About The MOOD Podcast
The MOOD Podcast is a long-form conversation series exploring photography, creativity, identity, and the inner life of artists. Hosted by Matt Jacob, the show moves beyond technique and trends to examine why people make work, how creative voices are formed, and what it takes to sustain a meaningful artistic life.Through thoughtful, unhurried conversations with photographers, filmmakers, and creative thinkers from around the world, the podcast explores themes of process, mental health, ethics, purpose, legacy, and the tension between art and industry. Episodes are grounded, reflective, and often philosophical, offering listeners provocation of thought rather than formulaic answers to copy.The MOOD Podcast is less about instruction and more about understanding, aimed at emerging and established creatives who care not just about what they make, but why they make it. At its core, The MOOD Podcast is the art of conversation, one frame at a time.Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@the_moodpodcastInstagram: @the_moodpodcast /@mattyj_ayWebsite: https://themoodpodcast.com

Published 10 Sept 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] And then the more I researched into it, I realized that there's not a lot of information about the families of perpetrators. So there's all sorts of organizations that help you out and do sort of consultation work with you, you know, psychological consultation work with you, psychiatric help with you, with your family, therapy and stuff if you lose somebody to the act of homicide. But I couldn't find one organization in the United States that exists that does any sort of therapy or advice, consultation or anything for families of perpetrators. Well, so I started to really step back and think, well, it's not enough just to photograph detectives. […]
