With the Oscars coming up quickly, we spoke with the woman behind the design landscape for Sinners: Hannah Beachler. She’s been director Ryan Coogler’s go-to production designer for several films, including Fruitvale Station, Creed, two Black Panther movies, and now Sinners, which smashed the record for most Academy Award nominations. Beachler sat down for a long, ranging interview full of Sinners lore and what challenge she wants to take on next. But first, we hit the news: Crotchgate, everything else in Olympics design, Jony Ive’s Ferrari, the enshittification of ChatGPT, and the trial of Meta and Google’s allegedly addictive design. We’ll close with a new segment: Fix Your Shit. This episode’s target: Microsoft Teams.
