For 22 episodes I sat in this room by myself.

Not this one.

Minh Tran worked at my bench. Then he didn't. Episode 13 was about what that felt like from my side, and I never used his name.

I'm using it now.

There was no falling out. No betrayal. Nobody to blame. That did not make the bench feel any less empty.

He was at his own bench at 11 at night with headphones on and cases due in the morning, listening to me describe a week he'd already lived. We finally sat down and talked about all of it.

There's one thing we don't agree on. We left it that way.

THE EMPTY BENCH drops Wednesday 8.26. Wherever you get your podcasts.

Some of this conversation isn't on the recording. It's saved for Portland, September 11 and 12, when Minh and I are on stage together at the Pacific Northwest Lab Conference. You'll know which parts when you hear us skip them.

The band is getting back together.

No sponsor. No masterclass. No weekend fix.

Protect your margins. Protect your meaning.

I got tired of everything I know being so fragile that it could stand up and leave with one person.

That's the fear underneath Episode 21.

For twenty episodes I told you judgment can't be downloaded. Then I spent a year quietly trying to download mine, and I found out which parts came and which parts wouldn't.

No product. Nothing for sale. Just the truth about what I've been building in the dark, and why it scared me.

Dropping Monday. Sound on.

Protect your margins. Protect your meaning.
