Episode 24 Zach Mory Interview: Making Ridiculous Dreams Come True - a podcast by ART GAB

 In this episode we take a road trip to Illinois and visit artist Zach Mory, whose drawings connect comic book aesthetics to the history of midwestern magical realism and contemporary politics. We talk about his role as an artist working today, as well as, power necks.
