Julian Dorey Podcast

SOLO POD - Many of you have asked for a podcast episode that talks a bit about my backstory and what my plan is for the show over the long term. So here it is. ~ YouTube FULL EPISODES: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0A-v_DL-h76F75xik8h03Q ~ Show Notes: https://www.trendifier.com/podcastnotes TRENDIFIER Website: https://www.trendifier.com Julian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/julianddorey ~ Beat provided by: https://freebeats.io Music Produced by White Hot

SOLO POD - When the Covid-19 Pandemic rocked the world in March 2020, governments and banks everywhere responded to the economic crisis that followed in the same way they always do: they printed money. As history repeatedly tells us, this is how fiat currencies die. Yet here we are once again. Inflation events like this place cryptocurrency and digital currency front and center. In this episode, Julian ties it all together as he puts the global supply of money into perspective, breaks down exactly what the Fed did in response to the pandemic (as well as what they’ve done in past crises), talks about why crypto has had some branding/marketing problems early on—and, once and for all, explains how Bitcoin *actually* works. ~ YouTube FULL EPISODES: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0A-v_DL-h76F75xik8h03Q ~ Show Notes: https://www.trendifier.com/podcastnotes TRENDIFIER Website: https://www.trendifier.com Julian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/julianddorey ~ Beat provided by: https://freebeats.io Music Produced by White Hot

SOLO POD - In the third and final part of our conversation about influencers, Julian takes us through some examples of the influencers fighting back against the negative stereotypes within the industry, the Gen-Z trends that may point towards a different influencer of the future, and the influencers coming up who actually aren’t really influencers at all. Then, in the second half of the episode, Julian discusses a little known influencer theory, introduced back in 2019 by music executive and Nike athlete, Charlie “Rocket” Jabaley, called, The “I AM YOU” Theory. Charlie’s premise with The “I AM YOU” Theory isn’t just about influencers either. It’s about all of us. ~ YouTube FULL EPISODES: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0A-v_DL-h76F75xik8h03Q ~ Show Notes: https://www.trendifier.com/podcastnotes TRENDIFIER Website: https://www.trendifier.com Julian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/julianddorey ~ Beat provided by: https://freebeats.io Music Produced by White Hot

SOLO POD - Fyre Festival may have been the straw that broke the camel’s back—but even long before Billy McFarland’s Caribbean symphony, the influencer industry had seen clout chasing imposters invade its marketplace. These “fake influencers,” as we’ve come to know them, have undoubtedly damaged the influencer brand. In Part 2 of our 3-Part series on influencer culture, Julian discusses the “clout chasers” in-depth—and breaks down the negative stereotypes that they’ve brought upon the influencer market in the process. While some of it’s sad to see, the many stories and examples of these “fakers” are certainly laugh out loud funny. ~ YouTube FULL EPISODES: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0A-v_DL-h76F75xik8h03Q ~ Show Notes: https://www.trendifier.com/podcastnotes TRENDIFIER Website: https://www.trendifier.com Julian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/julianddorey ~ Beat provided by: https://freebeats.io Music Produced by White Hot

SOLO POD - Becoming an influencer quickly became a modern-day gold rush over the past decade. The earliest adopters had success and then everyone else wanted a piece. Platforms like YouTube & Facebook got the party started—but Instagram quickly became influencer marketing’s main focus. In Part 1 of a 3-Part series on influencer culture, Julian discusses the early origins and evolution of social platforms, the gigantic influencer industry they created, and our "comparison culture" that enabled them. ~ YouTube FULL EPISODES: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0A-v_DL-h76F75xik8h03Q YouTube CLIPS: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChs-BsSX71a_leuqUk7vtDg ~ Show Notes: https://www.trendifier.com/podcastnotes TRENDIFIER Website: https://www.trendifier.com Julian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/julianddorey ~ Beat provided by: https://freebeats.io Music Produced by White Hot

SOLO POD - Why are we so polarized on everything—from politics to pop culture? When did having nuance in our opinions become a problem? The internet is an obvious culprit. But older generations also like to pin the blame on Millennials and Gen-Z—claiming that the younger generations “never experienced struggle.” They’re wrong. On both counts. ~ YouTube FULL EPISODES: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0A-v_DL-h76F75xik8h03Q YouTube CLIPS: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChs-BsSX71a_leuqUk7vtDg ~ Show Notes: https://www.trendifier.com/podcastnotes TRENDIFIER Website: https://www.trendifier.com Julian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/julianddorey ~ Beat provided by: https://freebeats.io Music Produced by White Hot

SOLO POD - Prominent venture capitalist, Kai-Fu Lee, estimates that automation and AI will bring about at least 25% NET job losses over the next two decades. While predicting *exactly* how this would translate across job types in the future is next to impossible—might there be a “mindset” we can all adopt to approach it? In this episode, Julian turns to an unlikely source for inspiration… ~ YouTube FULL EPISODES: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0A-v_DL-h76F75xik8h03Q YouTube CLIPS: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChs-BsSX71a_leuqUk7vtDg ~ Show Notes: https://www.trendifier.com/podcastnotes TRENDIFIER Website: https://www.trendifier.com Julian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/julianddorey ~ Beat provided by: https://freebeats.io Music Produced by White Hot

SOLO POD - What do LeBron James, Jeff Bezos, Domino’s Pizza, Jon Bellion, Bitcoin, and Elon Musk have in common? If this sounds ridiculous, it’s not. Each of them (and others discussed in this episode) are all examples of stars/brands/ideas who have either completely—or at least in some way—opened up their inner-worlds to build “real” relationships and trust with their followers. ~ YouTube FULL EPISODES: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0A-v_DL-h76F75xik8h03Q YouTube CLIPS: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChs-BsSX71a_leuqUk7vtDg ~ Show Notes: https://www.trendifier.com/podcastnotes TRENDIFIER Website: https://www.trendifier.com Julian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/julianddorey ~ Beat provided by: https://freebeats.io Music Produced by White Hot

SOLO POD - Consider this discussion a reckoning for the college system. Despite the astronomical costs and sickening student debt—schools and universities, continue to enroll millions of new students every year. But even though the student population has remained consistent, the underlying anger at a system that’s failed far too many is growing. To close off our 3-part conversation on the state of US colleges—Julian explores how the system built its cultural power, the “business” it has become, trends that threaten it moving forward, and why—despite all its problems that must be fixed--higher education needs to *remain* a critical institution in America. ~ YouTube FULL EPISODES: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0A-v_DL-h76F75xik8h03Q YouTube CLIPS: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChs-BsSX71a_leuqUk7vtDg ~ Show Notes: https://www.trendifier.com/podcastnotes TRENDIFIER Website: https://www.trendifier.com Julian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/julianddorey ~ Beat provided by: https://freebeats.io Music Produced by White Hot

SOLO POD - You’re a 17 or 18-year-old kid. All you want to do is get out of your parents’ house and live it up at college. And it’s not just a get-away either. It’s where you’re supposed to go. After all, you’ve been told over-and-over again—since you could walk and talk—that “you have to get a degree.” So you sign the dotted line on a paper handed to you by some guy in a suit. Terms like “interest rate” and “payment period” don’t mean anything to you at all. And that student debt price tag? $30,000? $50,000? $100,000? You’ll figure that out later...right? The student loans system is flawed to say the least—and it’s not getting any better. In this discussion, Julian deconstructs the problem piece-by-piece. And the results are sobering. ~ YouTube FULL EPISODES: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0A-v_DL-h76F75xik8h03Q YouTube CLIPS: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChs-BsSX71a_leuqUk7vtDg ~ Show Notes: https://www.trendifier.com/podcastnotes TRENDIFIER Website: https://www.trendifier.com Julian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/julianddorey ~ Beat provided by: https://freebeats.io Music Produced by White Hot

SOLO POD - College costs are out-of-control. We know this. But when did the system and its prices start to go wrong? And why did it happen? Enough with the empty one-liners from politicians and social media posts alike. Let’s give it some real context. ~ YouTube FULL EPISODES: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0A-v_DL-h76F75xik8h03Q YouTube CLIPS: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChs-BsSX71a_leuqUk7vtDg ~ Show Notes: https://www.trendifier.com/podcastnotes TRENDIFIER Website: https://www.trendifier.com Julian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/julianddorey ~ Beat provided by: https://freebeats.io Music Produced by White Hot
