Drew Morisey on BLM, Finding the Center, and Crushing YouTube

FLOW with Arman Assadi

I first met Drew Morisey through Clubhouse. We randomly found ourselves talking politics and I immediately noticed and respected how balanced and nuanced his views were. Since then I’ve really enjoyed connecting with Drew and believe he has some very valuable insights to share, so I’m excited to share this episode with you.
Drew is a viral content creator. His first company set out to innovate a new niche on YouTube (rap education) and succeeded. His second major venture introduced entertainment to the blockchain and cryptocurrency space. He is currently spearheading a social media/video team whose credits include Vice News, Kendrick Lamar, Black Eyed Peas, and many more.
