Episode notes

There are people who live in Austin, people who build things in Austin, and then there are people whose fingerprints seem to be all over the city. James Moody is one of those people.

The creative director, entrepreneur, co-founder of Guerilla Suit and owner of Mohawk has had a hand in everything from Fun Fun Fun Fest and ACL Live to Uptown Sports Club, The Albert Hotel, Pearl Beer, Rambler, The Standard Austin and, of course, Hot Luck Festival.

James joins Told Y’all to talk about how a curious mind unlocked a world of experiences for a growing city — and how that curiosity continues to shape what he builds next. We get into Hot Luck, Mohawk, fatherhood, the business of “cool,” building things people actually care about, and what makes something feel authentically Austin.
