Ask Dodge #3. Why Live Events Are The Future & The Power of Human Connection

Ask Dodge #3. Why Live Events Are The Future & The Power of Human Connection

Author: Dodge Woodall April 17, 2026 Duration: 46:08

Every Friday Dodge gets interviewed by Co-Host Mark Masters (You Are The Media).


This chat is all about why live experiences are more powerful and more needed than ever, how Dodge went from selling queue jump tickets as a ten year old to building a festival that has sold over a million tickets across nearly two decades, and why in a world of doomscrolling and digital everything, getting people in a room together is becoming the most valuable thing you can offer.


Dodge also opens up about remortgaging his house, signing a ten year personal guarantee and the brutal reality of what it actually takes to build a live event that survives long after the competition has disappeared.

Dodge Woodall hosts Eventful Lives, a podcast built on the simple premise that everyone has a remarkable story if you know where to look. Since launching in 2020, he’s sat down with over 350 guests from an incredibly wide spectrum of life, creating a unique blend of conversation that spans business, culture, and true crime. One episode might feature a music legend recounting life on the road, while the next delves into the mindset of a former SAS soldier or the gritty realities shared by someone from the criminal underworld. This variety is the show's signature, offering listeners unexpected connections between the worlds of elite entrepreneurship, high-stakes sports, health, and nightlife promotion. The conversations are less about formal interviews and more about uncovering the pivotal moments-the events, decisions, and turning points-that truly define these fascinating lives. With a global audience tuning in from 187 countries, this podcast has found a dedicated following by consistently delivering raw, human stories you won't hear anywhere else. It’s a place where the drive to build a business empire and the lessons from a life on the edge are given equal weight, all through Dodge’s engaging and curious perspective.
