“I do not listen to podcasts, but I listen to this one, and it's fantastic. I discovered it through a friend who was on the show and had posted the link on her social media, and I thought I'd give it a shot. I quickly binged through the entire list of episodes and now eagerly check my phone on a weekly basis to see if a new episode has come out yet. I have since made my colleagues listen to the show as well, because I think it's that valuable and provides a great framework for discussing creative projects as well as navigating the business.

I tried to start a "directors group" like a writers group once, and it failed ultimately because I couldn't get enough directors interested in doing it. So this podcast fills a pretty specific need I had as a creative. It gives me a chance to engage with other directors about the craft, even if the conversation is a one-sided podcast.”Read full review »
