I’ve been thinking a lot recently about how to grow this podcast, and my Substack - spoook.substack.com - and Spoook – the creative hub that bore it and so many of my other projects – and my comics, and the music I make. All the things. Actually, I should rephrase that. I’ve been thinking, not about how I can grow, but how I can connect.
Part of this thought process has been inspired by Bristol based creative whizzbang Laura Kidd, aka Penfriend, aka She Makes War, aka founder of The Correspondent’s Club, aka host of the Attention Engineer podcast (one of my favourites that), aka one half of Obey Robots, her project with friend of Spoook, Rat, from Ned's Atomic Dustbin, aka, with Penfriend, the auteur of 2021’s excellent Exotic Monsters album, aka session musician to the stars, aka woman with the best spectacles on the planet, aka… the person I’m in conversation with on this episode. I learned things. Maybe you’ll learn things. Maybe you’ll just have fun. And that’s fine. Sometimes just having fun is fine. This isn’t school.
