A monthly podcast in which artist @stevexoh follows a fascinating and wonky chain of thought that meanders through creativity, philosophy, psychology, nature, neurodiversity, mental health, creatures, wonder, and whatever weird project is consuming his attention at the time.

Steve originally set out to create an accessible audio version of his Substack but quickly realised he had accidentally started a podcast.

“Ruminations on the turning of the seasons, creativity and neurodiversity, all to the tune of birdsong. Lovely.” — Podcast Rex

  • Episode #16: Analogious joy, the invention of memory and the mysterious crested arse-foot bird
    Sep 4 2026

    In this episode I discover that a bird I see regularly is actually a very weird creature, make my head explode by going down a rabbit hole asking myself what memory actually is, and come up with a stupid idea to offer analogue versions of all of this.

  • Episode #15: Digital marginalia, the paradoxical grief of completion and becoming Connie Cyclonic
    Aug 7 2026

    In this episode I try to find ways of bringing the art of marginalia to a podcast, realise I may be somewhat addicted to the psychological tension created by an incomplete project and reflect on a profound experience that began with the discovery that a water bottle would fit on my head.
