611 - MR DOODLE - Covering A £1.6 Million Mansion Entirely In Doodles, & Dealing With Psychosis

In today’s episode, we sit down with Mr Doodle - one of the most unique artists on the planet - to hear about how he’s turned the world into his very own canvas for his signature “graffiti spaghetti” and viral art projects. Sam talks us through the two year process of covering every inch of his six-bed, £1.6million home in black and white doodles, his wife’s reaction, and what it’s actually like to live inside his own potentially migraine-inducing artwork. Sam openly discusses his psychotic episode, what he experienced during his stint in a psych ward, his hallucinations involving Covid and Banksy, and whether he thinks his doodling obsession was a potential factor in his psychosis diagnosis. We also hear about fatherhood, his thoughts on AI’s role in the future of art, and the surprising link between Sam and Stevie. Stick around to the end of the episode where we ask Sam to leave his iconic mark on our studio wall! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
