Episode 17 - It Boils Down to Passion with Giaco Whatever

You might know him from the Maker Knife, the Kinetic Driver, or the Polycalendar. Maybe you've been watching his cinematic maker videos for years. No matter how you came across Giaco, one thing is clear - his passion, creativity and innovation shine through in everything that he does.  In this episode, we dive into Giaco's story, how years spent working in the Internet space created a need to make something he could touch, how he transitioned from creating viral videos to creating whatever he likes, his philosophies on content creation and product development, lessons learned from making YouTube videos, and the work that goes on behind the scenes.
