What's up, everybody? Welcome to the Cat and Cloud podcast. This week, we sit down with Stephen Monty,

0:05.9

owner of ArtPresso design. You might know ArtPresso as the producer of that Barista Basic line of

0:13.6

tools from LaMar Zocco. And that's how I knew them, too, until I met Stephen and talking with Stephen and discovering

0:23.3

his motivation, inspiration, history, and how someone who could feasibly work in design

0:33.3

anywhere, like anywhere, and has worked for some crazy, incredible huge companies,
