Nate and Benjamin discuss what they have been eating, the art they have been seeing and all the week's hot art gossip. 
They are then graced with the presence of writer, researcher, (real) podcaster and Gladstone Galleries Director Alissa Bennett to discuss how she got to the top of the front desk heap (while making friends and influencing people along the way). We learn Straight Up about her humble luxury retail beginnings before she gives tips and tricks on how the youth of today can master the front desk game. Then we go behind the scenes to hear about her legendary instagram account @regret_counter_ and how her in-depth research into celebrity fandom led to her newest instagram sensation @westwood_village_mortuary which tracks a totally different type of auction from what we usually cover. 
NO BULLSHIT: Alissa is one of the most accomplished, smart and funny people in the artworld you will NOT want to miss this episode.
