Elias and Sean share mood boards to convey what they hope to create in “Breadcrumbs 2.0” and Sean experiments with audio clips for the same purpose. Elias has a confession to make.

Elias and Sean watch and discuss a TED Talk about creativity, the addiction to getting attention, and focusing on the things that matter.

Elias and Sean continue the discussion about the future of Breadcrumbs—considering the limits of what they could create, the cornerstone of a new show, and the idea of a structural framework as a podcast’s premise.

Sean queries Elias about his trip to the German coast.

Elias and Sean talk about things being like Legos and then talk through the common building blocks of podcasts—all to set up discussion about the future of the show.
