  • Lost Americana
    Paul and Todd sit down with Chicago based photojournalist Vincent David Johnson to talk about his documentary photo project, 'Lost Americana'. For the last 20-years Johnson has ventured out across America to find vestiges of the country's once booming agriculture society. Johnson describes the project on http://www.lostamericana.com - "Lost Americana is a record of a fading bit of American history, before the land that helped build it, reclaims the buildings and people who once made it great."

  • How big is your lens?

    It's John Deere Classic week for the photographers at the Dispatch/Argus. In this week's edition of the podcast the boys talk a little tech and swap some funny stories about covering the PGA's John Deere Classic. They also shamelessly beg actor and golfer Bill Murray to appear on the podcast during his visit to the area to play in the John Deere Classic Pro-Am on Wednesday July 8, 2015. ToddM and Bill Murray both hail from Wilmette, Illinois so it seems to be a no-brainer - right? Check out our new blog at http://talkingpicturespodcast.blogspot.com
