Wicked amazing content
Andy J. Pizza is an amazing inspiration. A voice to look forward to hearing. Thanks for all you are. I cannot afford any more schooling, but I have learned from your podcast that there are other ways to learn about finding my path on this Journey! Cannot wait to meet you someday! Good thing you are in my state!
A+ !!!
Creative Pep Talk is the best! I love listening to it and getting pumped to draw. It has given me a new perspective on the outlook I have for my creative future.
So much love for creative pep talk!
This podcast is jam packed with tips, strategies, words of encouragement, inspiration and movtivation for ALL creatives! I'm a photographer and I find that I can apply most if not all of each episode to my creative career and life. It's honest, it's current & relavent, Andy is a super entertaining speaker and a very talented artist; and he interviews other super inspiring artists too.
One of my favourite podcasts!

STAY PEPPED UP!
After tons of recommendations to give this podcast a listen I finally got started with it this week and I've listened to so many I think Andy's voice is now my inner voice. Andy's enthusiasm and positivity are contagious and it's truly impossible not to feel inspired after listening to him and his fantastic guests. I've found myself laughing out loud at his analogies and ability to connect the most philosophical topics to the latest cartoons his kid's are watching. Always nodding my head in agreement with his brilliant musings. I'm a pepperoni forever now!
Thank you Andy!
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Andy's podcast hit me like a gift from heaven. I just discovered him a few months ago via an interview on Being Boss, where I found his personality and humor to be so appealing. I immediately sampled one of his episodes and WOW I was blown away by the combination of wisdom, enthusiasm, motivation and humor. I felt like he was talking directly to me. As an older person (I'm in my 50's) I'm probably not even in Andy's target audience, but I feel like my age gives me the perspective to know just how right-on Andy's words are. I often feel like if I had had access to this kind of guidance as a young artist, oh what I could have done with my life!!! Some of these episodes I listen to multiple times because there is almost too much to take in, in one listen. I just listened to episode 163 THREE times and now am really clear on my goals for 2018. And I can't wait to get started on the 17 Breakthrough Ideas from episode 165. Thank you Andy, you have changed the course of my creative life!
Genuine Encouragement and Design/Art Love
I absolutely love Andy's podcasts and have been listening for over a year now. His energy and positivity have pushed me to continue exploring new creative paths outside my typical wheelhouse. I put an episode of this on in the background when I'm struggling to start/finish a project and it kicks my butt into gear. More female Illustrators please! ☝️️😍🎨 -Marrin Lee

CPT is my going to lead my 2018
Stumbled on to this show when searching for herding tigers. So far every episode has been inspiring and fun to listen to. My goal for 2018 is to be as inspired as humanly possible and in all the shows I’ve been poking around in I keep coming back to this. Thank you Andy! I shared your show with my entire creative team at fox Home entertainment!

To hear Andy is to love Andy. His excitement for life, art, and encouraging people to level up oozes out like delicious cheese of a pipping hot pizza. This podcast hits home for everyone at some point, no matter the years you've put in.
Level up!
Just discovered this podcast and it’s already made a massive difference to the way I see myself and my creative business; I just moved to the other side of the world and the creative Pep Talk podcast is helping me view myself as a serious illustrator and to dream bigger and level up in my creative career! Thank you for your words Mr Pizza!
Absolutely Amazing.
Always has a message to deliver & does so in the perfect way. When he gets sidetracked its funny, and he does often, but his main point always hits so hard. Must listen!
How to make 2018 your best year....
Andy is one of the most entertaining creatives I’ve heard, with all the passionate teaching, humor and real Real help for aspiring artists of all kind! I hope his listeners spread the word as I am, because his guidance and experienced advice will change lives!!
Easy on the ears
This is a great podcast! It’s all very relatable and easy to digest. Thanks a ton for it
One of my absolute favorite podcasts!
Every time a new episode comes out, it makes my day at work better! So encouraging, inspirational and helpful!
Inspiring!
I love this podcast! Andy often touches on the transcendent experience of the creative process which keeps me ignited and full of wonder. It's lonely being an artist until you are sparked with the endless phenomenal flow that's inside intuition. Thank you Andy - keep up your philosophical findings!
Love the show!
I've been enjoying the show since it was first released. Thanks, Andy!
100% necessary listening for freelancers
Andy is the best art Dad - a little encouraging push when you're stuck or making excuses for not making your best creative work, and a whole heap of great marketing advice that doesn't make you want to go to sleep. I've been listening for over a year and have even started re listening to some of the episodes. It's great to have affirmation that I'm doing some things right, and his guests (as well as the wonderful off-topic monologues) offer a wealth of ideas and inspiration for making great work and staying on track as an artist who also needs to pay bills. Five stars :)
Thanks Andy!
This podcast has been such great addition to my week. Most of the time it feels like you have someone to push out the doubts and reaffirm you what you know in your gut is right. If you need to find strength and confidence as a commercial artist, this is for you!

This podcast came reccomended by a friend and it DID NOT disappoint! Andy J. Pizza breaths life into my creative career from thousands of miles away each and every week. He has a gift of putting all of my abstract thoughts into words as well as bringing reassurance and focus to my creative lifestyle. I have told all of my creative friends and followers to listen to this podcast and I highly reccomend you do the same!!! @deesilkie
Seriously a heckin awesome jam!
I love this podcast so much. As an artist with anxiety and just a bunch of feelings in general, listening to this podcast has helped me gain confidence in myself and my work and how to make work more meaningful to me. If you a creative with a bunch of feels and struggles with them, listen to this podcast. Your ear holes will be rejoicing with happiness and your big heart will be glad you did. Seriously.
Thankful 🙏✨
It’s a mix between practical advice and inspirational epiphanies that gives all shy creatives the courage to start an adventure with excitement rather than fear. Andy J Miller is like the best therapist you’ve ever had! He revives the hope and spirit from the dead ashes of disappointment. I know that sounds a bit dramatic BUT he REALLY offers great advice from personal experience, and allows an alternate perspective to the marketing side of art. His realistic strategies that allows the dreamers to leave the dream world, and bring their magic to planet earth. I’m so thankful for finding this podcast, and hope it sticks around for a long time.
