Bill’s headed to Paris on a jet plane, so we’ve got a short one for you today. The recent story of the demise of Moog synths (again) gets us talking about brands and gear and whether the tools being made with art and intention effects the results you get from those tools. Skate and music photographer Glen E. Friedman is Photographer of the Week.

Jeffery learns that Bill doesn’t play games, enjoy Halloween, or watch comedy, so they spend some time unpacking all of that that. I guess they’re not playing Jeffery’s Dreamcast together. The Manet/Degas show at The Met is discussed and a bit of Camera Corner because Bill played with an M10 and the new Fugi GFX 100 II this week. Arno Rafael Minkkinen is our Photographer of the Week.

How do we distinguish between things we make for us and things we make for money? That, submarine references, and a fairly deep dive into Bill’s old Drabbles project.

What’s Jeffery working on lately? If not, why not? Also, does everyone think they’re a fraud deep down and just keep it to themselves? Christian Witkin is our Photographer of the Week.
