Making Ugly Work (a monologue)

Season 2 · Episode 4

Sunday, July 6, 2025 • Duration 06:57

We don't like to talk about it, but every artist - no matter how brilliant - has made something... ugly.

In this solo episode, I dive into creative failure. From Billie Eilish's bedroom recordings to Tyler Mitchell's offbeat photos and Hans Zimmer's sonic accidents, this episode explores why the things that don't work are often the key to the work that does.

If you've ever wanted to throw your sketchbook in the trash - DON'T.

Check out my new EP called "You > Time." wherever you listen. It is linked on this page.

Thank you for listening

Creativity in Unexpected Places: The Artists We Don't See (a monologue)

Season 2 · Episode 1

Sunday, June 22, 2025 • Duration 09:30

What does creativity look like outside the arts?

In this solo episode, David explores the hidden world of creativity happening all around us—in city planning, therapy, cooking, coaching, and more. From the urban designer who shapes emotional experiences through space to the teacher who turns chaos into clarity, we uncover the artistry in work that often goes unnoticed.

This episode is a reflection on how creativity is less about what we make—and more about how we see, solve, and care.

Topics covered:

The emotional design of cities
Therapists as reframers and inner storytellers
Everyday cooking as cultural and emotional expression
Leadership and teaching as forms of live improvisation

Tune in and consider: Where have I seen creativity today—and didn’t realize it?
