Ted Riederer - Never Records

This episode, I'm in NYC chatting to the artist and founder of the community art installation - Never Records.

True to that philosophy, Ted was kind enough to invite me to his home to record this episode, where I met his two beautiful kids, who are also a part of this episode!
