There is so much that can be said about photographer, chair sculptor, burgeoning musician... You know what, you'll have to listen to the episode to hear the myriad things Cary can do, or is learning how to do.

In this episode, we talk about how a fascination with chairs lead to the Dadaist adjacent, stacking sculpture project chairs are people. We then segue into what happens when it all falls down and learning the best lessons from failing forward, and picking up the pieces for his fine art jigsaw puzzle project timeless.goods. Finally we dive head-first into our shared love of Japan and the ease at which it was to exist while being Black there. SPOILER ALERT: Police actually know how to do their jobs there.
