Reviews

I'm so glad I found this Podcast, it's been entertaining, inspiring and incentive.

The Unmistakable Creative is a goldmine. The interviews are highly structured with great content, intentional questions and vulnerable answers. Out of the several podcasts I listened to, every single person attempted to be transparent and vulnerable about their life story. So beyond being a source of quality content, it is an example of great storytelling. Srinivas Rao allows the interviewee great flexibility and freedom to answer the question in a way that best fits their interruption of the question; there are no fillers or self-driven attachments to the responses. In addition, his voice is calm and genuine. I try my best to share this podcast with everyone. I am grateful that podcasts like this exist because it adds great value to my life.

Was looking for an insightful, motivating podcast and Unmistakable Creative delivered beyond my expectations. Srinivas does an excellent job of picking intriguing guests and asking them the right questions. This has quickly become my favorite podcast and I highly recommend it to everyone - creatives and non-creatives alike.

So glad I found this podcast. So far I've listened to four episodes and I'm looking forward to more. Just finished listening to the Donald Miller interview and is a favorite along with Elle Luna. Thanks Srinivas!

I’ve been listening to this podcast for about a year now, and started off strong by literally listening to every podcast as soon as it was released. I was filled with so much incredibly useful information as I was transitioning/pivoting in my career and I remember specifically listening to this to validate that I was in the right direction. During my transition I honestly didn’t listen to this as much, but I recently began to pick it back up and it’s a continuous path down the rabbit hole of inspiration. I love how Srini lets his guests talk without interjecting and manages to pin point exact topics to focus on after the guest practically brain dumps before our ears. He navigates each conversation methodically and it feels completely natural in the sense that I can picture each interview being done in a setting that feels like home. I’ve shared this podcast with my colleagues and friends and love when I get the random texts asking if I’ve heard the latest (followed by a series of “!?!??!!!”). Keep up the great work, Srini. You and your guests inspire me to be better each day so I can show up as my best self and be an inspiration to others.

Today, like it or not everyone has become content creator. The Unmistakable Podcas is one of the best tools to discover and chart a path to success. Excellent interviews in a simple environment. It's like going back to school with the best teacher I have ever had.

I'm consistently blown away by the stories of the amazing people on this show. There are so many learning lessons and nuggets of wisdom laced through each conversation. This is one of my sources of inspiration when my well gets a little dry.

What if the reality we are living in could be so much better? Srinivas Rao, host of Unmistakable Creative, searches to understand the paradigm shifts thats others have discovered to make their lives fascinating, successful, and most importantly, deeply satisfying. To be a listener of the show, and witness to these interviews, is to receive what I call a real education in the world: the positive re-reprogramming we all deserve. This is why Unmistakable Creative is my favorite show, and my strongest recommendation to others.

It’s not just the guests that Srini is bringing to this podcasts series that “make” the podcasts. Yes, they’re all people who have done incredible things, and yes, they’re all people who have inspiring things to say, and yes, they’re all rockstars in their own right. What makes this particular podcast series stand out is the way in which Srini dials down on the questions. He clearly knows his audience. If someone gives him an answer about, for instance, how to stay motivated after a creative failure, and if that answer is beautiful but not yet spelled out in a way that’s tangible for the audience, he’s going to ask the guest to dial down deeper and offer something that a listener can utilize as an immediate takeaway. I have a decade of experience as a college professor, and this quality of taking information and going beyond just disseminating it, to the next step of making it pro-active and useful, is a rarity in a world of podcasts where questions are obvious, rote, and answers can become canned. There’s a reason why so many high-profile and successful people have come to this podcast, and it has a lot to do with the host and what is obviously an incredible team of people, each bringing her/his creative talents to collectively create a podcast that’s full of integrity, inspiration, and fun.

Hello Srini, I am thankful for your podcast series. I have been inspired a lot over the past year from your interviews. You are a great role model for myself and others. Thank you for giving your time and energy to this project. It means a lot to me. -travis

I listen to Srinivas Rao as soon as he posts a new interview. Inspiring, interesting and I always walk away learning something new. One of the best podcasts to help expand your mind and life!

I first became aware of Srini and Co's podcast when he gave an opening keynote at Podcast Movement 2014. So many podcasts about inreviewing creative people fell short with me, but there was something about his talk that made it clear: "This one will be different." And I was right. Srini isn't just out to scratch someone's back in the hope they scratch his. He's genuinely concerned with what makes people tick and -- it seems -- highlighting that there is struggle involved in creation. I find that comforting when so many other podcasts seem to be more like, "Dream it, and the universe will give it to you..." There's no feel-good fluff, here; just stories about people who love what they do so much that they can't imagine not doing it. Sure, there are interviews with some well-known people, but it's often the stories of people I've never heard of that I love most. As sort of a bookend, I saw Srini moderate a panel at Podcast Movement 2015. It was one of my favorite sessions of the weekend; in large part, because Srini is so good at what he does.

Srini’s interviews go right to the heart of what it means to be creative. His style, questions, and phenomenal roster of guests continue to inspire me each time I listen to the podcast. Well worth your time to give a listen!

I was able to get some earlier episodes downloaded, but there is some problem with the most recent episodes. Don’t think it’s my computer because I’m having no trouble with any of my other podcasts. Could you check into this? Thanks.

The stories told are fantastic. The host does a great job finding great people to interview.

Srini's focus on providing a collective compass (rather than a roadmap) for creating unmistakable greatness is pretty profound. I don't resonate with all of the interviewees, but I do love hearing a person with genuine interest (in "the journey") interviewing successful people willing to share openly what their's has been like. I would be interested in anything produced by Srini, he's clearly a thoughtful, insightful man.

Just discovered Srinivas Rao and totally connected with his style of interviewing. He offers just the right blend of confidence and genuine interest in the guest. I will be catching up on lots of past episodes. Thanks for the great content.

The Unmistakable Creative is my absolute favourite podcast, hands down. It has been for about two years and I’m yet to find anything that comes close. Srini interviews guests that you don’t find on other shows. There’s no tuning in, excited to listen to the latest episode, only to realise that you’ve already heard this guest tell their story a million times on the other shows you listen to. Srini really digs into his guests’ personalities, backgrounds, and lifestyles to find out who they are, how they became the way they are, and how they do the amazing things they do. If you’re interested in people, psychology, lifestyle, or story, you’re in for a treat. I get all my best ideas while listening to this podcast. It’s directly responsible for quite a few of the projects I’ve done over the last couple of years. I also have my best runs when I listen to this podcast. It puts me in the best mood. Someone should do a study to put a figure on how happy The Unmistakable Creative podcast makes its listeners! I’m really not a fangirl type of person, but I come close with this one! P.S. Srini, I am so sorry it has taken me years to write this!

This is one of the best show's I've ever listened to. The level of quality conversation is unmatched. If you are looking to get inspired look no further.

I've become an avid listener of Srinivas Rao's podcast The Unmistakable Creative. What makes the show unique, is Rao's ability to ask thought provoking questions and connect with his guests in a profound way, illuminating their distinct perspective/experience. It is truly a gift to all listeners. Keep up the wonderful work!

Siren brings on really interesting guests, and does a great job drawing them out. Really a must-listen.

I love this podcast and the way Srinivas interviews his guests! I look forward to this show each and every week!

Thank you for the conversation with Michael Grandinetti, it was one of my favorite podcasts.

Really a great program. Very insightful conversations.
