This week I speak to the amazing XO Rad Magical- aka Christopher Grant- about his incredible journey as an artist living with schizophrenia. His insights are not only important for others living with schizophrenia- they are also valuable for any human being living in this world. This was one of my favorite interviews in DAS history.

We talk about his inspiration for this epic show, how he spent 2 years painting for the show, his art education at CalArts, teaching at CalArts, working in the animation industry, and tons more! We really only scratched the surface of his long career so he has agreed to come on the pod again in the near future!

Also, a quick art life update.
