Ohhhhh boy, it’s that season, it’s that time, it’s Halloween, baby!

Comics, Mind Maintenance, and Travel with Lucy Bellwood
Length: 01:35:00
Synopsis:
Join Calvin as he sits down with illustrator, adventurer, Boatist (it's a real word now), and comics maker Lucy Bellwood amidst her book tour of 100 Demon Dialogues. The book explores the relationship many creators have with their inner critic/imposter syndrome/anxiety, and is a relatable and oftentimes lighthearted look at this very present "demon".

This podcast episode explores these themes as well as travel, the boundaries of being a working artist in social scenarios, the weirdness of being in the Digital World, and the business of doing all of this while maintaining a healthy and productive outlook! Listen to hear more!

Coated in Filth
Length: 01:05:11
Synopsis: Winter in Minneapolis is a time for many things: shoveling, wearing lots of layers, shivering... But it's also a time for learning and researching while cooped up in our respective homes. As we begin our hopeful shift into spring, we take a minute to discuss our favorite books, factoids, fantasies, and life thoughts. We might be getting over colds and the winter blues, but we're all fired up for the coming of productivity and warmth!
