SHIPWRECKED #12: Goku & Maria - Our First Couple Interview

Collection

We Do A Little

Description

In this week’s episode, we did a little something different, again. We brought on our first ever couple, Goku and Maria. Goku is a badass artist and collector who has been a champion of the Solana art space since its inception. He is currently the marketing and community lead at Exchange Art. Maria Sutherland is an incredible producer, known for planning some of the best executed events in the space such as NFT Now’s Gateway in Miami and Korea.We dive deep into all things long-term relationships, how Goku and Maria met, their first big breaks in the crypto space, and so much more. Season Four is officially powered by Arbitrum and our content will be redistributed across Rug Radio and Decrypt’s platforms. Andy and I have been massive fans of Arbitrum since they launched, and both of us invested in Offchain Labs Series B back in 2021. This is a full circle moment for us and we couldn’t be happier to partner with Arbitrum for this season.
