In this podcast we have mental game guru Bill Cole. We've all seen a player on our favorite team choke in a clutch moment. But why do players some choke when others shine? How do you get in the zone? Is there any way to get in the zone better/faster? What sports/activities lend themselves to being in the zone?
Even as photographers we experience "the zone" where it seems that every shot you take is gold, or what I call "magic". In this conversation we talk about this and much more regarding the mental game!

L U C I M A | Podcast | Guns. Assumptions. Nothing Political.




I grew up with guns and a dad that believed a good offense was the best defense. Through a dinner conversation I remember some events in my childhood involved guns and my dad. Through my friend's reaction I realized that these were not ordinary childhood experiences. And it got me thinking about what we take for granted to be "normal". And THAT became this podcast and a bigger conversation.
What's "normal"?

I talk to TC about how he became a filmmaker, developing and making Rising From Ashes, how he plans to follow that enormous success, and the commonalities between my journey and his journey!
For someone who has achieved as much as he has, T.C. is super down-to-earth and just the nicest guy. In full disclosure, in our first conversation we had a technical issue that prevented us from finishing our conversation. As a result, this podcast is a two-part series that extends well into the second hour. As a reward for listening through the second hour you'll get a behind-the-scenes look at T.C. and some of the films that make us laugh. Enjoy!

L U C I M A | Podcast | Special Guest Jonathon Narducci




"Can people find love through the modern “mail-order bride” industry? Or is the international romance business just a scam? Sincere and unflinching, Love Me follows Western men and Ukrainian women as they embark on an unpredictable and riveting journey in search of love. Each character's experience exposes the myths and realities of this unique industry, while also exploring the much deeper, human story that is too often overlooked.
Forget everything you think you know about “mail-order" brides and get ready for an outrageously funny, touching and unforgettable look at the extreme lengths people travel for love."
Love Me - The Documentary on IMDB
On this podcast we have award-winning commercial and music video director and cinematographer Jonathon Narducci. Jonathon's first feature-length film “Love Me,” was featured in 13 international film festivals and has been distributed to dozens of countries around the world in 8 different languages. We talk to Jonathon about "Love Me" and approach to making films, his thoughts on the "mail-order bride" industry, how he feels about the characters in the Love Me, and his next film "Ghosts of the Republic" which is about the restrictive laws against surrogacy and adoption in France.
