    022 — 'Owe' Canada // Learning from Montreal

    Montreal's Olympic Stadium is often considered the most poorly managed construction project ever. What started as a $140 million project ballooned to over $3 billion. Every moment of this stadium's 50-year legacy is laced with failure. 
     
    This episode explores how the stadium went off the rails and what we can learn from it.

    Internet fame is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, having a large audience opens doors and builds influence. On the other, it can also become a burden and warp everything around you. In this episode, Christian Watson of 1924us sat down with host Will Hall to discuss navigating success early on, the evolution of his studio, and the virtues of finding your creative voice.
