“Si quieres reirte como un idiota en el metro (cosa que siempre me pasa), tienes que escuchar este podcast. Hablan de temas importantes como creatividad, la filosofía detras de la fotografía, los grandes fotografos y muy poco de los equipos, cosa que hace a este podcast unico. Los dos host Bill...”Read full review »

“There's so much potential here but ultimately this comes down to hours of Jeffrey (who hardly makes pictures) complaining about lack of direction in his career and never really doing anything about it, and Bill (an editiorial/commercial photographer) getting over his head and making ill-informed...”Read full review »

“About 18 months ago I decided to start listening to some Photography Podcasts, I downloaded a bunch of them & also downloaded some back issues to give me plenty to listen to, this was one of the podcasts I downloaded/subscribed to.
First things first, this is not a Photography Podcast!! Yes I...”Read full review »

“This show is entertaining and very humorous. Bill and Jeffery are perfect for this type of podcast. Even if you aren’t into photography they are entertaining. I respect their photography as well as their psychiatric evaluation of each other’s lives and dreams. Keep up the great work guy’s 5 stars!”

“I heard about OTP years ago while listening to, believe it or not, The Gilmore Guys. At the time I was told that this podcast was in principle about photography but in the end could be about anything. That is, I now know, very much the case in the best possible way. Im fascinated by photography...”Read full review »

“I've listened to a few of these podcasts and have concluded that Saddoris may be about the whiniest adult male in the U.S. Current episodes seem to be more about the podcasters' personal (non-photo) lives than anything on topic.
