Come along for another ride as we chat about authorship, career development, productivity, scale and Kelpies.

| Agony Architect - 01 | 08 Dec 2022 | 00:10:01 | |
Hungry for some In Detail goodness but don’t feel up for our usual hour of chit chat? Well, today we’re serving up the perfect bite sized snack just for you.
Agony Architect is a bonus series of shorts where we answer your burning questions about creative business. To kick it off with a gesture at symmetry, we have a question from Mike (it really isn’t Mick, we swear!), who wants to know about fees, specifically how to get more of them when you’re first starting out in business.
Got a question for a future Agony Architect? Email us at indetailshow@gmail.com or tweet us (while you still can) at @indetailshow.
Thanks to Adelaide at Mihaly Slocombe, for suggesting we launch Agony Architect in the first place.

| S03E05 - Knight Bacon - Part 2 | 05 Dec 2022 | 01:06:28 | |
In this, the second half of our Knight Bacon reflections, we get a bit wild. There are Mexican data cartels, gotcha photoshoots, black swan events, blame games and ninja negotiations. And if we may say so ourselves, the audio quality is just delightful.
