“CR does something in this podcast that was much needed for myself during these most difficult times.
Put all your Artistry, craft, and performance on PAUSE.
I share the feelings of “not being creative” right now. I share the tough rejections that follow you all your life, the lows and highs, the small epic battles and even smaller victories. I share the friends we have in the industry that we can always depend on and be intimate with. I share the loneliness that an artist can have working from gig to gig, traveling, and feeling like it’s not enough.
CR speaks about what I struggle with as an artist all the time: Why did I NOT book the job? Why did I NOT get a response to why I did NOT book the job? Am I NOT good enough? Am I being lied to? Am I being taken advantage of?
The podcast is full of human emotional quality that makes me laugh, think, reminisce, and cry. It reminds me that I’m human and that I go through a range of emotions in this industry that OTHERS share and go through as well.
Dead Eyes reminds me that I’m never alone. And like Connor’s mom says here about her son being fired from BOB—it’s not life or death. All of this brought CR back to his Midwest family, his roots, and that resonates with me now as I stay with my folks in MN...as I wait to see how it plays out. I was deeply moved by the end.
Thank you CR and your podcast team so much for exceeding my expectations 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 and I’m rooting for you all the way my friend. Cheers!”
