Find Your Riff via a Whole Lotta Raff
This episode pays homage to a bunch of musical riffs that you may or may not pick up on, but even if you don’t, it won’t matter. Because it's not really about riffs. It's about what I'm calling the "riff raff" of you. The riff being the memorable thing about you, and the raff being all the stuff you try to find your riff. It might seem frivolous, but it's all important to your art. It's a conceptual piece - enjoy!
