    ★ What Happens

    • I interview you about your art, passion, or project

      Usually 30 minutes to an hour. Very NPR Tiny Desk meets podcast energy. Just two people yapping about what you love.

    • I give you a creative challenge on the spot

      Take as long as you want that day. For example: if you are a musician or producer, I might ask you to make a song with a sample or make a song from scratch.

    • All of it will be filmed

      Content will be shared with you so you can share it with your audience too. We both win. Clips, photos, full interview — you get the goods.
