  • The. Commercials are too LOUD

    I used to love this show but I can't take the commercials. Especially in the

    Middle

    Of the podcast. It's so annoying and they are way too loud! I will no longer listen to this show.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

REWIND: Ep. 01: Duggie Fields - Ministry of Arts Podcast
Q: How do you title your work?
Sometimes I have titles, sometimes I don’t. It's mainly for reference, but the words and the images don't necessarily belong together.
REWIND: Ep. 01: Duggie Fields - Ministry of Arts Podcast
Q: If you wasn't an artist, what would you be?
I really don't know because the only job I did was helping in my parents' shop or working in a record shop during school holidays.
REWIND: Ep. 01: Duggie Fields - Ministry of Arts Podcast
Q: What piece that you've created do you hold most dear?
I don't want to talk too much about it because I sold my all-time favorite painting and didn't get fully paid for it, which is quite painful.
REWIND: Ep. 01: Duggie Fields - Ministry of Arts Podcast
Q: How would you explain what you do or your style to someone who doesn't know your work?
It's difficult because I try to avoid explaining what I do to people who do know my work, but I make paintings on canvas using acrylic paint and I also create digital images and animations.
Ep.253 Peter Stapleton - Ministry of Arts Podcast
Q: What happened when you were recalled to prison?
They found my DNA in the back of a security van, so I got arrested, put away, and about 12 months later they turned around and said, right, you can go, no charges.
