Mugs, Memories & Meaning: A Chat with Sam Mirkovich

This week on “Been Trying to Meet You,” we’re thrilled to host Sam Mirkovich, a Walla Walla-based artist and educator with a unique twist on connection. Sam spends his days crafting pottery, specifically mugs, during intimate, heart-to-heart “conversations” with friends and family. Each mug reflects the vibe of their talk and is shipped to its recipient as a lasting memento. In this episode, we get real about life’s quirky side—covering irrational fears, books we’ve totally never read, regrets, the teachers who shaped us, and foods that instantly bring us home. Sam’s vibe is inspiring, and he’s offering a limited chance for a few lucky listeners to snag a session! Just comment with the secret word to get in on this special offer. Also, we’re on the lookout for guests who are as down-to-earth and cool as Sam. Head to beentryingtosignup.com and let’s make it happen!
