Looking to Get Into Illustration? Here's How to Begin.NEW—I am now offering free previews of Monologue episodes. This will help you decide if subscribing on Patreon / Spotify is right for you. Wouldn't it be nice if there was an Illustrator's Starter Pack that could get you up and running as an illustrator ASAP? The reality is that any attempts to find a fast track into illustration could actually slow you down. In this episode, I share my SMART System: five paradigms (Styles, Markets, Applications, Reasons, Techniques) that help you get specific about what you want to make and where it belongs. Instead of hunting for the perfect gear or foolproof course list, SMART gives you a clear way to map your starting point.If you've been overwhelmed by tools, apps, or conflicting advice—and you just want a concrete way to begin—this episode is for you.IN THIS EPISODEWhy gear and classes alone won't make you an illustratorThe SMART System overviewStyles vs. Techniques: how they relate and why they're not the same thingMarkets vs. Applications: who buys the work vs. where the work livesReasons (purpose): the “why” that sharpens every briefThe closest thing to a starter pack? — (iPad + Apple Pencil + Procreate)How to use SMART to choose your next practice project and reduce decision paralysisTwo starter-pack parables: first-aid kits and flimsy badminton setsAs always (from now on), a reflection prompt to help you turn my thoughts into your actions!SHOW LINKSMalika Favre (style reference) — malikafavre.comHervé Tullet (style reference) — herve-tullet.comJohn Roman, 45 Markets of Illustration (markets overview)What is Risograph Printing?

Caring deeply is a gift… but it can also come at a cost.If you've ever felt exhausted from worrying about your dog, questioning if you're doing enough, or carrying the weight of the world because your heart is so wide open, you're not alone. What you may be feeling is compassion fatigue - the very real toll of loving, giving, and advocating without pausing to refill your own cup.In this episode I sit down with Jennifer Blough, a licensed professional counsellor, pet loss specialist, and host of The Compassion Fatigue Podcast. Jen has dedicated her work to helping animal lovers, activists, and caregivers navigate the “cost of caring” with more resilience, balance, and grace.Together we explore:✨ What compassion fatigue actually is and how to recognise it in yourself✨ Why dog mamas (especially those with challenging or special-needs pups) are especially at risk✨ The difference between pain and suffering✨ How guilt and “never enough” thinking fuel burnout✨ Why prioritising your mental health is not selfish, but essential✨ Simple ways to protect your heart while still making a difference✨ How to keep showing up for your dogs, your community, and the planet—without losing yourself in the processThis conversation is an invitation to release the shame, honour your limits, and remember that you can't pour from an empty cup. Because when you care for yourself, you create the capacity to care even more deeply, and sustainably, for the beings who depend on you.Learn more about Jen's work: https://beyondcompassionfatigue.comJoin our free F.E.T.C.H.

Mike and Jesse are joined by Jason Shepherd of Shep's Cards to discuss the crashing NFL quarterback market after Week 2 of the season. Brock Purdy Joe Burrow, Trevor Lawrence, and Bo Nix are all trending down while it's probably a good time to hold onto Justin Herbert and Jordan Love. Is Mac Jones actually trending up? Probably not. Plus, the guys answer mailbag questions including the best ways to move low-end cards, thoughts on Topps Chrome Baseball MVP buy-backs, which five NBA players would be ideal to start your basketball collection with, and how hard it is (or isn't) to own a local card shop.

I sat down with Leo de Araujo, Head of Global Business Innovation at Syntax Systems, to unpack a problem every SAP team knows too well. Years of enhancements and quick fixes leave you with custom code that nobody wants to document, a maze of SharePoint folders, and hard questions whenever S/4HANA comes up. What does this program do. What breaks if we change that field. Do we have three versions of the same thing. Leo's answer is Syntax AI CodeGenie, an agentic AI solution with a built-in chatbot that finally treats documentation and code understanding as a living part of the system, not an afterthought. Here's the thing. CodeGenie automates the creation and upkeep of custom code documentation, then lets you ask plain-language questions about function and business value. Instead of hunting through 40-page PDFs, teams can ask, “Do we already upload sales orders from Excel,” or “What depends on this BAdI,” and get an instant explanation. That changes migration planning. You can see what to keep, what to retire, and where standard capabilities or new extensions make more sense, which shortens the path to S/4HANA Cloud and helps you stay on a clean core. We also talk about how this is delivered. CodeGenie runs on SAP Business Technology Platform, connects through standard APIs, and avoids intrusive add-ons. It is compatible with SAP S/4HANA, S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition through RISE with SAP, and on-premises ECC. Security comes first, with tenant isolation for each customer and no custom code shared externally or used for AI model training. The result is a setup that respects enterprise guardrails while still giving developers and architects fast answers. Clean core gets a plain explanation in this episode. Build outside the application with published APIs, keep upgrades predictable, and innovate at the edge where you can move quickly. CodeGenie gives you the visibility to make that real, surfacing what you actually run today and how it ties to outcomes, so you can design a migration roadmap that fits the business rather than guessing from stale documents. Leo also previews the Gen AI Starter Pack, launching September 9. It bundles a managed, model-flexible platform with workshops, use-case ideation, and initial builds, so teams can move from curiosity to working solutions without locking themselves into a single provider. Paired with CodeGenie and Syntax's development accelerators, the Starter Pack points toward something SAP leaders have wanted for years, a practical way to shift from in-core customizations to clean-core extensions with much less friction. If you are planning S/4HANA, balancing hybrid and multi-cloud realities, or simply tired of tribal knowledge around critical programs, this conversation is for you. We get specific about how CodeGenie works, where it saves time and cost, and how Syntax is shaping a playbook for AI that helps teams deliver results they can trust. ********* Visit the Sponsor of Tech Talks Network: Land your first job in tech in 6 months as a Software QA Engineering Bootcamp with Careerist https://crst.co/OGCLA
