Self Worst

Brad Pearson

Booking Overview

This is a conversational interview show about art, mental health, labor, capitalism, creative careers, and doubt, typically featuring working artists, writers, and mental-health professionals. Agencies could credibly pitch independent creatives, authors, therapists, and other practitioners with thoughtful perspectives on artistic work, career changes, or psychological challenges; booking difficulty is likely low because the show favors accessible professionals rather than highly prominent public figures.
