🎙️ We sit down with Laura Howe—art curator, storyteller, and sharp observer of the creative world. With years of experience behind the scenes in galleries and institutions, Laura brings a powerful perspective on the curator’s role as the “producer” of the art world.
Laura opens up about the delicate and dynamic relationship between artists and their patrons, how context shapes meaning in art, and the ongoing debate between illustration and fine art. From modernism to postmodernism, she breaks down how craft, vision, and audience all play a role in defining what we call “art.”
This episode is an eye-opening dive into the structures behind the scenes—the people and systems that influence what gets seen, funded, and remembered. Whether you’re an artist, collector, or curious creator, this one’s packed with insight and fresh takes on creativity in practice.
🎧 Tune in for a thoughtful conversation that bridges visual art, cultural influence, and the hidden forces that shape it all.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
