I’ve been a fan of his writing for some time and was excited to have a chance to talk with Jack Cheng. We discuss leading a team, client work vs. working on your own ideas, and — of course — habit fields. Keep listening right to the end as we share a little of our [...]

I’ve been reading the journal of Jon Hicks for about seven years, so it was an absolute pleasure to have him join for an episode. We talked design, parenting, co-working and cheese. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did. Guest Profile Name: Jon Hicks Site: hicksdesign.com The Twitterz: @hicksdesign Bio: Gentleman [...]

Kyle Steed was spending some time in San Francisco, but still took the time to sit down for a chat. I’m glad he did — his thoughtfulness and care into his craft are infectious. Enjoy the show!

It’s not the first time I’ve had a conversation here that reached across many topics. But my chat with Adam King must be at the top of the list for variety. From discussing life in Bangladesh, to discussing social enterprise, to simplicity in design, we touched on a lot. Enjoy the show. Guest Profile Name: [...]

It’s been some time since episode 20, which was the last show I recorded with my co-host Shawn Blanc. Today I had the pleasure of speaking with Shawn, but this time he was the guest. We talked about his impending fatherhood, Apple in the post Steve Jobs era, our consumer culture, and, of course, coffee.

Chatting with an Englishman is always a pleasure. Elliot and I have a great conversation about his start, the changes to his career, and where he’s headed.

I finally had the opportunity to talk one-on-one with Frank Chimero. It was a fun conversation and you can see why he’s a good writer — he’s simply a good communicator. He has the ability to articulate his thoughts in speech as well as the written word. Enjoy the show.

Today’s episode was a different approach. Rather than two hosts, there were two guests. There were a lot of quotable quotes, words of wisdom from both, along with a lively brunch crowd in New York and a barking dog in Montana. It was a pleasure to sit down with Rogie King and Cameron Koczon and [...]

I was excited to have Ryan and Tina Essmaker join me for an episode. My excitement was due in part to their great work on The Great Discontent — as well as their client work — but also due to the fact that they work as a husband/wife team. Listen to the show to hear [...]

It was a pleasure to sit and listen to the charming Irish accent of Andy McMillan. We discussed his projects, Build and The Manual, as well as identity, branding and co-working.
