Great!
This is a great podcast, the only thing I don’t like is that sometimes Andy’s voice sounds like a church preacher, and I know this is totally influenced by his research on these people. Apart from that I love this podcast 💕
Episode 324 was hilarious!
This episode with Amy and Jen Hood had me laughing the whole time. Great interview!
Insane amount of tips on how to unleash your creativity
It doesn’t matter what kind of creative stuff you do, this podcast will be beneficial to you 100%. I have never heard or read about things Andy talks about here, he gives so many unique and original tips on creativity that it blows my mind every single episode. I literally sit with a notebook and a pen and write everything down as if on a lecture. Andy’s content is super educational and entertaining to listen to because he offers loads of analogies that are very easy to understand and you can relate. I learned from him more that at art school. Awesome.
Sage Wisdom
I can apply Andy’s honest and straightforward suggestions /advice/knowledge and expertise to nearly any aspect of my life. I can’t count how many times this podcast has helped me through a personal or professional struggle. I freakin love Andy... and of course, Pizza! Thank You for your service and meaty content! (said the vegetarian). You’re a true humanitarian !
Who doesn’t like pizza?!
Just the kick in the pants I needed ..Andy’s energy and honesty really resonated with me ,especially during these challenging times …love the podcast you will too!
ADHD creative, I LOVE WHERE THE PODCAST IS GOING
Been listening for a few years now, and Andy is starting to really let his woo woo flag fly. A huge part of my creative process is leaning hard into the spiritual side of art, through the lenses of faith, destiny, and interconnectedness. Dr. Pizza is blending that so well with practical advice and vulnerability, and it gets me fired up!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Andy, you're letting the spiritual dawgs out and it's really getting the job done, keep on keeping on
Thank you Andy!
I recently started this podcast from the start (of the available eps on apple podcasts) and it’s the most helpful, positive force in my life! It gives me everything art school didn’t! Andy’s brain, the way he weaves in analogies, stories etc is so innovative and inspiring. Sometimes I think... where is he going with this one? And when he brings it back it blows my mind! Fantastic ! As an artist on her mid 20s trying to plug away at this ol creative life, I can’t recommend anything more. I listen in my studio while I draw and it’s like having a very sweet, funny mentor in the room! Thank you Andy!!!
There's more than one benefit to listening to Andy J
I found this podcast via the art work but now I listen every week, catching up on old episodes as I can. Andy has helped me navigate my creative journey with compassion, humour and insight. He also got me all the way through a Couch to 5K with his enthusiasm and frequent tangents. Thanks Andy, you're supporting people in more ways than you know...and please keep up the good work so I can get to 10K next.
New listener looking for older episodes
I love the 2 episodes I’ve listened to so far but I can’t find any episodes before #200 on apple podcasts and I even went to the website but I’m in BFE Arkansas where even the premium WiFi is slow AF, lol, and I couldn’t scroll and load enough to find any before getting frustrated and I just like to listen to all episodes in order okay? I swear I’m not a freak, lol… in the trailer even recommend some that are before number 200 and so I feel like I need to listen to those and I saw on the website that Apple podcast was the preferred podcast app so thank you
Pizza with extra muse
Thank you so much for all you do. I listen to your podcast every time I have artist block. I’ve laughed and cried with you. I pre ordered two books to support you! To everyone else reading, I HIGHLY recommend this podcast.

Such an inspiring, real show. Thanks Andy pizza.
Where are these episodes?
I was really enjoying your series on building a creative career, but now the episodes are missing? Is this an issue with apple podcast? Or have they just been removed? I like the podcast, but would have preferred to finish the creative career series before moving into other episodes.
I love Andy J!!
Thank you Andy for always being positive when I am ready to give up on my dream! I am so grateful to have found your show! I have been listening for over a year and have learned so much to help my inner artist grow and thrive!
Best Motivation ever!
Please listen to this Podcast guys! I started listening to Andy Pizza last year 2020, when the whole COVID situation just started and I decided to change my life. This is an amazing podcast, Andy is not only very funny (every episode he makes me laugh), but he’s so smart, he interviews also a lot of inspiring people and has very interesting and deep topics every time! Im an artist who decided to finally stop being afraid and follow my dream of being a children Illustrator. Andy motivated me hugely and I worked on my portfolio! I created side quests for my self and reached out to art agencies finally this year! I got an amazing response and that made me so proud of my self. Thank you Andy! you are a great inspiration, not only your art is amazing but everything you bring in! My favorite podcast for sure!
My Favourite Podcast
I have been listening to The Creative Pep Talk for a few years now. It is hands down my favourite podcast. Andy J Pizza's personality is infectious. He always puts a smile on my face and makes me laugh. His knowledge of creative motivaton is extremely powerful. His insights and advice have changed my outlook on my creative life. I also highly recommend checking out his calsses on Skillshare, they helped me find my style. So happy you are in the world Andy! Keep up the good work. x
