About The Ambition To Elevate

Two Homies. Too Authentic Conversations.
Welcome The Ambition To Elevate.

The Ambition To Elevate is a culture driven podcast redefining what ambition means in the modern world.

Hosted by Brian A. Wilkins @yobwilk and Tyler Zinsli @whatupty, the show explores ambition not as a single lane or title, but as a lifelong commitment to growth, curiosity, and perspective.

Each episode invites listeners to think wider through conversations rooted in culture, identity, creativity, and real experiences that shape how we move through life.

From deep dives into movies, music, and sports to food, travel, and global perspective, Ambition To Elevate explores culture as a source of insight and curiosity as a driving force.

The result is a space for people who refuse to be boxed in, believe they are allowed to be more than one thing, and are committed to rising in every area of life.

This is a home for dreamers, doers, creatives, cultural wayfarers, and ambitious minds who want more than surface level motivation.
