[special episode] the craft x ALMG with Jeff Hamada of Booooooom

Hello friends, We are very excited for this week’s podcast. Not only is this conversation rich, fun, and inspiring, it is my first-ever collaborative podcast with my dear friends Zach Berman and Dean Morris of A Little More Good podcast. And the reason for this creative format was inspired by our guest, the one and only Jeff Hamada. Jeff is a Japanese-Canadian artist who hails from right here in Vancouver, or Richmond to be specific. Jeff is perhaps best known for his website Booooooom, which he launched in 2008. The website was wonderfully curated and deeply interactive with guest submissions, collaborative projects and the ever present invitation to poke around and be inspired to create something yourself. Booooooom quickly became Canada's largest online art publication, giving thousands of artists and creatives exposure on a huge level. Jeff is many things: an artist, a film maker, games master, tenacious hockey player, and great pal to be stuck in a waiting room with. But, above all, he is very humble and approachable, and is always wanting to create community and connection. We were thrilled to sit down and chat with him about his upbringing, his sense of wonder and creativity, the future of the internet and how web personalization is a threat to our creativity, aliens, and more. We KNOW you're going to enjoy this episode. As always, thank you for tuning in! May, Zach & Dean

There’s a particular texture to a life built around creating something meaningful, whether that’s a business, a work of art, or a new path forward. The Craft with May Globus pulls back the curtain on those lives through unhurried, intimate dialogues. May sits down with a diverse range of creators, founders, and pioneers, but the focus here is less on glossy success stories and more on the raw material of their journeys. You’ll hear the nuances of their creative process, the pivotal moments in their personal backstory, and how their philosophy shapes their daily existence. It’s an ongoing exploration of the shared humanity behind different kinds of work. What makes this podcast uniquely immersive is its commitment to being an audio-visual experience. Each conversation is accompanied by rich, editorial-style photography that provides a deeper, more sensory connection to the guest and their world. Think of it like a beautifully composed magazine feature that you can listen to, where the images and the dialogue work in concert. Tuning into this podcast feels like gaining quiet, privileged access to the minds of people who are thoughtfully shaping culture, one idea at a time.
