    Ep 34: I Think, Therefore I Draw w/ Jeff Barlow

    Over in Seattle, in a well-seasoned bar, somewhere in a single situated chair with a particularly choice view sits our guest today, Mr. Jeff Barlow, waiting. He’s got a sketchpad, stuff to draw with, and an impressive ability to trust his own process in the moment - the envy of any creative. The band, who’s about to provide live music for the night, is about to have their picture taken, and not in the way they’re probably used to. Draw it in One, Jeff’s professional tagline, refers to how he approaches his sketches. He draws the band in, well, one song. The result is raw and often emotional moments of what he sees in front of him in that amount of time. I think his work is a fantastic example of how trusting the process can be riveting, scary, and beautiful. I, an overthinker, find a lot of lessons in that.

    This episode is with the genuinely badass Sarah Philp, owner of Little Bear Tattoo Co. in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. Her recent few years have been quite the wild ride of growth as she has become the owner of her own tattoo shop.

    Ep 29: The Currents of Electric Energy, Cultural Shocks Included w/ Bri "Peebs" Crotinger

    This week a long-time friend of the podcast returns to guest host, Bri AKA Peebs. The concept of electrification (the large-scale switch to electrical energy from fossil fuels) is one gaining attention in recent months following the signing of the historic Inflation Reduction Act. We agree we need to switch away from fossil fuels urgently, but we also have opinions.

    Ep 27: The Coffee Industry's Tip Culture - Boon or Bummer? w/ Aaron Jordan

    This episode I got to discuss one of my favorite industries, coffee! I'm joined by the hilarious and delightful Aaron Jordan of Roast House Coffee, a Certified Organic coffee roaster based in Spokane, Washington. Aaron shares his history of how he got started in coffee, why he's stayed in it for 17 years now, and the opportunities he sees with the knowledge he's gained throughout the years. We also spend a great deal of time discussing tip culture, both in the coffee industry and at large. It's always a treat for me to explore the coffee world further.
