Ep. 222 | Sean Cain (Blackbeard)

Sean Cain is a self-described “creative person” but you might know him as Blackbeard. Cain visits the show to share just some of the cars you’ve seen on the track that he designed; the reason behind branding himself as Blackbeard; how he went from industrial design to the race car business; social media being the driving force behind business; how a concept gets off the ground; things Cain has to take into consideration and work around with a design; the nerves going from a render to real life car; trying to have up-to-date templates; how long it takes from concept to completion; how many concepts need to be submitted; if there's any loss over the ones that don’t see the light of day; the hardest thing about the job; not getting burnt out and being repetitive; how often Cain gets to see his work at the track; if there are other designs besides race cars; if there is something out there Cain hasn’t designed that he’d like to.
