OMG. If you are over 60 this podcast is time travel to the past. If you are younger this podcast is educational. Babek is just a great guy, thoughtful, philosophical, talented. You will smile if not laugh all the way through this podcast. It is fun educational, amusing, thought provoking. ENJOY
This program and its guests have taken my photography to an entirely new level. Every time a new episode drops I carve out the necessary time to listen and take notes. Richard asks the questions that you want answered. Can’t get enough of this program.
I couldn’t sleep well last night so I tuned into your podcast. I just didn’t listen to one, but two. Suzi & Leoni. Both had amazing adventurous stories that were truly mesmerising. Richard you really asked great questions and delivered truly great content once again. Keep up the great work 🙌
My latest comfort binge. Richard is excellent at interviewing his fascinating guests and his solo episodes are just as interesting.
i am a long time listener and have found these most informative. I am an amateur nature photographer and an admirer of your work and approach to your art. Many of these podcasts, notably, Sean Tucker’s,, have helped my insight of creativity. Loved his book also. Keep them coming and Thank you.
