is packed with relatable stories, practical insights, and a few unexpected tangents about Tom Cruise movies and sneaking cameras into festivals.

Ep. 124 - Inspiration, Imperfection & America’s Pee-Pee
Theo returns from a shoot in West Virginia sick but inspired, bringing tales of graveyards, beautiful forests, filmmaking chaos, and distant sightings of America’s most famous monument (“the giant pee-pee”). The gang reunites after a short hiatus to dive back into The Creative Act: A Way of Being and unpack the slippery, magical nature of inspiration. This week’s Sparks of Inspiration include Kel dusting off vintage point-and-shoot cameras for an upcoming trip, Theo continuing his obsession with Dungeon Crawler Carl, and Andy spiraling back into anime confusion with Jujutsu Kaisen rewatches and new demon-fueled chaos on Crunchyroll. Along the way, the crew talks creative collaboration, experimental filmmaking, perfectionism, client work vs. personal art, and the weird reality of Hollywood productions fleeing California for tax credits and cheaper shoots overseas. It’s an episode about chasing inspiration while trying not to overthink yourself into oblivion — whether you’re making art with friends, packing too many cameras, or trying to save a production with duct tape and teamwork.

Ep. 123 - Beginner’s Mind & Broken Algorithms
We are BACK—all three of us in the same room again—and yeah… we’ve been through some things. But what better way to return than with a little gear envy, existential creativity, and a reminder that maybe we don’t know what we’re doing… and that’s kind of the point. This week’s Sparks of Inspiration hit everything from camera cravings (and the frustrating reality of DJI bans 👀), to Dungeon Crawler Carl chaos, to WrestleMania traditions with the boys. It’s a little tech, a little nostalgia, and a whole lot of “why do I suddenly want to spend money I don’t have?” Then we dive back into The Creative Act: A Way of Being by Rick Rubin—exploring Patience and Beginner’s Mind. We talk about slowing down, re-experiencing art, and how sometimes the best creative breakthroughs come from not knowing the “right” way to do something at all. From AI breaking a 3,000-year-old game to our own early days duct-taping cameras to cars, we unpack how ignorance, curiosity, and chaos can actually be creative superpowers. The conversation gets real as we reflect on losing (and maybe rediscovering) our creative identities—especially as filmmakers who’ve spent years working on other people’s visions. What happens when you don’t know what your thing is anymore? And how do you get it back? We wrap things up with thoughts on collaboration vs. solitude, critiques vs. criticism, and why the best creative environments are the ones where everyone’s just trying to make the best idea win. If you’ve ever felt stuck, uninspired, or unsure what you’re even creating anymore… this one’s for you.

Ep. 122 - Garage Gods & Goblin Hosts
This week, it’s just Theo and Kel holding it down—sending love to Andy while diving headfirst into sparks of inspiration, creative nostalgia, and full-on goblin hosting energy. We kick things off with hype around DJI’s next move (👀 Pocket 4 rumors), the ever-evolving world of content creation, and a surprise shoutout to Pizza: The Movie—a modern stoner comedy that absolutely delivers. From there, things get reflective as we explore how creativity has become more accessible than ever… and why that’s both exciting and a little overwhelming. Then it’s time to slip into Goblin Mode: Hospitality Edition. We revisit memory spaces—those chaotic, perfect hangouts from the past. Garages turned creative sanctuaries. Smoke-filled backyards. Dingy couches that somehow felt like home. The places where ideas were born, friendships were forged, and nothing else mattered. From there, we get real about: What it means to host people in your space The pressure of cooking vs. just showing up Dinner party insecurities (and why they exist) The unspoken rules of “acceptable” goblin hosting (frozen food? box wine? slightly burned meals?) And ultimately, we land on something deeper—what makes a gathering truly meaningful isn’t perfection… it’s presence. This one’s about creating spaces where people can just be—messy, creative, nostalgic, and real. Come hang in the garage with us.
