Reviews
- Love this podcast!
I just learned about this pod and really enjoyed the episode with Kali Reis. Peanut butter on a spoon for the win! I appreciate learning more about how to support the MMIWG movement as a New Mexico native (and a human who cares about people). Can’t wait to listen to more episodes!

United States2 months ago - Loving it in Ireland!
I've listened to the first two episodes and I'm learning so much about Native and Indigenous communities: their history; struggles; injustices and resilience.

Ireland3 months ago - Representative and Educational
As someone very far removed from the industry this podcast has been really educational and entertaining. The host is compelling and relational and guests offer unique perspectives that I haven’t heard elsewhere. The show highlights a wonderfully diverse set of actors and their varying work. A great pick if you want to learn about Hollywood, the experiences of Indigenous actors and get some fabulous recommendations on what to watch next.

Canada3 months ago - We need this!
This is a great podcast to listen to, lighthearted and funny. Indigenous people need a podcast like this so we can hear the struggles of our people and how they broke through. The title is great too!
Apple Podcasts5Yoj1971Canada4 months ago - Easy Listening
Heartfelt, funny, positive, and easy listening. Talented humans share some of their wisdom, insights, critiques into the industry; not to mention, their own stories. I’d recommend for anyone who is looking for a “how too”, enjoys personal narrative, and listening to passionate people share what they are passionate about.
