Genuinely love listening to the podcasts. I always take something from them đź«¶
I have been at a point of change in my art career and Ben’s words have been a blessing. It feels like a sympathetic chat with an artist friend. Ben’s shorter podcasting feel like he is voicing what I have been thinking about! Great, thoughtful and brave!
Love it and very helpful and insightful just not a fan of continuous background music which I find distracting. Just my personal opinion of course others may enjoy the music.
Thank you Ben for bring studios of great creatives to our headphones/speakers. So alive and relevant for practitioners, both established and new.
John Heagerty is such a great listen along with every one else
Ben’s irresistible passion for creativity is consistently inspiring. His natural, inquisitive interview style draws you deeper into flowing conversations that always leave me feeling energised and full of new ideas.
I never really found space in my routine for podcasts, but this one changed that.
