From our cheerleaders
I didn’t know what to expect but I was engaged and genuinely interested in the content.
It definitely gave me something to think about and provided me a unique perspective into the arts, a space I’m not very familiar with.
Perry C, Business Owner
Ted and Camilla have an engaging chemistry! I found it very interesting and listenable. Can't wait to hear more from an artist perspective. Will definitely be a repeat listener!
Allen F, Creative Director
It gave me a different perspective on various things, which helps me process my feelings in sports. The discussions Camilla and Ted have are very interesting and different from what we talk about with the team.
