542: Lindsey and Donte from The Mud Peddlers

Lindsey M. Dillon and Donte of Earth Nation join me this week to talk about fan culture, selling ceramics at pop culture conventions, and their podcast The Mud Peddlers. We also talk about Donte’s experience teaching ceramics through his YouTube channel. This episode is part of a duo, so I want to thank Lindsey and Donte for having me on their show recently. Check out episode 108 of The Mud Peddlers podcast where we talk about the founding of the Brickyard Network and my ever winding career path in ceramics.

I’ll be teaching two workshops this summer on ceramic surface design. The first will be at UNR Lake Tahoe June 16th-20th. I’ll also be at Snow Farm in Williamsburg, MA August 14 - 17, 2025. If you are interested in building layers through mark making and pattern, join me on either coast for a week full of experimentation and community. To register visit UNR.edu or www.snowfarm.org.
