Apple Podcasts/Spotify
My brain is so burnt out from the insanity of the past week month?
that a simple declaration of quiet enthusiasm seems to be a revelation to my ears.
Episodes ofEnthusiast!are short and sweet, typically clocking in at around five minutes.
Thats all you need, really.
No reason to overstay the welcome, nor delve too deep into the weeds.
In a way, this is revealing.
This might be a story about apples, but itsreallya story about America, or something like that.
It can be hard to remember that.
The A24 Podcast
Apple Podcasts|Spotify
The A24 Podcastis thoroughly confusing.
The A24 Podcastis significantly weirder than that.
And sometimes, when the unexpectedness of the pairing clicks,it really clicks.
Look no further than the most recent installment, which paired Nathan Fielder with Alexa Demie.
Fielder is the creator and star of the cathartically bizarreNathan For You.
Demie played the riveting Maddy Perez inEuphoria.
Both are fans of each others work.
An awkward, fascinating, and pretty heart-warming conversation ensues.
Writing aboutEnthusiast!got me all excited about short podcasts.
In practice, its fist-pumping great.
And thats a wrap for1.5x Speed!
Hope you enjoyed it.
