Podcast Topics

  • Future of AI

    Will design schools even exist in the future? Will we still have an industry? And what happens to creativity when machines can make everything? Jessica and Timothy explore the fears, uncertainties, and possible futures facing artists and designers as AI rapidly transforms the creative world.

  • Album Covers

    What makes an album cover iconic? And does album art even matter anymore when it’s reduced to a tiny two-inch square on Spotify? Whatever happened to holding a record in your hands? Can we still roll joints on them? Jessica and Timothy debate the greatest album covers of all time, and what makes them unforgettable.

  • Dating App Design

    Why does finding love feel more like shopping on Amazon? And what would happen if we tried to redesign the entire dating experience? Jessica and Timothy unpack the psychology, branding, and user experience of modern dating and ask whether good design can actually help us find love.
