The Spark: David Airey on Hot Takes, Bad Habits, and Big Life Questions

In this Spark episode, things get a bit looser and a bit more revealing. Katy puts David Airey on the spot with a mix of quick-fire questions, unexpected tangents, and the kind of prompts that lead to surprisingly honest answers.

They get into David's most controversial creative opinion, why he's wary of social media and the way it shapes design, and the one thing he'd quietly challenge about how we're all told to build a creative career. There's also a brilliant moment on discipline versus passion that flips the usual advice on its head.

Along the way, there are stories from early career missteps, thoughts on saying yes to everything, and a few nostalgic detours that remind you how different things used to be. It's lighter in tone, but still full of insight. And then it lands on something bigger. What you'd wish you'd done more of. What actually matters. The kind of question that lingers long after the episode ends.

A relaxed, honest, and quietly thought-provoking finish to the conversation.
