This episode is one of my favorite I've ever done. Jamie Foxx
(@iamjamiefoxx) is an Academy Award-winning actor, a Grammy
Award-winning musician, and a famous standup and improv comedian.
He is, without a doubt, the most consummate performer and
entertainer I have ever met. In the 2.5 hours we spent
together in his home studio, he blew my mind. We cover a TON in
this wide-ranging episode, including many never-before-heard
stories. Here's just a tiny sample of what you'll hear:
Jamie's workout routine Jamie's origin story -- how he used $400
to match a $1,000,000 party thrown by Puff Daddy;
building up his network with Kanye, Jay Z, and Pharrell;
expanding his fan base; and bombing horribly at the beginning.
What he learned during the magic of In Living Color Jamie playing
live music throughout our interview. Impersonations (and
lessons learned from many of the following) -- Quincy Jones, Ed
Sheeran, Ray Charles, Jimmy Carter, Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan,
Bill Cosby, Doc Rivers, Kermit the Frog, Sammy Davis, Jr., LeBron
James, Bill Clinton, Tamara Rawitt, Shawn Wayans, Jim Carrey,
Oprah Winfrey, Norman Lear, Mike Tyson, and others. The key
skills Jamie learned from his grandmother. Jamie's parenting
style. And much, much more... For all of the show notes and links
