Yup that’s a funny/odd title but fitting for one of the most delightful podcasts around. It’s three friends who are all illustrators having a chat and telling stories spanning from college to their professional careers. They go off on wild tangents and tell the most colorful stories. You feel as...Read full review »

I really enjoy the content of this podcast but wish they would invest in proper mics cos the sound quality makes it sound a bit grim and amateur

I’m a very fussy listener ! As I work in my little studio there are certain sounds from my bluetooth speaker that can help or hinder the often quite thoughtful process. Music can be a peaceful companion for painting and songs with a beat can really help me speed up or concentrate, but DJs on...Read full review »
