  • Are You Tough Enough_ - February 22nd 2026
    Feb 23 2026
    In this industry—and in this world—you have to be tough. Not loud. Not arrogant. Tough. Tough enough to hear “no” a hundred times and still show up the next morning ready to create. Tough enough to sit in rooms where people question your vision, your talent, your worth—and not shrink. The entertainment business will test you. It will test your patience, your confidence, and your character. If you can’t face confrontation, if you can’t handle uncomfortable conversations, you won’t last long.
    Being tough means saying what others don’t want to hear. It means standing on your beliefs even when it costs you opportunities. As an artist, you’re constantly being pulled in directions that may not align with who you are. People will try to reshape you, soften you, commercialize you, or silence you. Toughness is knowing who you are and refusing to betray that for applause. It’s being able to look someone in the eye and respectfully say, “That’s not my vision.”
    You also have to be tough enough to push through negativity. There will be people who talk down to you. People who underestimate you. People who try to make you feel small because they feel small. The industry can be filled with ego, insecurity, and power games. Toughness is not letting their behavior dictate your self-worth. It’s developing a thick skin without developing a cold heart. It’s staying disciplined when others are distracted, staying focused when others are critical.
    On this show, we talk about that real toughness. Not the fake bravado—but the inner strength it takes to survive and thrive in this business. We break down what it means to stand firm, to endure rejection, and to protect your integrity at all costs. Because if you’re going to build something lasting in this industry, you have to be strong enough to weather the storms—and bold enough to keep your voice when the pressure is on.

  • The John Henry Soto Show - Time Trek - Episode One
    Jan 5 2026
    Our First Star Trek Show 🚀
    Warp speed engaged. For our very first Star Trek episode, we’re boldly going where we probably should’ve gone years ago: straight into a spirited conversation about the greatest Star Trek film of them all.
    We’ll break down why this one stands above the rest—story, characters, themes, and that unmistakable moment when Star Trek stopped being just sci-fi and became something deeper. No rankings. No shouting. Just two lifelong fans having an honest, smart, and occasionally funny conversation about what makes this film endure.
    The real question is… can you guess which movie we’re talking about before we say it out loud?
    Set phasers to discussion. Engage. 🖖
