Rarely have I listened to a podcast that takes the time to pause and explain terms and concepts. I look forward to the next episode.

So fun listening to Beeple talk about his rise in the art world as an outsider, from the beginning to now—can't wait for episode 2!
griffith.w · Mar 2023
This is the first unfavorable podcast review I have ever felt compelled to write. Really wanted to learn about the art market and corrections it might be going through but found the episode unhelpful/uniformative and the attitude of the speaker felt like he was “above” all of us listeners. I thought you might want to know how it came off to at least this one listener.
