Welcome to We’re Gonna Make It, a podcast about art, artists, and the fierce creative rivalry between a newly engaged couple. In our inaugural episode, we try to simplify all the artistic monuments of the world into two simple categories: things you can look at, and things you can hear.
While we may have failed in our gross attempts at categorization, we did get a few interesting conversations out of it.
Jennifer Cook is a visual artist and designer from Victoria, BC. She works at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria and keeps a sporadically updated selection of her work at yourstrulydesign.wordpress.com
Colin Liseth is better known as OLAV. A DJ and electronic music producer, OLAV can also be seen in Victoria on a monthly basis playing at Lucky Bar. His music can also be found online at olav.bandcamp.com
One of the reasons we pulled a designer and a musician onto our first episode was to have them do our dirty work for us. We needed a logo and a theme song to accompany this show, so Jenn and Colin each competed against the hosts for the honour of having their work represent We’re Gonna’ Make It.
The contestant pieces are all below after the break, but to find out which ones won the contest, you’re just going to have to listen to the show!
...or look at the top of the website.

For our second episode, we promptly defy expectation and jump this audio-train right off its tracks. With which medium should we best be studying independent art? Would that be painting? Music? Film? Nope. We chose cooking.
Our two guests today are both culinary artists within the Okanagan Valley: one is a student, the other a self-taught master. Together, they make a sort of socially awkward but thoroughly amusing episode.
Liam McNulty is the head chef at Nk’Mip Cellars in Osoyoos, BC, providing amazing patio meals during the summer months. He has worked at several other winery restaurants, and such venues as BiBO in Nelson before settling in the desert.
Colton Vieau is a culinary student in Kelowna, BC by day, working at Earls by night. He’s like, 18.
One of the great advantages to having these supremely talented foodsmiths on our show was that they were able to advise us in our first great cookoff. With the guests serving as coaches, Moss and Taylor engaged in a ferocious test of creativity and skill.
Mistakes were made, wine was drunk, expired cheese was purchased, inappropriate flours were substituted for their superior counterparts, and in the end our gladiators presented their meals for the scrutiny of the professionals.
Both dishes are shown below, but to find out what’s in them and who won in the end, you’ll have to listen to the show!
