  • Best Theatre Podcast?

    I love this podcast. I love it’s informality and kits rigour. I’ve worked in theatre for a quarter of a century and yet I learn something every time I give James and Bruno a listen.

  • Perfectly informal and educational

    This is my go to Podcast when in the car on long journeys, James and Bruno lay the podcast out perfectly with none of the fillers often used to pad podcasts out. Their informal structure feels like you’re sat with them in the pub just discussing what the other person does for work. more
