You can't teach a new dog old tricks
Brad shares an AMAZING fact he learned about teaching business to art-school students. They don't want it. They don't think they need it, and they resist attempts to expose them to it! It turns out, you can't teach a new dog old tricks. And that couldn't be a more depressing thought.
Show Notes
In this episode, Cartoonists Dave and Brad are talking shop. They share which pieces of original art they would most like to have. Then, it's on to tips and tricks for selling prints. Next, Brad revisits the "social media/ fool's gold" discussion. Then, as Brad approached fifty, the lads talk about preparing for old age. That takes a wild turn as Brad shares an AMAZING fact he learned about teaching business to art-school students. And finally, despite Brad's gain being turned up waaaaaay too high in this recording, a listener asks how they keep their show sounding so good. Most of the time.
BUT FIRST... Brad has a dirty throttle body. Just like Dave always suspected.
