- Sociedad y cultura
Yelling at concrete isbi-weekly podcast for coffee and conversation, taking a look at the life and interests of the guests who chat with me as well as taking an introverted look at topics I'm interested in!
Graham is an artist and passionate creative who thrives on generating conversation and discussion in a more abstract manner than just posing questions so three weeks out of each month with a one week breather he sits down to have a cuppa and chat. When guests come they bring their own topic so every episode is lead by the guests interests and what they want to discuss and the solo casts are wandering thoughts on subjects which interest Graham. The goal is keep the subjects diverse and give people a space to just have a chill and talk about what's really going on.
You can catch the show three times a month on a Friday and follow it through the year as Graham brings you a range of guests and topics. The key word is conversation so we don't edit we just talk and that allows us to relax and really get into subjects. I hope you'll join us.

Episode 257 - Getting evicted from the internet.
This week I get a little nostalgic. I get a little reminiscent and I get a little honest about how I was a few weeks back.
The older internet was a free place but not completely free. But it was just enough that you could find random spaces and hang out there with no need to buy anything or watch an advert or even pay attention because they couldn't even collect your details!
So lets sit down and talk about that and how slowly but surely they are gentrifying the internet.

Episode 256 - If that's not NYC, Honey I don't know what is. Ft Brooke Finegold
This week I sit down with Poet Laureate Brooke Finegold. Brooke is an absolutely fantastic poet, comedian and artist. Just filled with a passion which inspires people around her. Not only being a performer in her own right having performed at the Edinburgh Fringe with rave reviews and consistently performing her work round Brooklyn but getting other involved with her Poetry Salon PIG (Poetry is Gay) I had to reach out and see how she got to where she is.
We talk a lot of things in this episode not least the glory which is Lucozade and dealing with loss on the subway but all about creativity in general. Where inspiration hits and how work can vary from the humorous to the scathing given the opportunity so settle in to learn all you can.

Episode 255 - Cost of Living vs Cost of being entertained.
How do you count value in art?
How do you know how much you will pay for anything?
Is it an hourly rate? Based on how much you'd spend on coffee? Your min/max of the product?
Lets take a moment and think. This show costs you nothing but your time but is it worth it? Is it worth the 28.29 mins? Lets talk film, photography, painting and all the plethora in between as we discuss how the cost of living balances with the cost of us finding satisfaction in the products we engage with.

Episode 254 - Dollmation, Illustration and honest exploration Feat Warren Wright @Warrencito
This week I sit down with fantastic artist Warren Wright. I came across Warren whilst exploring my love of stop motion and was instantly taken with the playful nature of his work. Having been artistic and exploring different mediums for years Warren has been in illustration, cartoons and currently is getting critical acclaim for his film making with dollmations.
So we sat down to talk artistic and personal journeys in one of the most open interviews I've had the pleasure of conducting in a long time as we talk, the past the future and everything in between.
You should check out Warren's youtube @74renren and also follow his work on:

Episode 253 - Seven things you cant say on Youtube.
The internet is an odd place, as discussed recently with WTF Pots the length and breadth of what can get you in hot water with the powers that be of any platform is a real challenge for artists and not just in the modern era. In 1966 Lenny Bruce listed out nine words he'd been arrested for in 1972 George Carlin made a statement on his album Class Clown to follow it up with seven words you cant say on TV.
So I thought I'd channel my inner stand up and change the format slightly and discuss all the things you cant discuss on Youtube without the watchful eye of the moderators taking a look. As we discuss not the topics themselves but the premise of what these items create you too can join us as we talk about how to get banned on Youtube.
Here's hoping it doesn't get taken down.
