  • Great content, thoughtful interviews

    I appreciate the range of art historical and contemporary topics covered—always entertaining and informative listening. The hosts’ (esp. Kate and Naomi) openness to controversial topics and interviewees is refreshing in a realm that is often reactive and judgmental in its criticism.

    Smart and accessible! A great look inside the art world. I do wish they would dwell a bit more on art and a little less on the art *market*. But overall some excellent conversations.
