Xe podcast

Real conversations.
Different worlds.

A podcast about what it actually takes to build a creative life — across disciplines, across borders, across every stage of the journey.

Concept

About the show

Every episode is a sit-down with a working creative — a photographer, a filmmaker, a designer, a writer, a sculptor — someone who made a life out of making things. The conversations are raw, unfiltered, and honest about the parts that usually get edited out.

Emerging voices. Established careers. The same questions. Surprisingly different answers.

Produced in Brandon, Manitoba. Distributed everywhere.

questions

What we talk about

The student-to-professional gap

How do you go from making work for grades to making work for a living? What actually changes — and what catches you off guard?

The side hustle reality

What does it look like to build something on the side while keeping everything else from falling apart?

Identity and creative voice

Where does your work come from? How do you stay connected to it when the industry pulls in a different direction?

Emerging vs. established

What do early-career and veteran creatives have in common? What separates them? And what does one generation owe the other?
