ON THE COUCH

by John Chamberlain Estate

ON THE COUCH invites you into the inspiring worlds of today’s cultural leaders. Join host Alexandra Fairweather as she sits down with guests on one of artist John Chamberlain’s iconic foam couches to discuss the big ideas and unseen details that shape creative life. For decades, Chamberlain carved his sculptural foam couches for friends and art world luminaries like Donald Judd and Andy Warhol, creating gathering spots, conversation pieces, and symbols of connection within a vibrant creative community. Today, that legacy lives on through ON THE COUCH as visionaries sit down for intimate conversations that will make you rethink how culture is created, consumed, and reinvented. Hosted on Acast.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Randomly came across this wonderful podcast while working on a new body of work. I’m currently an artist in residence (in PA), but live in Taos, NM and am an alumnx of CalARTS. I feel so connected to the artists and the little bits of Chamberlain you pepper into the conversations. What a curious concept and inspirational series. Every artist should follow this podcast! 🚀

BeatNicki · Jul 2026

I was down on my yoga mat, opened up my Apple Podcasts & this gem popped up — I thought it was going to be about psychoanalysis — it’s far better! From the upbeat cool/smooth jazz theme, to the avant garde Shelter Island John Chamberlain Estate, Museum, & outlandish, outsize couch where the art convo takes place — it’s really good! It’s a complete departure — & deftly woven marketing for the Chamberlain Estate. Host Alexandra is smart & comfortably chic, possessing a brilliant combo of conversational & interview skills. Plus, she’s gently funny, downright sweet & always finds a way to weave in Chamberlain’s artistic journey with that of the guest artist. She asks such good questions about how the guest artist’s creative journey began & its evolutions, executions, visions, & innovations. The couch makes it relaxed & it’s a hilarious context for jazz & convo! It’s also so calming & I love the video, which I can glance at as I do my practice, mostly listening. Highly recommend — Thank You!
