What’s up, Rock Nation! Today we sit down with none other than Gary Vee – the king of content, CEO of Vayner Media - a $365M agency, and one of the most iconic voices in the creator economy.

In this episode, Gary breaks down exactly how to win on social media in 2025 - from why organic content is the lifeblood of any brand, to how creators should think about attention, brand vs sales, and why most people are one piece of content away from changing their life.

He also shares how he scaled VaynerMedia from nothing, why content volume beats perfection, and how humility became his greatest superpower in business. We go deep on platform strategy, AI influencers, creating at scale, and why 22 to 30 is your time to go all in on your dream.

If you’re a creator, entrepreneur, or marketer trying to dominate attention in today’s world - this is the blueprint..
