Zusammenfassung & Show Notes

In this episode, you’ll hear a super fun and down-to-earth conversation between two Bachelor of Arts grads 🎓😄. No fancy academic talk here—just real talk about the vertical content world, packed with charm and humor 💬✨.
During what I like to call a “waffle talk” 🧇 (okay… I was the only one actually eating waffles), Buddy shares how he’s been trying to bring more acting into his life alongside his full-time job 🎭💼.
We also chat about which sport verticals he’d totally rock 🏋️‍♂️🤸‍♂️ and why he thinks he’s absolutely not the guy for a basketball vertical 🏀😂.
He tells me what he’s grateful for on set 🎥🙏, what he’d love to see evolve in the vertical world 🌍📱, and what it’s like to know both sides of the production business 🎬🔄.
Why his mom can’t watch some of his films/verticals 🙈, why Buddy feels like he’s in a real-life Forrest Gump moment in this episode 🏃‍♂️🍫, and what he expects when he plays my brother in a vertical 🤦‍♂️🎬 — you’ll hear all that and more exclusively in this episode!
