Dad to Me

Episode 5 - Kim & Ems


Listen Later

Kim is the rock and roll dad you wished you had. From a solid start trotting around 70s Europe via highly unconventional means, to his mature gig as a Jack Nicholson lookalike, Kim has the role of hip architect down pat. But there have been a lot of kinks and twists along the way. Listen in as Kim’s daughter Ems—also an outstanding architect and architectural historian—gets him on some real pressure points: pride and regret in fatherhood, marital conflict, anger and ill-health, and that all important staple of every middle-aged dad’s existence: routine. Come for the honest reckoning with the past, stay for the recommendation on what one does under the influence of quaaludes.

N.B. Ems interview portions were recorded remotely from halfway around the world; expect a little variation in the audio here 'n' there.
