The episodes went from bein...
Face it (and with a mask on!) - we’re all doing a LOT of coping these days.
The COVID Pandemic has brought the globe together in near isolation, and now... things are started to loosen up as we start getting out.
While many took on new creative endeavours as the our time inside increased, a lot of us need something now, as we have to face....OTHER PEOPLE AGAIN.
Luckily, there’s no end to Creative Coping exerci...
As we are now starting to open up globally, cinemas return with the dynamic and nostalgic shared experience only a movie theatre can bring.
The combination of image & score can affect us so deeply, it’s no surprise we hold the movie-going experience so dear to our cultures. The creativity derived from the onset of the moving image has been astounding & so extraordinarily influential on how we tell stories.

Welcome to the g’mango show!
We recorded this the day before the Indy 500, a major annual event in our home town of Indianapolis, Indiana.
Especially exciting as fans are able to attend with masks at a percentage of the full capacity.
But MOST EXCITING is that John has a comedy song that is gaining a lot of streaming and airplay and whose story centres around The Indy 500 and a girl named “VENUS”.
We’re hoping this song will b...

Green Skin Mango formed in 1992.
Our music was one of the first shared online music, back in 1992, in the earliest version of online music sharing.
We also got our music online and sold some MP3s.

Welcome to Podcast 13!
Your Everyday Creative Thinking.
My favourite number is 13.
It’s been lucky for me.
But I’m sure a lot of other numbers have been too.
Yet, I choose to focus on 13.
Isn’t that how life is?
Where & what you focus on becomes your perception of life.
When you think your way through daily life, are you fixed in the outcomes?
Creative thought brings a multiverse of possibil...

Trent Reznor. Atticus Ross. Nine Inch Nails.
The epitome of risk and danger in music along with continued growth.
It’s why the eyebrow is raised when you hear the band that wrote “I want to f*** you like an animal” is doing the score for a beautiful film by Pixar Animation.
It’s also why, this year, they are nominated for an Academy Award for this film.
