What do you do to get under the layer to really get down to those lower levels? Is it just follow-up questions, mindset, worldview, and how that works for you? How'd you get this job anyway? What are things like around here? What did your boss do before they were your boss? Wow did you end up with this job? Why are questions such a big part of This is Strategy? If you had to charge ten times as much as you charge now, what would you do differently? If it had to be free, what would you do differently? Who's it for, and what's it for? What is the change we seek to make? How did you choose the questions for The Strategy Deck? How big is our circle of us? How many people do I care about? Is the change we're making contagious? Are there other ways to gamify the use of questions? Any other thoughts on how questions might be gamified? How do we play games with other people where we're aware of what it would be for them to win and for us to win? What is it that you're challenged by? What is it that you want to share? What is it that you're afraid of? If there isn't a change, then why are we wasting our time? Can you define tension? What kind of haircut do you want? How long has it been since your last haircut? How might one think about intentionally creating that question? What factors should someone think about as they use questions to create tension? How was school today? What is the kind of interaction I'm hoping for over time? How do I ask a different sort of question that over time will be answered with how was school today? Were there any easy questions on your math homework? Did anything good happen at school today? What tension am I here to create? What wrong questions continue to be asked? What temperature is it outside? When the person you could have been meets the person you are becoming, is it going to be a cause for celebration or heartbreak? What are the questions we're going to ask each other? What was life like at the dinner table when you were growing up? What are we really trying to accomplish? How do you have this cogent two sentence explanation of what you do? How many clicks can we get per visit? What would happen if there was a webpage that was designed to get you to leave? What were the questions that were being asked by people in authority at Yahoo in 1999? How did the stock do today? Is anything broken? What can you do today that will make the stock go up tomorrow? What are risks worth taking? What are we doing that might not work but that supports our mission? What was the last thing you did that didn't work, and what did we learn from it? What have we done to so delight our core customers that they're telling other people? How has your international circle informed your life of questions? What do I believe that other people don't believe? What do I see that other people don't see? What do I take for granted that other people don't take for granted? What would blank do? What would Bob do? What would Jill do? What would Susan do? What happened to them? What system are they in that made them decide that that was the right thing to do? And then how do we change the system? How given the state of the world, do you manage to continue to care as much as you do? Do you walk to school or take your lunch? If you all can only care if things are going well, then what does that mean about caring? Should I have spent the last 50 years curled up in a ball? How do we go to the foundation and create community action?…

1 The Ugly Truth About How AI Will Replace Graphic Designers – Are You Safe or Helping It Take Your Job? 49:56
AI is already replacing some Graphic Designers— and if you’re not paying attention, you could be next. The scary part? Most Graphic Designers are making it easy for AI to take their place. Whether it’s by ignoring it, misusing it, or pretending it’s not happening, too many are sleepwalking straight into irrelevance. Meanwhile, the smartest Graphic Designers are flipping the script —using AI to work faster, think bigger, and dominate the industry. The question is: Are you falling behind, or are you using AI to your advantage? In this episode of The Angry Designer , we rip apart the hype and lay out the brutal truth — who AI is actually replacing in graphic design. You'll discover: The two types of AI tools —one that makes you unstoppable , the other that makes you obsolete How to use AI to become an absolute weapon in design instead of a victim of automation The worst mistakes Graphic Designers are making with AI that are costing them their future If you’re ignoring AI, you’re making a mistake. If you’re using it the wrong way, you’re making a bigger mistake. This episode is your wake-up call—before it’s too late.

Most Graphic Designers LOOK—but the best Graphic Designers SEE OPPORTUNITIES. Pros see patterns, strategies, and opportunities. They understand why things work—not just how they look. Most designers are stuck in surface-level thinking , obsessing over aesthetics while missing the bigger picture. If you’re only focused on making things look good, you’ll never break out of the ‘just a designer’ trap —stuck doing low-level work while other designers move ahead. The real game-changers in Graphic Design don’t just create—they SEE OPPORTUNITIES. In this episode of The Angry Designer , we’re exposing the #1 skill that separates struggling designers from those who land the best clients, bigger paychecks, and creative freedom—seeing opportunities where others don’t. We’re breaking down 10 ways to SEE the world like a top designer , where you’ll discover: 🔥 How to spot hidden opportunities that most designers ignore 🔥 Why great design actually works (not just how to make things pretty) 🔥 How to train your eye to think like a strategist, not just a pixel pusher If you want to break free from being just another Graphic Designer and start seeing the world like a pro , this episode is your wake-up call. 👉 WATCH NOW on YouTube or LISTEN on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your fix.

Graphic designers are taught to create , not sell —and that’s exactly why so many talented designers stay broke. The harsh reality? Talent alone won’t make you successful. The industry is full of insanely skilled designers who struggle to make ends meet while less talented ones cash in—because they get it: design is a business. And no one understood that better than Andy Warhol. Warhol didn’t just create art—he built a brand, scaled his work, and turned creativity into cold, hard cash (while actually enjoying the ride). While traditional artists clung to their so-called “purity,” Warhol mass-produced art in his legendary Factory, treating his career like an enterprise . And guess what? It worked. In this episode of The Angry Designer, we tear into: The 4 Warhol strategies designers can steal to scale, market, and sell better Why branding yourself is just as important as the work you create The myth of originality—and why Warhol proved it doesn’t matter It’s time to stop thinking like a starving artist and start thinking like a creative entrepreneur . If you’re sick of being overlooked while mediocre designers make bank, this is the episode for you. Hit play and start building your Warhol-level empire.
