Our guest this week is Conor Mitchell: nurturing dad dedicated to making space for the clunkiness of youth, devoted partner who says I love you and, and the kind of friend who will yes and my jokes just as fervently as he does my hopes and dreams. Conor is a seeker guided by curiosity, a journeyman undaunted by anomalous paths, an artist who ignores the boundaries of genre and a therapist who is far too good at getting me to talk too much. Join us in our attempt to redefine cool, to grapple with the reality that the people we love the most are the ones we hurt the most, to traverse the condemnation of gym bros, and to make space for clunkiness. Stick around at the end of the episode for some of Conor’s original tunes from his project, Lathe of Tongues. And keep an ear open for his current project with his partner, Lexi Braun—Soft Opening. Thank you for finding your way here today. Enjoy.
