16th Transmission: The DrifterShoots Story (@driftershoots)

Welcome to the 16th Transmission of the ALLSHIPS podcast. I’m your host Dave Krugman, and today, we have a special story for you after a long hiatus, recorded just after NYC NFT. We’re back with the DrifterShoots [https://www.instagram.com/driftershoots] story, a history of this meteoric rise of an astounding force in the Web3 community. Isaac Wright, more widely known as Driftershoots, was kind enough to come over and share his origins with me and the winding and tumultuous road that has led him to even higher heights than the buildings he climbs. Drift is a true artist, with his art in the right place, and I’m so grateful to be able to have this conversation to share with you. As a note, this conversation took place later in 2021, so anything that has happened since will not be addressed.

13th Transmission: think_flexible (@think_flexible)

Welcome to the 13th Transmission of the ALLSHIPS podcast. I’m your host Dave Krugman, and today, we have a fun experiment for you- a podcast recorded live on Twitter spaces. In this episode, we talk to think_flexible [https://twitter.com/think_flexible], an NFT collector and DeFi enthusiast who is making major waves in the cryptoart space. To me, this was a fascinating perspective to hear- often we hear the artists perspective, it was so valuable to hear some thoughts from someone who was early to NFTs and is driving this space forward. We start with a circuitous conversation and end with a crowdsourced Q and A. Let’s dive in.

12th Transmission: Nathan Beer (@beercandid)

Welcome to the 12th Transmission of the ALLSHIPS podcast. I’m your host Dave Krugman, and today, I’m speaking to a new friend of mine -- Nathan Beer. Nathan is the Head of Content at SuperRare, and works hard to contextualize the NFT movement through his incredible storytelling abilities -- getting perspectives from the artists blazing the trail and the wider community making this exciting new world possible. We connected over Twitter a while back, and last week we were lucky enough to meet in Paris at EthCC. We really hit it off, as you can tell from this hour long chat, where we dig into so many different idea and concepts, including NFTs and photography, collecting and our environment of evolution, how the most interesting things happen at the fringes of culture, and so much more.
