I had the pleasure of talking with @hankgreen.bsky.social about how he manages an impossibly full creative life — from YouTube and Crash Course to books, businesses, and Good.Store — using simple tools, structured weeks, selective meetings, and endless ideas.

Aaaand that’s a wrap on Relay for St. Jude 2025. Thank you. 🧡

It’s your last chance to donate to my St Jude fundraiser, as it closes tomorrow afternoon!

Support both my research and St Jude’s goal of giving kids more tomorrows at the same time! klmatthews.com/stjude

I’ve added Pro and Pro Max rewards to my campaign at $0.50 and $1 per hour so if you want to show your appreciation for the quiz or the other work I do in the community why not donate at klmatthews.com/stjude

Now we’ve all recovered(?) from @relay.fm's Podcastathon for St Jude, I can announce that I spent *73 hours* researching the co-founders quiz! That time also includes work on my historian spreadsheets, and of course, my time checking the scoring/moderating during the Podcastathon itself.

Going live again, streaming Mass Effect 3 for the kids!

Come hang out, and donate to a great cause. We’ll be joined by the wonderful @jamesthomson.bsky.social and @kathycampbell.com (and *baby Charlie!*) as guests during this stream!

Just a little bit 😅 if it helps the 15 Pro Max is about the same height as the 16 Plus, and the width is about halfway between the 17 Pro Max and the Air

I do these sketches every year to help people visualise the new phones.

If you have ever found them useful, I’d appreciate it if you donated a percentage of the money you might spend on a new phone to St Jude. Let’s help cure childhood cancer together!

A comparison of the physical sizes of the phones Apple has made since the iPhone 5 through to the present day. The smallest was the 5, 5S & original SE; with the 16 & 17 Pro Max as the largest. The new Air is significantly thinner than any of the other models.

The sketch above only has the models available on Apple’s website. Here’s the version with as many models as possible for you completionists:

A comparison of the physical sizes of the phones Apple currently sells. The 16 and 16e are the smallest, with the 17 and 17 Pro just taller. The new Air is slightly wider than the 16/16e, and taller again than the 17/17/Pro. Bigger still is the 16 Plus, with the 17 Pro Max slightly taller again and the largest model. The Air is significantly thinner than any of the other models.

I’d appreciate any donations to my campaign, no matter how small, if you’ve enjoyed my research, art, or other work over the years. Let’s help cure childhood cancer together!

It’s September and I am again raising money for St Jude Children’s Research Hospital with my friends at @relay.fm!

Yet again, I’m writing a quiz for the 12 hour Podcastathon on 19th September, and i’ve been slightly busy with research, so this post is later than I’d planned…

A drawing of Nico Hülkenberg celebrating his podium, just after getting out of the car, helmet still on, arm in the air.

I had to draw something to celebrate my fav driver Hülkenberg’s first #F1 podium. It’s been such a long time coming - not many people win Le Mans first - but I’m so, so proud of him. Congrats Nico!

A digital drawing that reads "Happy 600 Episodes!" in hand written text. The 600 is larger than the rest, and the 0s are drawn as cakes with candles. One has the Clockwise artwork and colours, the other the Clockwise Unwound artwork and colours.

Happy 600 episodes, Clockwise! (you can decide which of the cakes is gluten-free and which is for Dan 😉) I challenged myself to draw this during the livestream and I’m really happy with how it turned out!

A digital drawing of a mini stay-puft marshmallow man from the recent Ghostbusters films. It's the first little guy we see in the supermarket, and he has a big smile.

I watched both Ghostbusters: Afterlife & Frozen Empire this weekend, and I just had to draw one of the little marshmallow guys. They’re so cute!

A graphite drawing of the National Transgender Memorial: A tree trunk carved into the shape of butterflies.

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance.
The National Transgender Memorial used to stand in Sackville Gardens in Manchester, and visiting was always an emotional experience for me. I drew it back in 2021.

A digital outline sketch of a dachshund in blue.

I try to start new accounts with some of my art, so here's a dachshund I drew at my friend's request last month 🐶

First thought about Bluesky: why can't I be rhl__ like everywhere else?? 🙁
