It takes a certain kind of compatibility to be creative collaborators and for those who are life partners as well—like hosts and COOL HUNTING founders Josh and Evan—even more nuanced. That’s one of the reasons they were especially excited to visit artists Nick Cave and Bob Faust in their Chicago studio and home to dig into their respective creative process and the Venn diagram of their community activism, personal and joint work, and their private lives. In this episode you'll hear how upcycled knitwear brought Nick and Bob together, how they support each other’s work, fostering community, developing projects that create an impact and toward the end, a fashion vision we all want to see manifest!
