So fun And So full of insight
I love Andy’s sense of humor and how he uses it to deliver such helpful and uplifting ideas! So good I always look forward to listening! Keep it up!
Better than therapy!
Thank you so much for you podcast! It helped me letting go my old job and going into my new. I started working as an abstract painter and illustrator now and living my dream! I am finally free and doing what fullfills my heart and soul. It is because of you giving me a pep talk every week! Better than therapy or any coaching! You are the best! Thank you and keep up the good work Kiss from Germany/Hamburg
Stormy Creative Mind

Your thoughts are really worth spreading and I rarely heard them from others in this clear definition. Stay pepped up !!! Love it !
My university fine art teachers should listen to this 🤯
Seriously, this podcast brought so much insight. I often catch myself thinking all those years in the academic world and nothing like this show helped me focused on what was important in my practice. Not saying fine art university are crap, just mind blown by what this podcast can bring to creative minds looking for a home. Keeep it uppp❤️✨
The only podcast I binge listen!
I don‘t normally listen to podcasts, but I am a huge huge fan of it. I love to binge listen it while I draw and the content is of such a high value that I sometimes listen episodes more than once. Every creative needs this podcast! (And I love the energy of Andy, something I can really relate to)
My favorite podcast (and I listen to a lot of podcasts)
So much more than a pep talk. Andy brings a level of energy and experience to each episode which makes this show equally entertaining and insightful. His metaphors and insights have helped shed light onto issues i’ve faced in my own career. Excited to hear more!
Love from The Land Of Aus!
I just discovered this podcast last year, and it has changed my life for the better! I am now an emerging artist and pursuing my goals with more confidence than I ever thought possible. I have autism, and Andy 100% supports and encourages everyone to be themselves - the more weirdness the better! Thankyou for supporting neurological diversity and inspiring all creatives to be exactly who they were meant to be. Your advice is practical and honest and this podcast is absolute gold mate. Love from Australia!
LEGIT!
This is one of my top podcasts. Great source of encouragement and advice for the self-employed creative. Also VERY FUNNY. Full marks!
Creative Fuel
One of the most inspiring and motivational podcasts I’ve ever had the pleasure of listening to. Thank you to Andy J. Pizza for being the catalyst to so much inspiration, positivity and productivity - this podcast has helped shift my entire creative career into overdrive! I absolutely recommend The Creative Pep Talk to anyone and everyone I can. It is a total game changer. You’re the man, Andy! Thank you.
CPT is my synaesthetic leap!
Andy J. Pizza is my goto podcaster for connecting with my creative energy and letting the work flow. Andy speaks honestly about the importance of doing the work and not worrying about perfection or results. Andy offers best practices for letting go of rejection or judgment and breaking through to the other side of embracing the journey and learning as you go. Listen while you work! You won’t regret it!
Favourite podcast
I discovered this podcast around a year ago and have since been looking forward to each new episode. Andy never fails to provide me (an aspiring artist) with inspiration, motivation, sound advice, a good laugh...And in these times even hope. It’s a six star podcast to me.
Genuine Quality
I have been listening to Creative Pep Talk since 2015 I believe. It was the very first podcast I listened to. Andy is an genuine breath of fresh air. It is clear that he carefully curates his podcasts for the audience to gain valuable creative business content every episode. He wants his audience to succeed. There are a lot of podcasts out there, if you are a creative, this one is a must listen.
The podcast that keeps me going
As someone who is (was) supposed to graduate in May and dive deep in the creative industry this podcast is what motivates me, gives me hope, keeps me realistic, helps me find the things that I’m good at and that I want to work on. I love that every week Andy is talking to me and helping me brace myself for the real world, thank you so much for showing up!! I recommend this podcast to all my friends and I recommend it to whoever is reading this!
I really appreciate you!
I love that Andy J Pizza is personal, inspiration and professional as his pod cast comes from the heart! Thank you for helping us all!
Creative Pep Talk
Andy J Pizza is brilliant, funny, perceptive, authentic, pragmatic and oh, so creative! His ability to iterate is precious. This podcast is a port in the storm - every episode, every time 🌎🎧🌎
Amazingly inspirational
One of my all time favourites I love the perfect balance of real world advise and soul touching creativity inspiration! Big thanks for your consistency and high level of content! /Pontus Arvåsen, Gothenburg Sweden
AMAZING!
This podcast has it all: it's entertaining, it's helpful, it's authentic and funny and it hase beautiful cover art! Andy is doing a great job and I'm so grateful for his work!
Generous Insight
Usually I listen to podcasts for the interviews; this is one of the few I listen to just to hear Andy’s ideas. Being ADHD he has a lot of them. Lots of valuable tips on how to focus, how to find inspiration, how to be ok with yourself. Two thumbs up 👍 👍
This is legit
It took me a few episodes to realize or decide that this person is the real deal. Andy j pizza (if that’s you’re real name?) is sincere and excited and eager to share. Andy has the gift of gab. I’m a creative but not trying to “make it” or have a creative career or business, and yet I find this podcast so inspiring! I guess it’s a self help podcast, and it’s the first one I’ve ever jived with. Sometimes I wonder if andy really loves the sponsors... it certainly seems that way... and so, great!
Shoulder Angel
I’m taking the plunge, listening to that fire alarm beeping, saying “f*-it I’m doing this”, whatever we want to call it... I’m going to commit to the creativity inside me screaming to get out! It’s early days and the negative voices keep creeping in. Lots of different road signs on the path (sabotage station is a favorite) try and lure me back to “safety/prison” but amongst that crap, I found THIS podcast. This podcast is my shoulder angel!!! I hit play when the voices get loud and I bypass those road signs and keep keeping on! Thank YOU!!!!!!
Inspiring
I’ve been a long-time listener of CPT. This podcast is one of my BIGGEST inspirations to my own creative wor
Just add Andy! Instant Creative Community
I’m addicted! I’m trying hard to reconnect with the artist inside and I find this podcast a truly indispensable part of my quest. Thank you for all the “pep” and brilliant ideas. You are also one of the very few people out there who truly make me LOL. LOL.
Very entertaining in crazy way
Don’t let this guy go. Very inspiring!
My favorite Podcast!
This podcast has been a LIFESAVER. After graduating college and moving out of LA to a rural city, my artistic motivation just died - along with my support system. While I haven’t been able to create the same community I used to have, this podcast kept my head in the right space and kept me moving ahead. Andy’s positivity is absolutely infectious and yet he is such a realist and provides REAL LIFE ADVICE for creatives. I’m so thankful for his consistency and encouragement, while also speaking the hard truth. I HIGHLY recommend this show
