Episode 18
Thursday, 17 July, 2025
What happens when the thing you made in the dark suddenly ends up in the spotlight? This week, Patrick gets personal about the strange pressure of being “featured,” and why attention might be the most creatively dangerous drug of all.From a viral photo in the dunes to the slow collapse of chasing relevance, this episode dives into the algorithm’s indifference to honesty, the myth of momentum, and what Johnny Cash’s American Recordings can still teach us about making art that matters.This is for the ones who still believe in disappearing. In pausing. In letting the light hit you… without immediately bottling it.Includes a clip from “The Beast in Me” by Johnny Cash (used with reverence, not profit).All other music licensed via Artist.io.Episode photograph by Casey Horner — Instagram: @mischievous_penguins.
