WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE AND ADULT THEMES.

Beyond his professional work, John reflects on the concept of curiosity—how it drives creativity and innovation. We discuss the role of curiosity in both human endeavors and artificial intelligence, and John reveals what he's personally curious about outside his professional sphere.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the art of storytelling, the impact of visual narratives, and the enduring appeal of graphic novels.
