Over the years, Cameron Smith has used comedy, music and film as ways to process life and connect with people in a real, unpolished way.

His latest project, The Loneliest Boy on Earth, came out of that impulse — part experiment, part personal confession, and part attempt to make sense of love and identity in the modern world.

He has learned that vulnerability, when shared honestly, can be both healing and entertaining (also provocative and dangerous).

Across all mediums — whether film, music, or live conversation — my work is about pushing boundaries, experimenting with form, and ultimately creating something that is both meaningful and entertaining.

This was a spirited convo covering what artists should do, loneliness, taking risks and so much more. Don't miss it!!
