Fascinating story but can’t follow due to the repetitive ads.
Is this about models or adverts, unlistenable
This podcast enthralled me from the very beginning. The stories were insane and it was really cool to get an inside look into the modeling world at the time of its peak. I remember growing up in the 80s and 90s when every girl wanted to be an actress or a model. This was a wild ride and definitely worth listening to.
Listened to all the episodes and couldn’t stop! Paul’s story is really intriguing and it gives you a real glimpse into the modeling industry. Highly recommend!
Vanessa is a great podcaster and this is another great story
