In this first episode of 2025, I start the new year reflecting on how we're all rushing to do more for less these days, plus a few things I needed to get off my chest (looking at you, lens-based artists). The episode features three memorable calls: Brad from first-class triggers tales of airplane bathroom emergencies and celebrity encounters, Susannah asks about my 2008-2009 "Internet Sex" project leading to thoughts on artistic evolution, and Robbie from Massachusetts sparks a deeper discussion about giving our creative work the time it deserves - sometimes even a decade. Plus, my dad calls in with some perfect New Year's wisdom about staying present. Is this a pencil?
