    How would you define "visual pollution"? In this episode, Rae and Andi tackle the visual blights that affect us all. Where is the line between advertising and art? What's intrusive, what adds to the streetscape? We start by discussing our producer's documentary feature This Space Available and go from there. Join us!

    Episode 16: Postcards
    Aug 12 2025
    Most mail is spam, or maybe bills. But postcards! Getting a postcard is a joyful little moment, and then you can keep it on your fridge, or your mantel, or a shoebox, and then every time you look at it you get another little burst of joy. So this month, Rae and Andi talk about postcards and share postcards and generally appreciate all things postcard. Hope we can encourage you to send some to your loved ones! 📫

    Apr 8 2025
    This month, we are going metal! Listen along as we talk all about nails and saws. No tetanus shot required (though make sure you're up to date.) Rae and Andi cover the history of nails from the handmade ones of yore to the ones you have in your toolbox. We also talk about saw technology through the years. If you don't know the difference between a bandsaw, circular saw, and table saw, we're here to serve. And don't forget to wear your PPE if you decide to apply anything you learn.

    Mar 11 2025
    Rae, Andi, and special guest Colin enjoyed a night at the movies in RVA. We went to the historic, beautiful Byrd Theatreto see a French movie from the 1960s you've likely never heard of. But it's really good, we promise! We hope you'll sit back, grab some popcorn, and listen to our thoughts on Playtime and the joys of making fun of modernism. 🍿📽️
