In this episode, we present a clip of Matt Groening, creator of The Simpsons and Futurama, speaking at the 2002 AIGA Design Conference in Washington DC. This footage has not been seen or heard publicly for over 20 years. Groening shares a story he had never told before, explains why he values design conferences, gives advice to fellow illustrators, reveals the namesake of Homer Simpson, and divulges some of the things the Fox Network censored from his shows.
