Sometimes it can feel difficult to get creative in your photography. You feel like you have lost your creative spark or urge or mojo...however you choose to describe it!

Luckily for you, I sat down with fashion and portrait photographer Jonny Edward on this episode of The Nerdy Photographer Podcast to discuss overcoming barriers to our creativity, including those self imposed hurdles, so that we can free up some creative space to help others as well.

It's really a great conversation and I hope you enjoy it.

On this episode, I sit down with Jim from the Film Rage Podcast to talk about Dune. Not just the recent film production, or the 1980s David Lynch film, but all iterations of Frank Herbert's science fiction classic.

Why do I love Star Wars so much? More importantly, why do I love some parts of Star Wars more than others?

Seriously, folks, this is a question for the ages. I've been a fan of Star Wars for my entire life...and that's not a short amount of time.

To delve into this question and help me on my quest, Lauren and Matt from Hops Geek News - click here to check out their awesome podcast - come along for the ride, challenging me along the way to rethink my opinions.

Will I change my mind about the prequels? Will I change their minds about The Last Jedi? Will someone tell me why The Book of Boba Fett was The Mandalorian Season 2.5?!?
