Episode 22 | Tim Felten

Hi! 

I lacked time to deal with a guest this week so I'm throwing up a placeholder which is me tellin you a roundabout way that phonographics was born. 

I actually enjoyed telling the story but as my brain works, each story is attached to 20 others, especially when it's about something I've been doin for almost 30 years, which is screenprinting. 

I'm headed to San Francisco to pop up and sell my wares at Madone Art Bar on Saturday 3/27/2021. if you're around tha Bay I'd love to see you.
