The guest today likes to create magic and bring that magic to music. Chris Barton, the Founder of Shazam, shares the magic behind Shazam and how he overcame the naysayers who say his idea to identify music out of thin air is impossible. Our brain is wired in a certain way due to societal pressures and the world we work in, so Chris implores everyone to start from zero by resettling the way our brain works. He discusses the five methods of starting from zero and dives deep into the concept of creative persistence. Tune in to this episode to know what he means by that!
