ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Hearing Barry Manilow explain why he writes songs has Teresa and Joy asking each other why they create? Joy has one word that captures her motivation as a creator, and Teresa pinpointed several words that drive her metalsmithing. Miniature paintings and one-sentence-stories have led Teresa into a rabbit hole, and Joy reads up on the Edmund Fitzgerald. Comments are still coming in from the digital detox episode, including one from Insta artsytypespod follower aeaea.jewellery. The episode wraps up with Jordache jeans and a favorite clothing item from Esprit.
