Lab Sixty Three
Lab Sixty Three is a podcast about identity, creativity, and the stories that make people who they are.
Each episode shines a light on interesting individuals - artists, makers, thinkers, entrepreneurs, and everyday people doing things their own way.
Through relaxed conversations, we explore the moments that shaped them, the ideas they live by, the work they care about, and the parts of their story that usually stay behind the scenes.
Some episodes come from Spotlight Days - immersive sessions where we document someone’s craft, creativity, and perspective through film, photography, and conversation.
Alongside the guest episodes, I also share solo episodes - personal reflections, experiences, lessons, and ideas on identity, confidence, and what makes me tick.
This isn’t about polished personas or highlight reels.
It’s about real people, real stories, and the identity behind the work.
If you’re curious about what drives people, how they think, and how they carve their own path in the world - you’ll feel at home here.

12. The gap: 18 vs 40 with James Glover
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What’s the real difference between an 18-year-old and a 40-year-old?
It’s not just money, sleep, or responsibility. It’s what life feels like when you’ve got nothing to lose… versus when people rely on you.
In this episode I sit down with James Glover (18) and we get into the gap between those two worlds — how an 18-year-old sees the future, why everything feels possible, and how quickly that changes once you’ve got bills, pressure, and kids in the mix.
We talk about:
- how your decision-making changes when you become a dad
- why “I’ll do it later” turns into years
- the difference between freedom and responsibility
- what younger men get right (that older men forget)
- what older men know (that younger men can’t see yet)
If you’ve ever looked at your life and thought, how did it get this heavy? — you’re going to enjoy this one.
