What really happens on install day… when the truck doors open and the pressure is on? In this unfiltered Rapid-Fire episode of On the Move: The Art of Installation, hosts Caralee and Kelly Caudelle trade their masterclass mics for something a little more dangerous, honest answers. No fluff. No PR polish. Just real talk from the front lines of interior installation. From designer missteps to $28,000 “oops” moments, this episode pulls back the curtain on what installers actually see, fix, and (...

Kelly and Caralee break down exa...

Airports can anxiety machines dressed up in statement architecture. So how do you design for delight in the different modes people turn up in, while building something designed to last decades?Chris Belisle cut his teeth on airports in Asia in the mid-2000s, when the growth was so relentless that a firm would hand an entire airport to a designer barely out of school and tell him to get on with it. Think Hong Kong, India, the Philippines etc. I assume most architects spend their twenties detailing

Most people see a slackline, a motorcycle, or a recurve bow and think, “That’s not me.” Chris DeLorenzo sees the same things and signs up for lessons. He taught himself to slackline one summer. He has a motorcycle license he has never used. For a while, he wondered if he was quietly training for the apocalypse. In this episode, we talk with Chris about his years as lead designer and art director at Johnny Cupcakes, his move into illustration for places like The New York Times, and the 500-foo...

Hello! This is Episode 424. This is Way #24 of the 44 Ways to Create Your Sustainable Home series, and we’re in the final stretch of Section Five: The Building Envelope. In the last episode, we went through the types of insulation, what R-values mean, and how to think about products for your ceiling, walls, and floor. This episode is the follow-up to that: what happens when the product is specified, the quote is signed, and the installer shows up. Because that’s where a lot of the

CDFAM Computational Design Symposium — Washington DC 2026Juan Alonso · LuminaryThe next decade of great-power competition will be won or lost in the engineering loop. Adversaries have increased the speed of iteration in hypersonics, undersea platforms, and autonomous aircraft and the U.S. defense industrial base cannot keep up by relying on traditional engineering workflows. Closing that gap requires a step-change in how programs are developed with AI-accelerated engineering.LinksTalk page with full

Florists are incredibly resourceful—which is probably why we can function inside some truly questionable systems for YEARS. In this episode, I’m sharing five systems I genuinely can’t imagine running my floral business without anymore—and how each one has evolved as my business has grown. This isn’t about convincing you that you need five new tools by Friday. It’s about noticing where you’ve gotten really good at compensating for unnecessary chaos... and where one better system might ma...

We recorded this episode in March 2026 with Gabrielle De La Puente. We talk about the surrealism of disability, writing as a desirous act, and academic gatekeeping. It ended up being way too long because we got carried away. This is roughly the second half of what we recorded, because it’s got the most juice in it. Sorry if it has references to earlier conversations you haven’t heard yet. I don’t know if you can tell, but we are very new to making a podcast. Maybe in the future we’ll release the

No need to break your Duolingo streak, when Stephanie Tuerk joins us to make a case for learning languages. She traces her journey from high school French to PhD-era German to humbling Russian, arguing that language learning is less about fluency and more about a gateway into culture, history, and a completely different relationship with your own mind. Stephanie also reflects on the rare pleasure of being a deliberate beginner, and why a language class might be one of the last great third spaces

Katja Alissa Mueller grew up in Switzerland, studied economics and law because it was the only option left by exclusion, lasted four years, and then walked into an internship at the main theatre in Zurich on what she describes as a complete whim. That year, she says, set up everything that followed, even though she had no idea it would at the time. She is now Head of Brand Design at Pliant, nineteen years into a career she has never once let go linear.What comes through most in this conversation is
