In the first episode of Season 4, "A Different World," Addoley and Anna are back after one and a half years, recording from Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Stavanger, Norway. Addoley and Anna tally things that have changed for them during the pandemic: Addoley learning Spanish and Anna becoming a mother.
David Ashley Kerr is the first guest of the season. David is a curator and artist, who lives and works in Riga. Latvia. He helps Addoley and Anna give advice on how to stay out of the grind, how to avoid the "how's your project going" conversation, as well as what one can offer as an artist to a partner. In the other half of the episode, Addoley and Anna bring in Inga Meldere, an artist from Latvia who lives in Helsinki. The questions that Inga chose to help Addoley and Anna's listeners with are connected to parenting. How to be an artist and mother when your partner has other expectations in life? What to do if your child is an extrovert and you're an introvert?
