Love the range of interviewees and the whole format
I’m a fan of Disegno and from the first episode of The Crit it is clear it will be a great addition to podcasting. As a graduate student in art school now I appreciate the gesture!
Loved this - interesting yet informative digest of all things design.
Keep it up guys!
