The best podcast about jobs — "Hey, Cool Job!" The best minipod about mental health and creativity - "Hey, Cool Life!"
I talked to absolute ledge and internet iconoclast Adam J. Kurtz AKA @ AdamJK AGES AGO but figured Cyber Monday was the perfect time to unleash this. Mostly because we both find the entire concept of Cyber Monday sort of hilarious? In any case, we get really vulnerable and honest about how success can be weirdly tinged with shame and dish about our feeeeeeeelings around money. I love this man and find tremendous comfort in his illustrations and aphorisms.
A conversation about mental health, physical health and the second coming-of-age that you experience as an artist of color. Plus, how to hone your own voice and vision as you learn how to stop emulating others. And how—deadass—Eric was almost an accountant.
A beautiful, tender conversation about artistic process, anxiety and self-fulfillment. And how emails are so stressful and IG DMs are better.

The third installment of, “Hey, Cool Job!” is with GQ style editor, Will Welch. He's lovely, with a soothing Southern vibe (which you'll hear in his accent) and you'll also notice that we're trying out this very high-concept, newfangled thing where I introduce each guest to give you a little extra context. I won't belabor what a GQ Magazine is because most of you already know but if you have any curiosity as to how these fools got their swank-ass jobs, maybe POD number 3 will lend a little insight. MAYBE NOT. Dun dun DUUUUUUUUUUN.
