In this episode, Andrew speaks with Noémie Marmara - a multidisciplinary artist, poet, and ceramicist living in the south of France. Together, they explore the emotional, spiritual, and physical properties of clay, art, and the unseen forces that shape both. What begins as a conversation about vessels becomes a meditation on identity, perception, neurodivergence, trauma, and transformation. Noémie shares her personal story with unflinching honesty and poetic insight, revealing how art can emerge from fracture—and why imperfection may be the most powerful form of beauty.

Jon Rolston is either a poet who deals in junk or a junkman who deals in poetry. In any case, he's a super hip collector and steward of wayward objects. I caught up with him at his shop in San Francisco to talk trash. We cover a variety of topics, including death, consumerism, hope, flea markets, a five-year plan that took fifteen to materialize, and more. Join me for a chat with the Junkman himself. Share and Enjoy!

In addition to being a poet, sculptor, photographer, storyteller, and thinker, Wanda Orme is also a hilarious problem solver (an even funnier troublemaker) and one of my new favorite people on the planet. We spent a little time in the van chatting about art, loss, life, and the bizarre miracle of Bombay Beach, CA. Share and Enjoy!

I'm pleased to share my early morning, coffee-fueled conversation with Christopher Gallo, but just call him Gallo. As a highly skilled cinematographer, storyteller, filmmaker, and director of photography for film and television, Gallo has taste, style, and a searing sense of humor. As a collaborator and neighbor at the Bombay Beach Biennale, he was a hilarious delight to be around. We talked about his recently completed documentary, "Healing Cube," his East Coast roots, his artistic influences, and what it's like to be a damn good dad. Share and Enjoy, Friends!

Next up in our Bombay Beach series is writer and philosopher Eric Kaplan. He's so profoundly got his shit together he sent in a proper bio! A native of Flatbush, New York, Eric Kaplan began writing for Spy magazine and the Harvard Lampoon before getting his first television-writing job on The Late Show with David Letterman. Before THE BIG BANG THEORY, he worked on other shows including Futurama (for which he won an Emmy), Flight of the Conchords, Malcolm in the Middle, and Andy Richter Controls the Universe. Kaplan created "Zombie College" for icebox and co-created "The Drinky Crow Show" and "Mongo Wrestling Alliance" for Adult Swim through his company Mirari Films. Kaplan has his PhD from UC Berkeley in philosophy on the comic in the philosophy of Soren Kierkegaard. His book Does Santa Exist: A Philosophical Investigation was published by Dutton in 2014 and has been called by Matt Groening "the funniest philosophy book since...well, ever." His science fiction and philosophy have appeared in the New York Times. We touched on philosophy, writing, comedy, summer camp, and the many blindspots in my worldview. We completely failed to talk about his inherited collection of blues records, his daring and courageous work in the Himalayas, and what it's like hosting a podcast with Tao Ruspoli.

Have you any idea how to untangle the complexity of the near-shore environment along the coast of North America? Well, our guest, Dr. Carl Schoch sure does! Dr. Carl is an oceanographer, a traveler, an adventurer, and a world-class sweetheart. The following episode is a re-print from the Raised By Whoops Fake Radio Show from the halcyon days of 2022. Back when the only thing we had to worry about was what to worry about next. Since then, Dr. Carl has cycled from our house near San Francisco to Mexico and the length of the continental divide from Banff to Mexico. As if that weren’t enough, he’s now preparing for a 1,500-plus-mile kayak journey through the Inside Passage from Skagway, Alaska, to Victoria Island, BC.

Ohh man...how fortunate are we to live in the same world as today's guest, Erik Lomen. First of all, I only got to meet Erik because of serendipitous timing, bad weather in Cheyenne, WY, a not-to-be-missed Boston Celtics game, my propensity to arrive early for meals, my preference for eating at the bar, and a chance encounter with Erik's delightful and interesting mom, Marcy. Based solely on her hardly disinterested say-so, I drove to Gardiner Maine to spend the day with one of our new favorite people. Erik is the host of "The Myco Wizards Podcast", and founder and brainchild behind the wildly innovative Maine Cap 'N Stem - a supplier of spore-ready substrate for cultivators of mushrooms from Lion's Mane to Penis Envy. This is NOT a stoner, freaky mushroom weirdo episode...well, it is, but it's also much more. Erik is a deeply thoughtful, battle-tested polymath with a heart of red oak; perfect for taking mycelium to all its favorite places. Tune in for a particularly interesting ride. Share and Enjoy!
