Description

Pogoda (Megan) has lived a few lifetimes in one: punk kid turned festival lifer, underground warehouse VJ turned global touring visual performer, and eventually Lil Jon’s VJ during the “Turn Down for What” era.In this episode, she walks us through the moment electronic music finally clicked (a rave in an abandoned saloon), how she taught herself a career by reaching out and asking to help, and what it’s really like to work on massive stages while staying “famous-adjacent.”Then the story takes a sharp, inspiring pivot: after years behind screens, Pogoda started building a tiny house on a trailer—documenting the process and turning it into Build It Betties, a project dedicated to empowering women to pick up tools and learn by doing.We also get into yoga as a grounding “tool,” creating tea spaces at festivals to spark real connection, and why the next wave of visuals is about immersive storytelling—not just “pretty stuff on a screen.”​Follow Pogoda: https://www.instagram.com/pogodavisuals/Build It Betties: https://www.instagram.com/builditbetties/Build It Betties (Episode 1): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EXHfW7JO2c
