  • Great listen, even for Outsiders!

    As a woman in the midwest, completely unaware of how the tv/film industry works, I find this podcast a fantastic peek into an entirely different world! Highly recommend! It’s been especially fun to match voices and personalities to behind-the-scenes names that I had previously only seen scroll across the screen of opening/closing credits! Bravo IHW! Thank you!
