February 27, 2025 Nancy Chang & Robb Gilbear: The Piano Lesson and the U-Haul Rave
Episode 34

In this week's episode of Atypical Daydream, host Josh Caldwell sits down with Minneapolis-based DJ Nancy Chang and author and former DJ Robb Gilbear.

Nancy shares the story of how she became a musician, an origin story so wild she leads with it every time she makes a new friend. Then Robb Gilbear takes us back to the Toronto rave scene of 1995, where a night of dancing ended with 33 teenagers in the back of a U-Haul truck on a dark highway, and a senior police officer saying something that nobody wanted to hear.

February 13, 2025 Dale Harris & Seth Caldwell: The Tea House by the Lake and the Glowing Ocean
Episode 33

In this week's episode of Atypical Daydream, host Josh Caldwell sits down with 2017 World Barista Champion Dale Harris and world traveler Seth Caldwell.

Dale shares what it was like to accidentally win a world competition and spend the next few years bouncing between continents as coffee's most unlikely celebrity, including a seven-city sprint through China that left him with one memory he can't quite locate on a map. Then Seth Caldwell, Josh's nephew, shares a night on an abandoned beach in Vietnam where something happened in the water that he never saw coming, and the journey that followed across Southeast Asia that ended badly in Cambodia in a way nobody expected.

January 30, 2025 Sima Cunningham & Jessy Schwartz: Carbra Walters Dies on I-10 and the Green Lebaron
Episode 32

In this week's episode of Atypical Daydream, host Josh Caldwell sits down with musician Sima Cunningham of Finom and actor Jessy Schwartz.

Sima shares the story of what happened when the band's beloved van Carbra Walters died on the I-10 in New Mexico on the way to LA, and the series of increasingly painful decisions that followed once they got there. Then Jessy Schwartz shares a very LA story about a stranger who pulled up next to him on the way to an audition, offered to fix the dent on his yellow Lebaron, and delivered something considerably different.

January 16, 2025 Karthik Nagarajan: The Dishes Will Always Keep Coming
Episode 31

In this week's episode of Atypical Daydream, host Josh Caldwell sits down with Karthik Nagarajan.

Karthik grew up in Pune, India in the 1990s, five minutes from the Rajneesh ashram made famous by the Netflix documentary Wild Wild Country, with a French best friend from the commune next door and a father who had very different ideas about what success should look like. He shares how he discovered himself in a country on the edge of globalization, what brought him to the United States, and what he found when he got there. His journey took him from a dishwasher shift in upstate New York to Texas to the San Francisco startup scene, and every stop along the way taught him something about how people see each other and how often they get it wrong.
