Episode 27 - Amateurism
"We make things because we are alive". In this episode we’re all about how now is a time for art with messy edges. Hear about the aesthetics and language of DIY podcasting; the amateurs who make the web work; and the glamorising of the side hustle. We ask do qualifications matter? Why do we say "that’s on brand for me"? Plus a whole lot on joy, Oscar Wilde, boxing, and the “gentlemen amateur ”.
