Kurt Andersen and poet Deborah Garrison talk about art, the office, and the creative lives of bureaucrats. We’ll go to Office Depot with a sculptor who obsesses over Post-it notes and paper clips, and we’ll hear from an alt-country singer who paid her day-job dues on Wall Street. And we’ll find out what made the hit series BBC’s The Office so different from others set in the land of cubicles.
