Episode 154: Kevin Smith

September 27, 2021 By Dan Schawbel • Leave a Comment • Podcasts

My guest today is filmmaker, actor and author, Kevin Smith. Kevin rose to prominence after writing, directing, co-producing, and acting in Clerks. Since then, he’s appeared in films like Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. More recently, he developed Masters of the Universe: Revelation for Netflix, released his book “Kevin Smith’s Secret Stash” and is working on Clerks 3. Kevin and I talk about our love for comics, NFTs, and how both his father’s job and heart attack has changed his life during this podcast episode. 

The 5 questions I ask in this episode:

  1. How did witnessing your father despising his post office job in your childhood impact your career and life decisions?
  2. How did you originally get into comics and how did they inspire all of your productions and projects ever since?
  3. When writing your book “Kevin Smith’s Secret Stash” what are you most proud of and what would you have changed about your life story?
  4. How did having a height attack, and losing 50 pounds, change your outlook in life?
  5. What’s your best piece of career advice?
