Always brightens my days
Hi! Just wanted to say I started listening to this podcast a couple of weeks ago. A friend who i went to college with recommended it and i can say with all honesty that i look forward to it everyday. I’ve dealt with a huge creative block for a while. I have ideas all the time they just never get done and this podcast has been getting out there more. Very encouraging, resourceful and just silly. I love it and i hope you give it a chance.

Brilliant!
This podcast is something so positively infectious and interesting for all the creatives out there... I can't really describe how great and catchy it is! From my point of view: very versatile, funny, amazingly full of informations and interesting strategies and ideas, wide variety of topics, absolutely kind of a mind-shifting thing, all in all, simply brilliant work. Thank you mr. Andy J. Pizza for the time, knowledge and effort! :)

Love him, but...
This guy is smart and funny and understands what it is to be an artist. But, please stop promoting Astropad! I'm one of many who had to give it one star because it hangs up Photoshop and doesn't work.

Exactly What I Need
This podcast is the perfect thing to listen to if you're in a creative career, or have a creative side hustle. I am a graphic designer and illustrator and this podcast (which is super fun, quirky and entertaining) is full of practical advise disguised in battles and missions and magic. It has helped me so much to go after my passion and not give up on my dream of becoming a successful illustrator and graphic designer to become a braista (though that still sounds fun). Don't give up, people. Listen to Dr. Pizza and learn. Get inspired. Get motivated! Fight your battle, level up, go on the journey, beat the villian, succeed. Go do it!

The best resource for creatives of any kind
This podcast has given me more direction, encouragement and AHA! moments than I can count. I’m not exaggerating when I tell you these talks have slowly and surely changed my life. A great place to start is the series that starts on episode 170. Enjoy!

My Savior
I recently discovered this podcast and I am in love. It is just what the doctor ordered. I am a long-time creative (painter and visual artist of 20 years) who is now attempting to bust into the graphic design and professional illustration world. I'm struggling to find my identity, create a name for myself and make it all happen --- Listening to Andy talk about all the issues that are meaningful and pertinent to a creative career and lifestyle is just what I needed. I almost cry every episode because it feels like he's speaking directly to me and he is so encouraging. It is just that - a Pep Talk. Such great advice. You rock Andy! Keep it up! I love listening to your podcast while I'm illustrating. You're doing great work and I want you that someone out there GREATLY identifies with all you discuss and feels encouraged and emboldened because of it. Thank you thank you thank you!!!

Uh, just the best.
Creative Pep talk is so amazing, I've been working as an illustrator for a short while and it's really fantastic to have this lovely podcast to snap on when I'm feeling stuck or need fresh ideas and inspiration. I recommend it to all of my friends and it's just so nice to hear someone diving into the financial/business realities AND inner workings/metaphysical values of art and illustration.

Freelancers & small biz owner
I love this podcast- it speaks exactly to the niche that is creative design based business. As a freelance graphic designer and a stationery business owner, this podcast TRULY is a pep talk!
I listened to a ton of podcasts and this is the best for creative business advice. It’s nice to hear the struggles and feel like “I’m not alone” when it comes to the struggling artist career ladder. I love when people are real and down to earth. I don’t like podcasts that sugar coat the story- and Andy doesn’t do that at all- which I love!

Creative juices Flowing
I just listened to How to Grow your audience and I feel like I’m ready to hit the ground running. Andy equipped me me with the tools and questions that I need to ask myself in order to continue growing my audience for my podcast or my future audience as a creator. I can’t wait to listen to the next episode.

Cringeworthy Awesomeness
It's true - there are cringeworthy moments when the show host, *HiAndy* display's of geekiness are almost too much, but then you know he's laughing at himself too, and it's all ok because it's very very authentic. Andy is fantastic as creating metaphors, visualization and stories to get his points across that really make you understand and remember. Been a long time fan and continue to download - keep it up Mr Pizza!

Daily Pep Talk
The creative pep talk is always on when I am doing my work.
Every Podcast is a constant pep talk, something we all need as creatives. I like interviews the most. This podcast was recommended by my friend and I want to do the same here.
Lisen, enjoy, work hard and stay pep up with this podcast.

Amazing actionable creative insights!
The host is hilarious and really inspiring! It’s a super fun podcast and it also helps you take consistent action in your life, so it’s pretty perfect. He’s SUPER jazzed and it can feel a little much at the beginning but it will quickly become your favorite part about it.
This is a great podcast for anyone wanting to do great creative work, and be paid for it, whether or not you’re in the arts.

I wish I could be Andy’s bud
Firstly, Andy’s Mission is a noble one. You can tell this podcast was born from a sincere and burning desire to help people who are going where he’s been. What’s amazing is it is as unique and refreshing in execution as it is in concept; each time I listen I feel he has said the exact thing to keep me motivated and moving forward as a creative professional.
Next- He does an impressive job generalizing in a way that makes his pep talks apply to all kinds of pepperonis. (what is the plural of pepperoni btw?)
Lastly: I’m not sure if it has something to do with being the same age as Andy and therefore sharing the same childhood zeitgeist, but I could listen to him talk about anything. All day. His humor and unedited stream of consciousness are so enjoyable. I regularly lol while listening.
And another thing! ☝🏼
I’m so stoked for his blossoming speaking career. Andy, please make sure your world tour stops in San Diego !
XO,
Bree
