Victoria Black is a Senior Art Director and Freelance Designer. Victoria’s freelance clients include Grey Advertising, Art Directors Club, Simon & Schuster, Harper Collins, and Macmillan Publishers. In this podcast, Ms. Black talks about working as a designer in the book publishing industry for many years and their transition to doing design in Advertising. We jump around on a lot of topics, from plant-based food, veganism, and vegan culture, getting into therapy, becoming a member of the Satanic Temple, and Emo music through the years; I talk about mixing up Gene Simmons and Richard Simmons names in a Hot Topic, my favorite Mr. Rodgers conspiracy theory that is definitely not true.

Akeem has also published a bunch of cartoons in the New Yorker.

Akeem and I talk about a lot of things, including working at Starbucks while getting their art practice together, cheap windowless apartments in NYC, working in-house as an illustrator/animator, maintaining friendships, getting scammed by barbers, finding friendship on Xanga, and the Bachelor Nation.

Jeremy Nguyen is a cartoonist and illustrator. He is a regular contributor to the New Yorker and has illustrated a few books, including his latest author/illustrator title, “Can I pet your dog?” In our conversation, we reflect on our 20’s in Brooklyn and how we’re glad we’re in our 30’s; Jeremy’s past life working at a comedy club, I struggle to remember the term “indie sleaze,” finding and building a space for community, and so much more.
