Atypical
Naturally, I’ve always been a storyteller, but now it's time for me to let others tell theirs. I believe we can learn both the good and the bad from people’s life experiences. It's why I love reading biographies. With this podcast my aim is to create a digital version of that. Each episode I’ll engage in raw, authentic, and unfiltered conversations with founders, entrepreneurs, game-changers, friends, and many other atypical people who all have fantastic insights to share. So join me on this journey, inspired by those who refuse to settle for the ordinary.

E3: Byron Langley - Lucky breaks, auditions, patience and rediscovering your creative mojo
A chance encounter at a nightclub caused Byron Langley and myself to cross pathways - the rest was history. We both grew up in Durban, South Africa, so it was fantastic to get a real “local” on the show. Byron is incredibly talented. He's a creative all rounder - actor, singer, songwriter and he even knows his way around a set of drums, piano and guitar. A lucky break on Spud, the best selling book, which was converted into a movie brought Byron into the film industry and it's been an interesting ride so far.
In this episode, we delve behind the scenes and offer an in depth look at Byron’s acting and singing/song writing journey - from the audition process, rediscovering your creative mojo to being on set both in front of and behind the camera. I learnt a lot and I’m sure you will too. So sit back, grab some popcorn and enjoy.
