At Large with Scott Norton #8: Scott Norton - Purpose & Play (Hosted by Kyle Thiermann)
This week, Scott turns the tables by serving as guest on his own show. The adept interviewer Kyle Thiermann graciously hosts this episode so listeners can better get to know Scott as the host of At Large. Kyle is a journalist, copywriter, activist, humorist, and a professionally sponsored big wave surfer. On today’s episode, we discuss the moment that sparked the idea for Sir Kensington’s, the power of play in business, and threading the needle in product design between novelty and nostalgia. Scott shares the emotional experience of building a startup and the unexpected emotions around selling a company. He gives hot takes on non-alcoholic beer, what he looks for in startups as an investor, and provides a detailed recipe for Japanese Tonkatsu.
