Today's guest is one of the great voices of his generation — the theater kid who auditioned for American Idol with Michael Jackson, watched the judges' faces fall, and demanded a second song because he'd just quit his job and had no health insurance.

Creativity through the lens of an Artist, Author and Art Teacher,"Nature has been my greatest art teacher."Marquiss has been a professional artist, art teacher and writer in Bend, Oregon, for 34 years, and the author of Behind the Painting – An Artist's Memoir, published May 7, 2026.She developed her interest in art as a child, surrounded by the lush beauty of the Willamette Valley in Oregon. Marquiss attended both the University of Oregon and UCLA, earning her Bachelor of Science degree in psychology. After graduating she became the Marketing Director for the first private psychiatric hospital in Reno, Nevada, and then a product manager for HCA in Nashville, TN.When her daughter was born, she left her corporate career and returned to her art and writing. “I focused primarily on watercolor because it can be surprising and has a beautiful transparency. Painting with watercolor also teaches about control – when to take it and when to let go –as in life,” she explains. “The abstract cruciform design followed - after years of painting large format florals.”Her recent memoir holds ten of her paintings and a personal story behind each one over a thirty year period. Over time, her paintings created a circular language between her art and her life.This book takes the reader on artistic adventures in Paris and Southern France, the process of finding her artistic style and through tough challenges she faced including divorce, family suicide, a stroke and cancer.As a character voice actor, her daughter Katherine Tole joined Marquiss on the audiobook edition.Her original art and book information can be seen at www.marymarquiss.com.Send us Fan Mail

Amber Grimes is only the fourth guest to ever return to this show, and she came back to argue something uncomfortable: the music by itself is not enough. She is an executive at LVRN and a Billboard Power Player who has built rollouts for 6lack, Summer Walker, and Belly Gang Kushington, and her case is that artist development matters MORE when you are independent, not less. A hit record can make you known. Artist development is what makes you matter.In this episode, Amber breaks down what artist development actually is, why "artist development is dead" is something people say when they are tired of doing it, how to find your story and stage it instead of dumping it all at once, the two houses every artist has to build, the full Belly Gang Kushington rollout, why you need people to like you more than they like your music, Instagram broadcast channels, Trial Reels for free discovery and free data, CoBrand, EVEN, how to name and reward your fans, and the gatekept YouTube Shorts play that turned an artist's press run into his own blog.Amber Grimes:Instagram: https://instagram.com/ambergrimesPodcast (If You Knew Better): https://www.youtube.com/@IYKBetterHer Substack article that inspired the episode: https://withambergrimes.substack.com/p/artist-development-matters-more-whenHer first appearance on the podcast: https://youtu.be/SyG3cq_VwqAEverything OMT:Website: https://onemoretime.fm/ytInstagram: https://instagram.com/onemoretime.fmTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@onemoretime.fmThe Blue Room: https://discord.com/invite/rTAYsPcyEYApply to be on the show:https://onemoretime.fm/guest30% off DistroKid:https://omtdistro.comMerch:https://onemoretime.fm/shopBusiness inquiries: team@onemoretime.fm

Join host Sue Rose Minahan as she welcomes Rick Levine—internationally renowned astrologer and Seattle local—to speculate on the profound “4° Barbault Basket Burst” occurring on July 19th.The celestial sky is presenting a powerful alignment. The first major shift arrives on July 19, 2026, anchoring at 4° and involving five distinct planets: the Moon, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.This interlocked pattern forms a grand trine and mystic triangle, creating a supportive "cradle" of trines and sextiles that will hold a tight, potent orb at 4° for three consecutive days.The Core Dynamics of the Alignment-The Outer Planet Foundation: The mystique of this pattern pivots on the outer planets, which are currently engaging in an extended mini grand trine spanning 2024–2029 (concentrating at its tightest from 2025–2027).-The Jupiter Amplifier: Jupiter in Leo adds a massive dynamic energy to the mix, hinging a "BIG" tag onto this aspect and promoting a lasting legacy that pushes humanity forward.-The Lunar Trigger: While the outer planets move slowly, the Moon transiting Libra acts as the crucial fifth point. The Moon unites these five archetypes of transformation, serving as the immediate catalyst that begins a collective bursting through old paradigms.With Uranus and Pluto intensely breaking old patterns, this extraordinary planetary cradle acts as a true launching pad for elevated cultural consciousness.RICK LEVINE: is a world-renowned astrologer, scholar and author.

PATTI SMITH – WORKER. Patti Smith was born in Chicago in 1946. In the 1970s the American poet, songwriter, singer, and visual artist blazed a trail for punk rock artists, especially women. Patti Smith earned herself such titles as "godmother of punk" and "punk's poet laureate" with her androgynous appearance, intense live performances, and penchant for writing lyrics that often blend poetry with subversive themes, She retreated from public view in the 1980s but made a successful return to performing in the 1990s. Following her comeback, she has published several acclaimed memoirs about her life and career as one of rock's most avant-garde artists. "I don't want to be rich and famous. I want to be great." "I'm for children. That is my number one concern." "Have I earned all this adulation?" https://www.alainelkanninterviews.com/patti-smith
Artist and educator Tim Guthrie talks about surviving grief, facing mortality, loving again, and living with a changed relationship to art. Along the way, the conversation becomes less about legacy and more about the small, human moments that make being alive feel like enough.Tim Guthrie is an Omaha-based multimedia visual artist filmmaker and professor at Creighton University where he holds the Joella Cohen Endowed Chair in Journalism. Working across drawing painting sculpture film digital fabrication and new media, Guthrie explores themes of truth, grief, memory, politics, and social justice. His films and visual art have received numerous national and international awards and his work has been presented around the world from TEDxOmaha to the Sorbonne in Paris.Guthrie previously appeared as a guest on the show in 2018. When he joined me then, we explored many of his artistic and other projects, including Extraordinary Rendition and the Museum of Alternative History. Having talked then about what Guthrie makes, this week's show spends more time exploring whether he still believes art can do what he once hoped, what life has made of him, and a changed understanding of a satisfying life.

Artist and film scholar Isabelle Roig has been hacking into super secret Neil Breen-related databases, discovering more than any hacker ever has ever! Bravely disclosing it to twisted pair Josh and Andrew, what she has found will shock them. Taking a more fair reading on the “so-bad-it's-good” filmmaker, the trio try to make sense of his cult film Fateful Findings, unraveling all the genre-mashing, carpeted McMansion hospitals, vague conspiracies, and Breen's uncanny ability to force his young female co-stars into being attracted to him. Grab your magic rock and look into this cinematic funhouse mirror that gave our hosts something that can only be described as neo-Lynchian. Then, they have One More Thing, recommending film critic Alisha Mughal's It Can't Rain All the Time, a Pop Classics analysis on The Crow, and Burt Reynolds' action-packed “moonshine melodrama” White Lightning.Next week, in preparation for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, Josh and Andrew go back to one of his early works, the twisty and beloved magician thriller The Prestige (or was it The Illusionist?).Until then, read on at thetake-up.com and follow us @thetakeupstl on Instagram, Twitter, Letterboxd, and Facebook.

The Dáil has heard that the work of a Clare artist was treated by an AI system as a "resource to be harvested". Sinn Féin has this week tabled a motion aimed at protecting the copyright of Irish artists in the era of artificial intelligence. The bill has received vocal support from the likes of the International Federation of Actors, Danny O'Donoghue of The Script, and former arts minister Catherine Martin. Speaking in the Dáil, Shannon Sinn Féin TD Donna McGettigan says the use of the Clare artist's work in this way "reflected the priorities of an algorithm".

The life you're dreaming about isn't waiting for the perfect time. Take the leap, trust yourself, and discover the extraordinary hidden in the ordinary.-BrandiArtist Clare Howell shares how one spontaneous trip to Ireland changed everything... What began as an unplanned adventure grew into a life of creativity, connection, and courage. From traveling solo across Europe in a motorhome to becoming a full-time artist at 60, Clare reminds us that the biggest barriers are often the ones we create ourselves. This conversation is an invitation to stop waiting, book the trip, say yes to the experience, and trust that every step toward creativity leads you exactly where you're meant to be.2 Takeaway TipsDon't let money become the reason you never live your life. There may never be a “perfect” time. Simplify where you can, take the leap, and invest in experiences that move you closer to the creative life you truly want.Find the extraordinary in the ordinary. Leave room for the unexpected. Some of life's greatest moments happen when you stop over planning, stay curious, ask for help, and let adventure unfold one step at a time.
In this illuminating conversation, host Tom Alvarez sits down with director Carlos Medina Maldonado to explore far more than a new stage production.

What's better than a gay party? A gay after party? Absolutely not! We're talking about a gay after-after party! That's right, this mix from Mimsy was captured live at House of Dorothy - the capstone to a wild and vibrant Missoula Pride weekend back in June. Mimsy operates out of Bozeman, MT as a DJ and producer. While he can effortlessly curate any dancefloor, any party and any vibe, his true inspiration and mastery stems from Midtempo Bass. We are excited to archive this particularly dark, industrial, and inspiring set. A few words from the Artist: "This set was recorded live at the official Missoula Pride after party, House of Dorothy, where the energy stayed high well into the morning. I put together a midtempo set with darker club influences keeping the momentum high blending many of my favorite tracks. Hope this mix captures a little of how special that night was. Thank you everyone who came out making the night unforgettable. Happy pride

Paul Puckett is an acclaimed sporting artist, illustrator, and lifelong angler whose work captures the beauty, adventure, and emotion of life on the water. Born and raised in Dallas, Texas, Puckett developed an early passion for fishing, art and music, spending countless summers on the bass lakes of East Texas with his father and grandfathers—experiences that continue to inspire his work today. He earned a degree in advertising design from the University of North Texas before embarking on a career that blended his artistic talents with his love of fly fishing. After working in fly shops in Dallas, Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and Atlanta, Puckett relocated to Charleston, South Carolina, where he committed himself full-time to creating fine sporting art. His paintings are recognized for their expressive brushwork, vibrant color, and remarkable ability to capture not only the likeness of fish and wildlife but also the memories and stories behind every catch. Puckett's signature "Catch and Release" paintings have become especially sought after by anglers. These highly personalized works often incorporate the fish, the fly used, the location, and handwritten notes that commemorate a memorable day on the water. In addition to fine art, he is widely known for his humorous fishing illustrations, editorial artwork, and graphic design, bringing personality and authenticity to the outdoor lifestyle. His artwork has appeared in leading angling publications, galleries, conservation organizations, and sporting events throughout the United States. One of his original works is part of the permanent collection of the American Museum of Fly Fishing, a testament to his enduring contribution to the sport and its artistic heritage. In 2025, Puckett was also the subject of the acclaimed short film Time Will Tell, directed by Hilton Graham. The film chronicles his journey as an artist and fly fisherman and, in 2025, Paul and Hilton Graham's Time Will Tell received an Emmy Award, further recognizing the impact of Puckett's story and creative legacy. An avid traveler and dedicated fly fisherman, Puckett has pursued fish across North and South America, the Caribbean, the Seychelles, and beyond, drawing inspiration from each destination and translating those experiences into paintings that resonate with anglers and art collectors alike. Today, Paul Puckett continues to paint from his studio in Charleston, creating original oils, watercolors, illustrations, and commissioned works that celebrate the enduring connection between anglers, wildlife, and the waters they cherish. His art reflects a simple philosophy: the greatest fishing stories are about far more than the fish—they are about the places, the people, and the memories that last a lifetime.

In 2008, artist and activist Ai Weiwei clashed with the Chinese government over its response to the deadly Sichuan earthquake. The government had censored information about the death toll, so Ai Weiwei launched a citizen's investigation, knocking on doors and visiting villages to learn the names of the thousands of children who died. More recently, the artist has also become critical of political censorship in the United States. In today's episode, he joins Here & Now's Scott Tong for a conversation about his new book On Censorship, a critique of censorship under both democratic and authoritarian governments.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedaySee pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy
I had Gloria Martinez-Granados on the show today. I was fortunate to meet her at Earth Maker Gallery, which is Thomas "Breeze" Marcus's Gallery in Phoenix, and get the chance to talk to her. I was just fascinated with how she makes her art, the intensity she works with, and the time it takes. One of the pieces that she did took over 210 days and it was made of 48,900 individual stitches. As you can imagine it's a very labor intensive undertaking. As interesting as her art is, she is equally interesting. Gloria has this long path that lead her to where she is today. She came over with her parents as an undocumented child at the age of eight. That journey of finding her place in America is fascinating as is how she reflects on being an artist in America. On her journey, Gloria got a nursing degree, and then eventually went back and got an art degree at ASU. Fast forward to today, and she has numerous award and has been a part of major museum shows.I really had a great time on this podcast, and I can always tell when I'm having fun on a podcast when time literally stops. I couldn't have told you if it was 5 minutes or 2 hours. It was a great to listen to her journey and witness her enthusiasm in person. I encourage you to watch it on YouTube if you can, just to see her beautiful smile, because she's there's such a genuineness to her and to her art and the creativity that comes through in her work.I hope you enjoy this podcast as much as I did. This is interdisciplinary artist Gloria Martinez-Granados on Art Dealer Diaries Podcast episode 404.
In this episode, Bev and Gage discuss:Gage's backstory into coaching and business developmentA focus on service in client creationBev and Gage give a few tips on how to start creating clients through serving others, using your network and creating solutions with your services in gaps in the systemKey Take-aways:Reflect on your business coaching goals and what support would be helpful to you right nowAssess if you energy is all in or not on your coaching businessConnect with Gage if interested in developing your business through client creation focused on service.

Daughter. Sister. Friend. Professional coach and mentor. Facilitator. Lifelong learner. Gardener. Weekend Artist.Then, there are the more colorful, authentic-feeling ways I can describe myself: Soul-Centered Coach. Animist. Dream Worker. Artist of Life.My path to where I am today has been a long and winding one, not at all clear cut or linear, as I once thought paths were supposed to be.“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.”Rilke's words have been a great reminder that the path - even if I cannot see it - is always there, always emerging. They have helped me to slow down and ‘live everything' now,~The reason that I coach today is twofold:One, when I'm coaching another human, I feel on purpose, doing some of the most meaningful work I can think of. I feel I'm getting to be part of helping other humans become who and what they uniquely are.The second reason I coach is that it's my way of paying it forward. I wouldn't be where I am today were it not for all the coaches, mentors, teachers, elders, and guides who have shared their time, attention, loving honesty, and fierce compassion with me. These people have helped me get out of my way (more times than I can count) while also being truly inspiring examples of what's possible.Part of what I admire most about these humans has been their willingness to be vulnerable, real, and deeply rooted in service, passing on what they have received. It's my hope and prayer to be able to do the same through my work.Connect with Gage:Website: https://www.gagebock.com/Email: gagebock@gmail.comLI profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagebock/About Beverly:Beverly Sartain is the President of the Holistic Coach Training Institute, where she trains coaches on coaching skills and a holistic approach.

Buckle up sweet listeners, this one is extra special. Sarah and Jane sat down with Davis Haines, an artist, musician, and near-death experiencer who is an exceptionally sparkly human. Tear stained and soggy from the conversation, by the end both of us are convinced he is emitting actual light beams. Davis grew up in a wonderful but chaotic, art-obsessed family in Alabama, an identical twin who found himself through theater, poetry, and a barbershop quartet. Davis he woke up at 5am in High School to rehearse with (the devotion!). He fell in love young, coined his own spiritual identity as a "love-ist" because why not just make up the word you need, and lived that glorious, broke, funk-band-and-feather-boas artist life in Chicago in his early twenties. Then, on July 11, 2011, a bike ride took a dark turn. Davis went under the back tires of a truck, and was given a 1% chance of survival. During emergency surgery, he died. And what he found on the other side was not tunnels or visions, it was love, love and love capital L. The rest of the episode is a joyful wander through what Davis calls integration, the long and winding thirteen-year-average process of putting himself back together. There is a vision quest, a skydive, some ayahuasca, a whole lot of learning to just be, a stray backyard cat named nothing in particular, and a soul mantra ("thank you, I love you") that will bring you all the feels. Key Takeaways Integration takes time, sometimes as long as a decade or more, and there is zero shame in the slow, messy unfolding. Let it be a whole journey, not a weekend project. Rest is not the opposite of a spiritual life. It might BE the spiritual life. Chill guilt is real and worth releasing. The universe has a flair for the dramatic. When something feels too perfectly symbolic to be a coincidence, it might be worth paying attention to. Chasing the big cosmic feeling through extreme experiences often leads right back to something delightfully small, like a baby waving hello or a cat on the compost bin. Healing generational wounds does not require a big dramatic showdown. Sometimes it just looks like raising a kid who has never once doubted her own magnificence. You do not need a tunnel of light or a dramatic vision to have a real, life-rearranging near-death experience. Sometimes love shows up as pure feeling, no special effects required. Direct Quotes "God is a feeling... this was one of those things where I was like, oh, oh, oh, God is everything, like everything." "It was like sinking into a warm tub after a long cold day in the snow, times a thousand." "I say that Art saved my life." "Thank you, I love you. Thank you, I love you. That has actually become my prayer, my mantra." "Actually, this is it... I can't believe that I am happily living in my hometown doing this."

Caroline White has been a professional photographer for 21 years — starting as an actress shooting headshots on the side before a burglary wiped out her equipment and pushed her into photography full-time. Since 2011 she's averaged six figures a year shooting personal branding for women entrepreneurs and coaches, and more recently has pivoted into a passion project: underwater portrait photography.In this episode, Caroline and Nikki dig into pricing high-touch branding packages (from $2,500 simple sessions to a $20,000 two-and-a-half-day shoot), the "asshole insurance" strategy that protects her boundaries while letting her overdeliver for great clients, how AI is affecting (and not affecting) the personal branding photo market, and her transition from packages to in-person sales for underwater work — including handmade, rhinestone-embellished prints. Caroline also opens up about the near-drowning experiences that shaped her fearlessness in the water and her ability to help nervous clients feel safe underwater.Topics covered:Building a 6-figure business without weddings or paid adsHow marketing lag works — and what happens when you stopAdd-ons that increase average sale (rush orders, retouching tiers, split-day shoots)"Asshole insurance": overdelivering for good clients, holding boundaries with difficult onesAI's real impact on personal branding photographyUnderwater photography: gear, safety, and working with non-swimmersTransitioning from packages to in-person sales (IPS)Handmade art pieces: painting on prints, Swarovski crystals, double exposuresIf you're building a photography business, want to grow your portrait photography income, or are curious about how to make money from photography online, this conversation is packed with actionable advice.
