    #04 - Eric Wang - Good Taste Vs. Approval

    Eric and I chat about what it’s like attending to the needs of a massive audience while trying to protect your own taste. Home decor trends, experimentation, and the never ending grind of figuring out what actually feels right in your own space. A good reminder that taste evolves.

    #01 - Joseph Morrison @joey_driftwood - DIY Isn't About Being Cheap

    In the first episode of That Could Be True, I sit down with Joseph Morrison @joey_driftwood for a loose conversation about DIY, decor trends, and who actually gets access to good taste. We talk about why design can feel gatekept, how social media shapes our aesthetic instincts, and why doing things yourself isn’t about being cheap, it’s about having agency. Joey shares his thoughts on accessibility, resisting trend cycles, and building spaces that actually reflect who you are. Nothing here is settled. We’re just talking it through. Some of this might be wrong. More of my stuff - https://www.instagram.com/cinemagravy/?hl=en
