- 76 - Behind the Zines
Just another episode of Creative Banter, but this time, I’m too lazy to record a proper introduction.

47 min - 75 - Self-Made Torment
We’re talking in circles, evidently about nothing, and about everything, all at once, this episode. With Ben having sent off his zine files to the printers, a conversation ensues around the zine as a lesser quality monograph and other comparisons between those two mediums of photographic presentation. And as usual, I speak on about self-made torment as I continue debating various nonsensical aspects of my creative life. Oh! There’s also some puppy talk in this episode, which is becoming a pretty regular segment since Emmie’s arrival.

44 min - 74 - Screaming Chipmunk
After a few weeks of introspection, Ben may have finally learned why he did not have the dreaded First Day Funk on his recent trip to Zion: a diversification of interests. With this, comes a conversation around the interconnectedness of everything, as well as questioning the true importance of stepping out of one’s comfort zone. We also ask many questions this week, including how many people is too many people; would the Flintstones have any tricks to remembering information; and what, exactly, does a screaming chipmunk have to do with photography?

42 min - 73 - Dogs Love Peanut Butter
For me, photography is a pathway toward finding meaning in life and healing my mind, body, and soul. The process through which my photographs are made is quite important, and when I find a system that works, it is best to stick with it. This week, Ben and I work through this philosophy, while also discussing whether every photographer truly needs a large body of work. Further, we discuss the lack of desire to be seen as an authority figure, as well as how much dogs love peanut butter.

45 min - 72 - Josh the Ghost
As if any of us needed a reminder how good Ben has it, he is back from his fall trip to Zion National Park, and boy did he run through a lot of film this time around. After we discuss how much the film and development cost him, as well as some other exciting details, we discuss puppy separation anxiety and how being new to something may lead to a higher competitive drive. We end this week with a new project I am embarking on, that I am equally excited and apprehensive about.

44 min - 71 - Maintain Sanity
It seems my traditional bad luck has made its way through the microphone, latching onto Ben this week, as he struggles with multiple setbacks of varying degrees. First, his primary hard drive fails; then, his 4Runner needs repair; but that’s not all. Still, there lies here a lesson on patience and that, at the end of the day, these are only things. Things which can be fixed, or replaced. We end this episode with a discussion on Threads, Meta’s competitor to Twitter, which I have found myself playing around with quite a bit. We’ll see how long that lasts.

44 min - 70 - Old But Happy
Emmie gets a bit restless this episode and needs to step out of the studio, which leaves just Ben and I to lead the conversation. Not ideal, but we make it work. With the second issue of Nature Vision Magazine out in the world, we touch base with how that has been received, as well as the importance of representing lesser-known photographers. In a call-back to Episode 36 - Creeping on Social Media, screen time is brought up yet again, which leads to discussion on the correlation between happiness and age.

48 min - 69 - Oatmeal
The puppy adventures have officially begun, starting with this episode. As Emmie, the adorable CavaPoo, sits on my lap, Ben and I tackle a number of topics this week, none of which seem to go together at first. We talk about our ability to see being impaired by poor genetics and growing older; slimy marketing tactics that just don’t feel right; and Nature Vision MagazineIssue 2, which was recently released. From last week, we continue our discussion about Ben’s upcoming zine, and we do something a bit new: checking in with how each of us is feeling.

44 min - 68 - Gotta Move
If you like the sound of a tractor mowing the lawn in the background, you’re going to love this episode. But even if you’re not a fan or background noise, there’s still plenty to enjoy, like Ben’s 73-mile cycling to Torrey Pines and Cody’s recent success with a print sale. There’s also discussion around writing more deep and personal stories, and a shared obsession with constant movement.

45 min - 67 - Realities of the World
Life is hard. So you get a puppy, because they’re man’s best friend and some say they make everything better. Until you realize that raising a puppy and keeping it from terrorizing the environment around you, is also hard. So you start going to therapy, as a way to deal with this hardship. But therapy forces you to face emotions you’ve buried away years ago. And that, too, is hard. And now you realize even your introduction to this podcast episode is rambling on about, ultimately nothing. I suppose these are just the realities of the world.
