Welcome to part two of my conversation with Larsen McBride. In about ten minutes, I'm about to have my mind blown. Thankfully, Larsen helps m...

Our guest this week is singer/songwriter, producer, visual artist, designer, photographer, cycling and outdoors enthusiast, Jacob Adams. Impressive as it may be, it’s not the long list of talents that compels me to pursue a closer friendship with this renaissance man, it’s what lies at the source—a heart with a passion for communication and a desire to learn and grow from its pain. Today, we discuss the power of that pain and ...

Welcome to the second part of my conversation with Darby Delane. We discuss our complicated relationship with academic gatekeeping, our goal to remain a student for the rest of our lives, and the combined discomfort and joy that comes with letting our masked selves die. I recall my childhood lesson in gender equality on the basketball court while Darby teases us with a dirty secret about the crucifix, we express our deep longi...

Our guest this week is John David Eriksen. I’ve only just begun my friendship with John David, but I’ve quickly found myself awestruck by their commitment to their passions and their practice. They are a multi-instrumentalist with an inspired relationship to the cello and bass, and they are an accomplished sound engineer, mixer, and producer.

In the second half of my conversation with Lexi, we give everyone permission to be a singer, we share our love and fear for our community, and we try to find a way to build up that community with space for our differences.
