Bad at Sports Episode 890: Kris Graves and Have a Nice Day Press

Live from Stitch and Staple at the illustrious 21C Hotel (because, why record in a normal studio when you can do it in a fancy hotel?), we dive into the deep end with Kris Graves, photographer extraordinaire and head honcho of KGP | Monolith, along with the relentlessly kind crew from Have a Nice Day Press. We grill Kris on everything from the role of documentary photography in social justice to navigating this wild political landscape we call life, all while discussing how photo books aren't just pretty—they're political weapons (but, you know, in a good way). If you've ever wondered how to make a photo book that doesn't just sit on a shelf, but sparks a revolution, this one's for you. Kris Graves might just be the guy to show you how. And then, we meet Have a Nice Day Press, who are all about making art books with the simple goal of being, well... nice. Like, refreshingly nice. They break down why making art books is their way of spreading good vibes and making the world a slightly less terrible place. Turns out, being nice is a radical act in the art world—who knew?
