About

I'm Cory Stout — I live on the Venice Beach boardwalk, run a wooden sunglasses brand called Woodies (500,000+ pairs sold on Amazon in 14 years), wrote a book called END SMALL TALK with 607 questions that kill boring conversations, and I'm currently learning to fly planes. I finished an Ironman, play basketball like it's church, and I believe the quality of your life is determined by the quality of your questions.
