Welcome to A76. We kick off our season of change, chatting with Paul Grachan. Paul is a long time friend, designer, creative spark, and driver of change. When I thought about who I wanted to chat with for this first episode I only had one person in mind. You might have heard his story of the dollar bill with his wife’s name on it on This American Life and if you know him, it’s so Paul. He’s one of the most creative people I’ve ever worked with but he’s also smartly grounded in the realities of people, their behaviors, and quirks. One note, we had challenges with audio. It gets better half way through. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Paul.
