2024-03-0549 minPodcast with RaisinsEpisode 10: MargauxIt's been only two and a half years since the last episode! Last night I walked to my friend Margaux Williamson's house. We talked outside her studio in the rain, and then inside her studio where the walls were covered with nearly-finished and recently finished paintings. We discuss the catalogue essay that Ben Lerner wrote for her recent show at the McMichael Gallery outside Toronto, and we talk about each other's defence mechanisms a bit. (When Margaux says "married," she means "in a committed relationship.")

2024-03-051h 04Podcast with RaisinsEpisode 5: The Play Reading (Bonus Episode)My friend Kathryn told me not to put this one up, because it made me seem like I was too satisfied with my art, whereas in fact I am very critical and I never stop trying to make it better. I have decided to put this episode up because the play never did get produced, this tiny reading was the only really success that the play had, and so it makes sense in retrospect to have been so happy and gratified by it, since an audience of about six or seven (which is what we had) was about as...

Frequency HorizonEpisode 135 ~ How Sheila Heti arranges her sentences, MC Fava sings, Michael B DJ mix (Italy)From hitting the waves at Montara State Beach during a milky twilight, to reconnecting with Fava MC (and discovering he's a teacher back in Germany), to getting to meet my favourite author Sheila Heti (who also happens to be Canadian but has a rad global outlook), I’ve been reminded of just how magical life can be. (Not to mention I put out my second-ever newspaper as an official editor).

I learned more about arranging sentences from a delightfully quirky yet utterly confident literary master, about managing frequencies on the fly in a live club environment (@mc...

LongformEpisode 294: Sheila HetiSheila Heti is the author of seven books. Her latest is Motherhood: A Novel.
“[My parents] were afraid for me. As anybody who has a kid who wants to be a writer. I think they understood it was a hard life. It was a life in which you wouldn’t necessarily make enough money. It was a life in which you might be setting yourself up for a great amount of disappointment. My dad’s father was a painter, so there was in him this idea that it wasn’t so crazy to him. It wasn’t so outside his understand...
