About this Episode Grief can strike when we least expect it, turning our world upside down and reshaping the very foundation of our relationships. When couples encounter loss—whether through miscarriage, infertility, or unexpected life changes—the path to healing can feel lonely, uncharted, and overwhelming. Even the closest partnerships can struggle to find the words, understanding, or comfort needed to move forward together. How do we navigate personal pain while remaining present for each other? Can couples truly heal side by side, even when their experiences of grief are so different? In this episode, listeners are invited into a heartfelt conversation exploring the realities of grief and healing within intimate relationships. Through personal storytelling and expert insight, the discussion dives deep into the complexity of navigating loss as a couple—highlighting the differences in individual grief experiences, the power of mutual support, and the importance of holding both sorrow and hope. Practical wisdom and lived experiences shed light on how couples can create space for each other's emotions, foster resilience, and slowly rebuild a sense of connection and possibility. Whether you have faced loss yourself or support someone who has, this episode offers guidance and reassurance that, together, healing is possible. Madeleine Garner is a New York-based writer.

This week on What's My Thesis?, host Javier Proenza is joined by Ann Shi, a nomadic curator and founder of a poco art collective, whose deeply intuitive curatorial practice bridges Chinese literati aesthetics, feminist mysticism, and contemporary Asian diasporic identity. With roots in China, academic training in Oxford and at Sotheby's Institute of Art, and early career experience on Wall Street, Ann's nonlinear path defies institutional expectations, illuminating how curating can become both an embodied ritual and an act of cultural translation. In this wide-ranging conversation, Ann reflects on growing up as the daughter of a classical inkwash painter and an opera singer, both devoted Buddhist practitioners who observed the Five Precepts, embodying compassion and discipline in daily life—a grounding that continues to shape how calligraphy, voice, and ritual manifest in her exhibitions. Drawing on her time as Associate Curator at Rice University's Chao Center for Asian Studies, she reflects on how oral histories and immigrant archives shaped her curatorial voice and informed her efforts to platform Asian art beyond the Western gaze. Together, Ann and Javier unpack the tension between authenticity and market sustainability, the legacy of the literati tradition in Chinese art, and the complicated dynamics of Asian representation within museum and gallery systems. They also explore Ann's use of feng shui, the five elements, and feminine archetypes—like the goddess Nüwa—as curatorial frameworks that honor the unseen and elevate spiritual intuition over spectacle. The episode closes with a discussion of “Nüwa's Garden: A Summer Offering in Clay, Fire, and Water,” Ann's recent show at Charles Arnoldi Studio in Venice Beach, and its irreverent, ritual-infused closing celebration featuring live performances and feminist mythologies. Topics Discussed: Asian art history beyond Western institutional frameworks Literati aesthetics and connoisseurship in Chinese painting Feminist mysticism, feng shui, and the unseen in exhibition design Spiritual embodiment and curating as a ritual practice Challenges of art market sustainability and cultural authenticity The evolution of ink-on-paper and gendered aesthetics in East Asian art Intersections of performance, memory, and oral history a poco art collective's programming and community Follow Ann Shi: a poco art collective – @a.poco.art.collective Personal account – @annonymous_cynist

Jeffrey Epstein weaponized the art world to mask where his money came from and where it went. Art's notoriously opaque valuation and backdoor transactions suited him perfectly: he shifted massive sums under the cloak of legitimacy, trading artworks, exploiting intermediaries, and leveraging galleries and auction houses to transfer illicit funds. This wasn't fringe behavior—it was a deliberate choice by a predator with deep pockets to exploit a system built on secrecy and prestige, not accountability. His dealings weren't merely eccentric collector moves—they were a calculated financial camouflage.At the same time, the legal and regulatory responses around Epstein's art dealings reveal the art market's structural vulnerabilities. Major auction houses like Christie's and Sotheby's were compelled in a 2020 civil suit from the U.S. Virgin Islands to produce decades of documents relating to Epstein's art transactions—demonstrating how little their oversight safeguarded against abuse. More recently, investigations have spotlighted Epstein's role in facilitating billionaire art collector Leon Black's tax avoidance in eight-figure deals, raising questions in the upper echelon of the art-wealth nexusto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://news.artnet.com/art-world/pandora-papers-art-shell-companies-2067444Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Lo que un genio de la física escribió… dieciséis meses después de perder al amor de su vida. Richard Feynman fue muchas cosas: un físico galardonado con el Premio Nobel, un profesor entusiasta, un padre dedicado y—créelo o no—un hábil percusionista de bongós. Pero más allá de la bata de laboratorio y las aulas, también fue un hombre de un amor profundo y una sensibilidad conmovedora. El corazón de Feynman brillaba tanto como su mente. Se casó con su amor de la adolescencia, Arline Greenbaum, incluso mientras ella luchaba contra la tuberculosis. La salud de Arline se deterioró tan rápidamente que pasó toda su vida matrimonial en hospitales y sanatorios, pero su vínculo nunca se debilitó. Durante ese tiempo, Richard le escribía cartas llenas de ingenio, ternura y una devoción inquebrantable casi todos los días. Muchas de esas cartas se encuentran en su extraordinaria colección Perfectly Reasonable Deviations from the Beaten Track. Pero la más conmovedora de todas es la que escribió dieciséis meses después de su muerte, y que ahora leo para ti. Su historia—una mente brillante, un amor inquebrantable—sigue tocando el corazón de lectores y admiradores hasta hoy. De hecho, la casa de subastas Sotheby's publicó recientemente un artículo precioso sobre su relación extraordinaria.

In this special episode UNP Founder and Curator Grant Scott speaks with architectural photographer Edmund Summer about soft eyes, traces of memory, collaboration and understanding your subject matter. Edmund Sumner  Sumner is an architectural photographer, based in London, with a global clientele spanning four continents. Architects, publishers, government departments and curators alike have, for the past two and a half decades, turned to him to give meaning and context to architecture and design. His work is recognised for its commercial and creative qualities, visualising the formal and spatial aspirations of Modern architecture, sustaining style and environment in equal measure. Sumner collaborates with many of today's leading architects, including Tadao Ando, Foster + Partners, Fernanda Canales and Gianni Botsford. A strong advocate for emerging architectural talent, he contributes his photographic and curatorial expertise to prestigious design festivals such as the Sharjah Architecture Triennial and Arab Design Now. His photographic commissions are complemented by ongoing dialogues with leading publishers and his studio has successfully produced four major publications on his work within the context of global cultural narratives. Beyond his commissioned work, Sumner maintains a personal, creative photography practice.

What if orange-pilling isn't persuasion—but marketing, ethics, and timing? In this episode, we sit down with Tad Smith—partner at One Roundtable Partners, former CEO of Madison Square Garden and Sotheby's, and one of bitcoin's most articulate educators—to explore the moral case for orange-pilling, and why it's not a right but a responsibility. Tad shares hard-won lessons from orange-pilling family members across generations and wealth brackets, and explains why alignment—not argument—is the key. We break down how different cohorts—from boomers to creatives—encounter bitcoin, and why effective orange-pilling starts with listening, not preaching. From bitcoin vs. college and homeownership, to AI's threat to knowledge workers, Tad lays out how bitcoin becomes not speculation, but protection—not rebellion, but insurance—not utopia, but sovereignty.

This interview is with Aleksandra Artamonovskaja https://www.aleksandra.art/amonovskaja, Head of Art at Trilitech of sustainable blockchain Tezos which is a R&D Hub in London. Aleksandra is a leader in the intersection of art and technology, with extensive experience in Web3 art projects. She is a prominent speaker, writer and educator on the role of decentralized technologies in the creative sector. Aleksandra holds an MA in Art Business from Sotheby's Institute of Art and co-founded Electric Artefacts in 2020, a curatorial advisory focused on digital art and blockchain projects. As the Ambassador and former Director of Partnerships at .ART, Aleksandra played a crucial role in launching the digital address for the arts in 2016, overseeing strategic partnerships to foster the embrace of technology in the art world, including collaborations with Rhizome and Ars Electronica, and spearheading the Digital Innovation in Art Award. Tell us about the blockchain Tezos and why it is the favored blockchain for artists Tezos has been favoured by artists since the launch of the first NFT platform in 2021, witnessing the influx of pioneering artists working with code, AI and other digital tools. Simultaneously artists from the global south found Tezos blockchain accessible thanks to its low minting fees and lack of gatekeeping across existing marketplaces. Thanks to Tezos Foundation supporting the arts direction - via educational programming for Museum professionals, platforms, residencies and artist programming, many artists were able to launch their careers and connect with like-minded peers to strengthen the community ties. The Tezos Foundation has been spearheading wider adoption, including being the first to present blockchain-based art at Art Basel in both Miami and Hong Kong. Through partnerships with prestigious institutions such as the Musée d'Orsay, the Serpentine Gallery, or the ArtScience Museum, internationally acclaimed cultural institutions have begun to embrace Web3 art. Notable collaborations include the Van Gogh Digital Collectibles at d'Orsay, MoMA's Postcard Project, and community programs like RGBMTL in Montreal or the Proof Of People festival in London. This institutional presence, combined with educational initiatives like the Vertical Crypto Residency and Academy by Blind Gallery, has made Tezos not just a marketplace but a cultural movement that prioritizes artists and genuine artistic innovation. Even Marina Abramovik chose Tezos for her "The Hero 25FPS" project in 2022, minting 6,500 unique frames from her 2001 film on the energy-efficient blockchain, and more recently for her 2025 "Marina Abramovik Element" project. Other high-profile initiatives include "Paintboxed - Tezos World Tour," a recent series of interactive events by ArtMeta that offered visitors the chance to experience the original Quantel Paintbox - the legendary digital art tool that created the MTV logo and David Hockney's first digital paintings. Why does Tezos Ecosystem support exhibits at Festivals, Conferences such as London Climate Action Week, Climate Week New York, United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30)? Tezos Foundation and Trilitech Arts team focus on initiatives that can help spotlight the creators in the Tezos Ecosystem via dozens of in-real-life events throughout the year that often also coincide with Art World and Web3 events. Some examples include Ribela Festival in Spain curated by Sutan, NFC Lisbon pop-up gallery curated by Xcollabz, Second Guess exhibition during Berlin Gallery Weekend curated by Anika Meier, Museum of the Moving Image year-long artist exhibitions in New York curated by Regina Harsanyi to name a few. How is the art NFT market performing this year? The market for art on the blockchain is steadily expanding. Art curators and journalists are also moving past writing about the clickbait gamified trading NFTs that fetched speculative numbers, towards spotlighting the talented artists who have decades of ex...

This is Matt Reustle. Today we are replaying our Breakdown of Patek Philippe. You never own a Patek Philippe. You merely watch over it for the next generation. I'll say it's the best marketing campaign in history, a campaign appropriate for the world's premier watchmaker and a watchmaker worthy of a Business Breakdown. Our guest today is John Reardon from Collectability. John has worked at Sotheby's, the auction house, and spent a decade at Patek Philippe in the early 2000s. He continues to write for Patek Philippe Magazine while he has launched Collectability, a brand dedicated to vintage and preowned Patek Philippe. We cover what makes Patek such a special brand. There is an almost 200-year history in craftsmanship and countless patents (like that self-winding mechanism that powers all automatic watches today.) What Philippe Stern did in 1989 could be worthy of a 10-episode series, so there is much to learn from this episode. Please enjoy this breakdown of Patek Philippe.

Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen Are classic cars just vintage machines, or rolling works of art? And are they a smart investment for the future? In "Classic Car Restorations: Reviving Automotive Legends," the Inspired Money panel explores how restoring classic cars is about passion, heritage, and innovation. Whether you're an investor, enthusiast, or simply curious about the intersection of culture and craftsmanship, this episode delivers powerful insights that will change the way you see collectible cars. Meet the Expert Panelists Matt DeLorenzo is a veteran automotive journalist and author with over 40 years of experience, having served as editor-in-chief at Road & Track and Autoweek, and as a senior editor at Automotive News and Kelley Blue Book. A founding juror of the North American Car of the Year awards, he has authored multiple books on iconic American vehicles, from the Corvette to the Dodge brand legacy. His next book, "Mercedes-AMG: Race-bred Performance" will go on sale this November. https://tightwadgarage.com Rupert Banner is a Senior Specialist at Gooding Christie's, bringing over 30 years of experience in the collector car auction industry, including senior roles at Bonhams, Christie's, and Sotheby's. Renowned for his global expertise, record-setting sales, and deep ties to the automotive community, he is a trusted authority on valuation, provenance, and the evolving international classic car market. https://www.goodingco.com Tamara Warren is the founder and CEO of Le Car, a Techstars-backed mobility platform and award-winning automotive journalist whose work has appeared in The New York Times, Car and Driver, Rolling Stone, and over 160 publications. A former transportation editor at The Verge and juror for World Car of the Year, she blends deep industry insight with cultural storytelling, sustainability advocacy, and a passion for automotive design and innovation. https://www.tamarawarren.com William Heynes is the founder of William Heynes Ltd, a world-renowned Jaguar preservation and restoration firm dedicated to early E-Types and rooted in the legacy of his grandfather, Bill Heynes, Jaguar's legendary Chief Engineer behind the iconic XK engine and Le Mans victories. Combining deep mechanical knowledge, period-correct craftsmanship, and a passion for originality, William leads a team committed to restoring Jaguar's most historic cars to concours-level authenticity. https://williamheynes.com Key Highlights: Restorations: Craft, Preservation, or Investment? William Heynes shared how true restoration is “about building the car for what it deserves,” not just tailoring it to the owner's preferences. At his shop, the ultimate goal is authenticity. Sometimes a restoration can involve thousands of hours and years to achieve original perfection. Market Trends and Smart Collecting Rupert Banner demystified current auction markets, noting a shift toward modern collectibles and younger buyers. He stresses the value of detailed provenance and emphasizes: “There is so much more value in just owning something and enjoying it... the car may be a conduit to new opportunities, relationships, and experiences.” Cars as a Reflection of Identity and Community Tamara Warren explored how classic cars are powerful symbols of personal legacy and social connection. "To be a collector is actually to be a steward of a legacy," she noted, highlighting the responsibility and joy of carrying forward the story of each car, brand, and community. The Future: Innovation Meets Heritage Matt DeLorenzo and the panel tackled the balance between preservation and modernization, think EV conversions, restomods, and the ethics of “continuation” models. As Matt put it: “Even if there's the rise of the self-driving car, people look at automobiles as a form of recreation... it's a lifestyle, it's a community that's not going to go anywhere.” Call-to-Action Here's your one assignment for the week: Find a car that has personal meaning to you, whether it's a car you grew up with, saw in a movie, or admired from afar, and dig into its story. Look it up, read about it, maybe even check the market. You might discover a connection that turns into a future project, or at the very least, a deeper appreciation for what makes these vehicles legendary.  Find the Inspired Money channel on YouTube or listen to Inspired Money in your favorite podcast player.

Whisky collector Mark Wade specializes in vintage bottlings, specifically Prohibition-era “medicinal” bottles. Part of his collection went on the auction block this month at Sotheby's, and he'll join us on his week's WhiskyCast In-Depth to discuss the search for dusties, authenticating his finds, and that one whisky he's still searching for. In the news, this year's class of Kentucky Bourbon Hall of Fame honorees has been announced, and we'll talk with Parker Beam Lifetime Achievement Award winner Chris Morris. We'll also look at an Irish distillery's unique use of nanotechnology in its stills on Behind the Label. 

On today's episode, an episode from our friends at Sotheby's, exploring the world of Shakespeare. Sam Leith, author, journalist and literary editor of The Spectator, will be joined by Emma Smith, Professor of Shakespeare Studies at Oxford, Tracy-Ann Oberman, who most recently starred as Shylock in her adaptation of The Merchant of Venice, and acclaimed actor Joseph Kloska. They will be revealing how different editions shaped our understanding of Shakespeare's plays. Why do some of his most famous lines vary from version to version? What do these texts reveal about the many ways Shakespeare's plays can be interpreted - on the page, on the stage and in the minds of each new generation? This podcast was recorded at Sotheby's London in May 2025.  And, to step further into the world of Sotheby's, you can visit any of our galleries around the world; they're open to the public.
