Note sure why my song of the year didn’t hit the heights it deserved.
The only thing that could make Honey by Wildligh and The Polish Ambassdor any better would be to obtain a copy of the lyrics.

2020 is the Year of the Podcast.
While everyone is now publishing content. I found that I had to limit how many podcasts I could follow.
Art, Design, Coding, Philosophy, and History are my main interests.
With TalkArt & Design Matters topping my list of favorite podcast for 2020. I actually listened to the entire back catalog of TalkArt – so feeling inspired.
You couldn’t listen to a better creative blog than Design Matters by Debbie Millman. Debbie Millman has been broadcasting independently for over 15 years. And sets a high bar for quality content.
