2021/12/01

You ever do something over and over and over and eventually just feel like you're stuck? After 100+ episodes of the Destination Different podcast there are definitely moments where I feel like I'm stuck and questioning everything. "Is this the right format?" "Who are the people listening?" "Why do they care?" "Do I need to go in a different direction?" "Is it time to hang it up?" All of these are things I've asked myself over the last two years of hosting this show. And more often than not I'm just

2021/11/25

After my guest for this week needed to reschedule I was left with a choice... Do I put out some fluff BS by myself? Or do I try something a little different? This is Destination DIFFERENT after all, so I went with the latter. Every year on Thanksgiving when my grandmother was still alive she would make us all go around the table and say one thing we're thankful for. And while this is a podcast and not a Thanksgiving dinner table, I thought it would still be cool to ask some of the most important

On this week's episode host Ryan Dunn discusses what it's going to take to elevate Destination Different to the next level. After two years and over 100 episodes the podcast has hit a bit of a plateau in terms of listenership and general excitement. What changes could be made to drive future growth of the show? We look at other top performing podcasts and the concepts that make them sticky, as well as look inward at Destination Different from the show format to the target audience to the

2021/11/04

"Soooo they're like pants, but for your plants...?" I know, it's a tough concept to wrap your head around, but when you see them you'll never look at a potted plant the same way ever again. Michelle Sieg is a creative person by nature and a director / art director by trade. And she's a DAMN good one at that. She has worked on campaigns for massive brands likes Nike, Spindrift, and Squarespace to name a few. Yet somehow it's her work outside of "work" that has gained her even more notoriety. Michelle

2021/10/27

For over two years I've been churning out podcasts, interviewing interesting people, and trying to grow this show. Yet, if you were to look at the progress in terms of listenership or momentum you wouldn't see a whole lot. Outside of a few minor peaks and valleys, it has been pretty flat since the day I launched. I'm still not sure I've quite figured out who this show is for or what "niche" it belongs in. But when it comes to the internet, it seems like the narrower you go, the more niche your

Chocolate Overload - Brand Building, Cocoa Growing,...

2021/10/20

If I started a chocolate business I would probably weigh 400 pounds with a face constantly covered in sticky, delicious goodness... Priscilla and Kim Addison have a bit more self-control than me and they're building a business that is making a serious impact. After a visit to a Swiss chocolate factory the two sisters learned that Switzerland didn't actually grow any cocoa trees. Ghana did. One of the top growing regions in the world just so happened to be where the two sisters were from. Immediately

When you've been working stand-up stages for over a decade, you get pretty good at landing a joke. If you're Rob Christensen, you get so good that you end up being selected out of a pool of 2,400 applicants to write for Jon Stewart's new TV show. Rob is a born and raised New Yorker and continues to work way through the ranks of the stand-up comedy scene. There is absolute zero doubt as to how he got to where he is today... He is OBSESSED with comedy writing. It's really that simple. He is constantly

To be perfectly honest, I thought I would quit this podcast after a few months... yet here we are 2 years and 100 episode later still going strong. And I couldn't have asked for a more perfect guest to ring in the 100th episode. This week features the incredibly talented, incredibly badass Kait Devir who is a jack of all trades.

I just went back in the archives and discovered that today, September 29th, marks exactly two years to the day since I launched the first episode of Destination Different. What a two years it has been. When I started this thing I was living in my parents' basement. I had no job and had absolutely NO idea what I was doing. We were still living in a pre-pandemic world and life was a whole lot different. Since that first episode I have learned a lot. It's easy to start up a creative project like this

2021/09/22

Some people absolutely despise their random freshman roommates in college. Others become immediate friends and decide to start a sunflower seed company out of their dorm room... Cole Schaefer and Brian Waddick are the latter. The two random roommates at the University of Minnesota realized very quickly that they both shared a love for business and a desire to build something of their own.

It's not often you get to see a 6'8" former Division 1 basketball player up on stage doing comedy. But that's what you get when you go to a show with Alex Dragicevich. Alex first fell in love with the art of comedy when he joined a sketch writing group in college. That new group of friends led him the stage for a few shaky stand-up appearances in Boston. 6 years' worth of material later and Alex is a budding star in the Chicago comedy scene.

2021/09/09

This episode originally appeared in February of 2021 under the titled "Watercolor Dreams." To date it is still one of our most listened to episodes of all-time. "I was in a farmer's market, saw some lady painting watercolors and said to myself 'That doesn't look so hard. I could probably that.'" - Annie Yuen (sort of). Ok, fine. I'm paraphrasing slightly, but that's pretty much how it all kicked off for Annie with her printmaking company, Olive & Orange. She simply took up a love for painting

When Mikey Fowler got hired by Barstool in 2016 they only had 5 podcasts in their network and he was told to "scale it." 4 years later and the media behemoth now has 60+ shows and is routinely in the top 5 most downloaded podcast networks in the world. Sooooo, you could say he scaled it... Along the way, Mikey has had the chance to work with every major talent that has come through the Barstool doors and works directly with Erika Nardini and Dave Portnoy to identify and amplify the voices of the

They say that the key to greatness is being consistently good for a really long time. I am absolutely NOWHERE near greatness levels, not even close. But I do know that every Wednesday a new episode of Destination Different comes out. That means even if I'm tired, or sick, or high off mushrooms thinking a 3-eyed cactus is trying to break into my spaceship... the show goes on. We're in the dog days of summer right now and it feels like Destination Different is in a lull right along with it. This

Who doesn't love chocolate milk? It's creamy. It's chocolate-y. It's delicious. And it's great for recovery. Josh Belinsky had been drinking chocolate milk for all those reasons growing up and right through college, but over the years developed a lactose intolerance and realized that traditional dairy chocolate milk was super high in sugar. There had to be a better way for him to get his favorite beverage. There was. And the answer was Slate Milk. Josh and his co-founder Manny Lubin started Slate

A little Ry3 Mini this week. No guest as I'm gallivanting across the southern United States going to soccer games for my real job (It's true what they say, everything really is bigger in Texas). It got me thinking... I've never really talked about managing a side project with a full-time job on this show. SO many of my guests have started their business or creative projects while also maintaining a full-time gig to pay the bills. And it's so damn impressive. It is a constant balancing act for me

There is a lot wrong with soccer in America, but there aren't many people talking about how to fix the system. That's what Kevin Mejia is doing with Atmosphre Futbol Chat. It is a podcast and YouTube channel centered around giving a voice to American soccer at all levels, from youth to college to MLS to the Men's and Women's National Teams. And there aren't many guys who are more well-connected in the soccer community than Kevin Mejia. He was my teammate in college and seems to know just about

Zack Courts grew up on the back of a motorcycle. He got his first dirt bike at 8-years-old and would zip around his family farm in rural Vermont. During his teenage years he traveled around the country with his dad more or less saying, "I wanna go fast," as he raced bikes competitively for more than a decade. When he realized that becoming a professional motorcycle rider maybe wasn't in the cards, he turned his attention to writing about bikes. A few years and a couple bumps and bruises later, Zack
