  • Ignorant Host

    Wyatt from Grant Stone seems like a good guy, makes great boots, and obviously does a good job overseeing his Chinese operation. Kirkland, on the other hand, is an ignoramus, as evidenced by his not even knowing the language spoken in the vast majority of mainland China. Chinese manufacturing didn’t get a bad reputation because of racism. And it’s not because people think Chinese workers are incapable. It’s because there’s a long, documented history of unscrupulous factory owners downgrading qu... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Photography Is Human: A Conversation with Leica’s Karin Rehn-Kaufmann
Q: What separates a photograph that lasts 50 years from one that trends online for 24 hours?
The emphasis is on images that tell a story and connect on a human level; lasting photographs evoke emotion and memory, whereas trend-focused images may lack lasting significance.
Photography Is Human: A Conversation with Leica’s Karin Rehn-Kaufmann
Q: Do you believe taste in photography is learned or instinctual?
She explains there are two parts: learning and emotional resonance; great photographers serve as role models, while the emotional impact of a image determines whether it sticks with a viewer over time.
Photography Is Human: A Conversation with Leica’s Karin Rehn-Kaufmann
Q: What was photography like for you growing up?
Karin describes an early exposure to photography through family and education, a transition from other interests to a lifelong involvement with image-making and art history, and the motivation to create spaces that celebrate photography beyond conventional galleries.
Stage Clothes and Nunchucks with Kevin Morby
Q: What was it like working with Aaron Dessner on the new record?
He describes Dessner as bringing a sense of restraint and spaciousness, helping the songs breathe and feel big without becoming maximalist, and noting the collaboration brought a fresh, ethereal quality to the tracks.
Stage Clothes and Nunchucks with Kevin Morby
Q: How has living in multiple cities influenced your songwriting and identity?
He explains that each city leaves distinct impressions that colour his music and live performances, with shifts in mood and sonic approach depending on location.
