The Quickie Podcast is a really fun listen. Dave is very laid-back and funny. The questions he has for his guests are very unique, as well as the conversations. There's really nothing typical about it which is refreshing.
Brilliant podcast that gives an insight into how other designers work and the battles they have faced on their way to the top! Very informative and Dave gets straight to the point when asking questions. It’s nice to know the problems up and coming designers my face in the future, and not to stop when things get hard but keep working. Hard works pays off! Great job Dave :)

Found it on Spotify and now listening via Apple Podcast. Love the episodes, fun to listen and really learning something from the big ones. Also THE attention to ‘smaller businesses or less famous designers’. It is so awesome to hear from all of them! Very inspirational. Dave, very awesome host!
I really enjoy the quickie! Dave is a very cool host, the subjects he brings on are very interesting and also inspiring.
I like that the guests tell their experiences in the good and also the bad side, the reality of being a designer!
It’s like listening to friends talking 👏🏻😃
Thank you for having him for interview. I worked for him as a free lance painter. I would like to say thank you to Trench for helping me build a big portfolio. I would love to come back to work with them again. It was one of the best times of my life great interview Trench. Pat Marinaro
