Discussions on artistic works that hold deep meaning for Aaron, a life-long reader, and Max, a life-long avoider of reading who finally decided it was ok to read. Aaron writes poetry . . . a lot, and Max can play any instrument he spends 30 seconds looking at. They are father and son. They are both allegedly humanoid. Each has enough quirks to drive most people mad, yet they are both married. To actual and real humanoids of the female persuasion, in this dimension and plane of existence at least. Come along for the ride. Stay for the chaos. Ponder our pontifications and enjoy!

    LPIS 50: Field Report 5

    It's that most wonderful time again where we look back over the last nine episodes and reflect and where we've been while this time discussing public speaking, honesty, empathy, and how Olivia the pig is a lot. Enjoy! See ya soon! https://linktr.ee/likepigsinspace?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=857fb71c-a298-4e9f-84a8-b64118650305

    LPIS 49: How To Be Okay When Nothing Is Okay

    Sometimes we may feel like an excited teddy bear running around with our head only attached by a column of fluff, but Jenny Lawson tells us in her book How To Be Okay When Nothing Is Okay that that is not always a bad way to be. Enjoy! https://linktr.ee/likepigsinspace?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=35a78e19-c36a-44c0-8acb-373263c26c43

    LPIS 48: Sufjan Stevens

    Few artists are able to take wave after wave of constant devastation and continually turn it into something beautiful, but Sufjan Stevens is one of those mystical few that can and we find that out as we examine his albums Illinoise, Carrie and Lowell, and Javelin. Enjoy! https://linktr.ee/likepigsinspace?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=a0c96a4e-e7bf-47f1-947e-45fc65d6b503!

    LPIS 47: Pizza

    Arguably the most perfect intersection of art and culture, pizza provides for all equally and is often tied directly to the identity of major cities. Rich or poor, old or young, everyone can come together and gather around that wonderful, saucy disk we call pizza. Enjoy a slice! https://linktr.ee/likepigsinspace?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=6e812d68-de4d-44b3-bf17-cbeed7d6721d

    LPIS 46: Mike Birbiglia

    A body of work is examined and a realization is made as Max talks about his favorite comedian, Mike Birbiglia, while also looking back at the history of comedy, media that has effected his sense of humor, and how his favorite art in any genre is largely story based. Enjoy! https://linktr.ee/likepigsinspace?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=76c83c97-c30c-4d87-aa32-0ad445fc30a1

    LPIS 45: Philip Johnson

    Around us are leviathans. Hulking figures that control our lives. We can either accept their protection or risk overexposure. Some choose to shape these leviathans into their own vision. One who did, while problematically so, was the architect Philip Johnson. Enjoy! https://linktr.ee/likepigsinspace?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=2ebc90a3-e7fa-4013-9d84-e1db0d2939b9

    LPIS 44: Wallsocket

    By following the lives of three girls in a fictional Michigan town, Wallsocket by underscores is able to explore themes of race, wealth, identity, religion, obsession, and manipulation through bombastic production and clever songwriting. Enjoy! https://linktr.ee/likepigsinspace?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=e7bc40df-3aca-4a4d-884b-bd9a62851247

    LPIS 43: The B-52s

    Since their debut album, The B-52s have written and performed music that doesn’t care who you are or what you think of them. All they ask is the same thing they’ve asked since their first Valentine’s Day show: dance. Enjoy! https://linktr.ee/likepigsinspace?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=637a79ed-fa89-4557-9b91-039a641927d4
