Found it on Spotify and now listening via Apple Podcast. Love the episodes, fun to listen and really learning something from the big ones. Also THE attention to ‘smaller businesses or less famous designers’. It is so awesome to hear from all of them! Very inspirational. Dave, very awesome host!

I really enjoy the quickie! Dave is a very cool host, the subjects he brings on are very interesting and also inspiring. I like that the guests tell their experiences in the good and also the bad side, the reality of being a designer! It’s like listening to friends talking 👏🏻😃

Dave is the best podcast host I’ve had the pleasure of speaking with - he’s witty, energetic, and asks questions that dig deep and create great conversation. He manages to pack a lot into a short episode so it’s truly worth every minute of your time. Cannot recommend it enough!

Its a great...Read full review »

I’ve listen to just two eps and already I’m hooked. The quick interview process lends itself to much more in-depth answers than most design podcasts. Other design podcasts focus more on the host and not the guest.
