Why DJ's FAIL in Miami - Benjamin Lloyd

This week on The Process, I’m joined by Benjamin Lloyd, one of Miami’s most promising up and coming DJs making serious waves in the scene. Ben has already played legendary venues like LIV, opened for major acts including John Summit, and founded his own record label, Hologram. Beyond the booth, he’s built his own events from the ground up successfully bringing out crowds of thousands of people and proving he understands both the music and the business behind it. We break down his rise in Miami, what it takes to stand out as a DJ right now, and how he’s building something bigger than just shows. Welcome to The Process: Benjamin Lloyd.

How IM Shmacked Took Over College Media

This episode is wild. I sat down with Yofray Fray, the founder of IM Shmacked, to break down the real story behind building the largest college media company in the country. We get into everything—from navigating an FBI investigation, to scaling chaos into a legitimate media empire, to the mistakes, pressure, and moments most founders never talk about publicly. This is a raw conversation about risk, resilience, and what it actually takes to build something massive when the odds (and the spotlight) are against you. If you’re an entrepreneur, creator, or anyone who’s ever felt like the system was stacked against them, this episode will hit. No fluff. Just lessons, scars, and real game from someone who lived it.

2026 lock tf in

I break down why this project mattered to me, what was happening behind the scenes while everything felt stuck, and how a lot of the “bad” moments I was frustrated by ended up being the exact reason things worked out the way they did. We talk about patience without passivity—how waiting doesn’t mean doing nothing, and how getting bitter, panicked, or stuck in your own head is usually what keeps people from leveling up. A lot of the stuff you think is going wrong is actually setting you up… you just don’t see it yet. And yeah—we also talk about discipline, ownership, and why at some point you have to stop feeling sorry for yourself, write your goals down, and actually execute on them. No manifesting, no excuses, no hiding. If you’re in a season where things feel slow, unfair, or confusing—or you know you’ve been bullshitting your own potential—this one’s for you. While You Waited is out now.

help me.. Idk what to do next

This week’s episode gets real. I talk about that weird end-of-year feeling where you’ve done a lot — music, podcasts, comedy, content — but still don’t know exactly what the next chapter should look like. I break down my Spotify Wrapped, reflect on the wins, and get honest about what’s next for 2026. It’s been a wild ride this year, and I want to hear from you — what do you want to see more of next year? Music? Podcasts? Funny stuff? Let’s figure it out together.

Jan Koum made 20 BILLION dollars from Whats App

In this episode, Matt dives into the story of Jan Koum — the Ukrainian immigrant who went from living on food stamps to selling WhatsApp for billions. It’s a masterclass in persistence, vision, and betting on yourself when no one else believes. Matt breaks down what made Koum different, why simplicity beats hype, and how starting with nothing can actually be your biggest advantage. It’s not just about tech — it’s about mindset. How you keep pushing when you’re broke, how you see opportunity when others see struggle, and how to make it happen even when your circumstances say otherwise. If you’ve ever felt like you’re grinding in silence, this one’s for you.
