I’m Justin, your podcast host

Hey there! I'm Justin Levinson, your friendly neighborhood agency recruiter turned podcast host.

Agency Side host Justin Levison

Why start a podcast?

My journey into the world of recruiting wasn't a straight path, but it led me to discover my true passion: connecting with people and hearing their stories. Over the years, I've had the privilege of sitting down with countless creatives, each with their own unique journey and perspective on the industry. I realized that every person I talked to had valuable insights and wisdom that deserved to be shared. That's when the idea for Agency Side was born.

I wanted to share these incredible stories with you, the audience. This podcast is my way of opening the door to the minds of agency leaders, learning from their experiences.  I aim to give you a peek behind the curtain of the agency world to what makes great agencies tick - no suits required, just bring your curiosity and maybe a sense of humor.

So join me on this journey as we explore the Agency Side together. Let's learn, laugh, and maybe even change the game while we're at it.

Catch you on the podcast!

Meet your host

Hey there! I'm Justin Levison, the voice behind the mic at Agency Side. Before I was chatting up agency legends on this podcast, I was (and still am) one of the top-billing recruiters in the creative agency space and the owner of Coming Up Creative.

For almost a decade, I've been the go-to guy for creative professionals looking to make their mark in the world. I've connecting hundreds of talented folks with opportunities at some of the coolest shop across Los Angeles, New York City, and London. It's been a wild ride, and I've loved every minute of it.

When I'm not recording episodes or making dream career matches, you can find me: Geeking out on new AI tools, writing music on my piano, or listening to baseball on the radio (Yep, people still do that!)
