Welcome to the first episode of the Words With Friends podcast! I'm going to be interviewing my friends that I think people can learn a thing or two from on this show. Some music industry folks, some artists, just people who I think are incredible and have something to say about life, careers, and things that we are all experiencing as millennials (I don't even know if i like that word but whatever).

With that being said, Modi Oyewole is one of the co-founders of DC to BC, an event company that most notably throws the Trillectro Music Festival in Washington, DC. We talk about Modi growing up in DC, his growth as a man, and ending up working for Nike in Portland, Oregon.

Some highlights include:

Going to the same private school as Obama's kids
Meeting Ty Dolla Sign's father
Having the first Kid Cudi interview ever and then Kid Cudi hating him
Trillectro and starting a music festival from scratch
Ups and downs of social media
His new job at Nike
