Ep. 126: Sho Mitsui | Bridging the Gap Between Music, Fashion & Culture

Sho Mitsui is a dear friend of mine with a very cool story. He's from Japan and works as a Japanese to English translator for a lot of streetwear brands. In addition, he was in a band called Alternative Medicine, and now has a brand of his own called Plastic Lab, where they do really cool custom one-off vehicles and plastic figures.

To add to the full circle moment, he's close friends with Ryan Scott Graham, who was also on the podcast and is in State Champs.

Overall, he's an incredibly kind, excited dude always doing things from a place of passion. For all those reasons it was an honor to have him on. Let's get into it!
