Am I the only one that got the May 18th show again instead of the June 1st?

[kirklondon]

Nevermind, I re-subscribed and it is fixed.

I really enjoyed the interview with Drew. What a humble guy. I think it is also facinating that he was really so far outside the "hubb bubb" of what his artwork represented. Yet captured it so well that many times his visuals are what we think about in our own minds eye.

The app exclusive was a fun listen. I'm sure some people in traffic were confused hearing the characters reading scenes from ANH when next to me at a red light.
