Episode Synopsis

How do you explain your job to a kid? How do our career choices affect who we become as people? And how do our day jobs shape our approach to personal creative projects? If you've ever faced these questions yourself — or were just dying to hear about working in corporate marketing — this one's for you.  .......... Show notes: Thanks to the generous contributors to Freesound.org for two key sounds for this episode: office ambience, and Lego bricks.  And thanks also to the musicians of Blue Dot Sessions for this quirky song. Other music from Storyblocks.   As I was audio editing this piece, I realized that one of the ingredients in the creative stewpot had been the lovelorn caveman persona from the short story "I love girl," by Simon Rich. Enjoy!
