I feel like I’ve known Prescott Perez-Fox for close to 20 years, but I think it’s all been online with the exception of a lunch we had like a decade ago at a conference. Even this podcast was remote, but it felt like he was in the same room. We catch up on Prescott moving from freelancing to teaching, and the changes that can take.
We also talk about [currently on hiatus] The Busy Creator podcast he hosted, and more.

Valerie Aurilio, General Manager of Landor & Fitch, has been working on a project with a soon-to-be 250 year history – America. We discuss working with the America 250 Foundation to brand the country’s semiquin. I can only imagine what goes on in a project this large, and that’s a lot of what we talk about. A few glimpses of what we’ll all be seeing in 2026 have already been released, and it’ll be fun to see how this shows up on the back of my coins during the next few years,
Hanna Zimmermann co-hosts from Lincoln, Nebraska.

Lauren Hom visits The Reflex Blue Show (remotely, via Detroit, Michigan) to discuss how she got into lettering. This has led to murals, starting her own online classes, and working for some rather well-known brands.
We also discuss her current plans to go to culinary school in a couple of years, and making changes in your career in general.
Thanks again to soon-to-be-graduating designer Hanna Zimmermann for co-hosting from Lincoln, Nebraska. We end the show, well, we sort-of recorded an entire show after the show, with Lauren giving Hanna advice for any graduating design student.
