Everyone has plans until they get punched in the face.

from Unscripted Untold Podcast Hosted by Evan Erazorblade Majors and Mike Sick

In this vulnerable Episode 9 of Unscripted Untold, Evan Majors, casting director and journalist, and Mike Sick, creative producer and brand strategist, open up about what it really means to create in the fog. Not the curated version. Not the highlight reel. The real one. When the wins go quiet. When the phone stops ringing.When you start questioning yourself. This is a conversation about what happens when a challenging season forces you back to basics. About separating identity from industry. About refusing to perform strength when you’re actually being refined by the fight. Evan speaks candidly about questioning whether he still has a career in casting during a slow season, and what it takes to rebuild belief without applause. Mike reflects on faith, reinvention, and why the fog is not a detour — it’s part of the journey. Together, they unpack: * Why is uncertainty part of the assignment * How discipline creates stability when emotions fluctuate * The danger of comparing your real life to someone else’s highlight reel * Reinvention as a requirement for longevity * Why action creates clarity, not the other way around * And why waiting for perfect conditions is how you lose the fight This episode is for anyone in a quiet season. Anyone who feels behind. Anyone rebuilding in real time. The fog doesn’t mean you’re finished. It means your journey just got real. 🎧 Listen now If this conversation resonates, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone navigating their own fog. This is a public episode.
