Drews Podcast is an interview-style podcast where I host 10-20-minute one-on-one conversations with St. Andrew's College students to learn more about their backgrounds and experiences at Drews so far. The second half of the podcast features rapid-fire questions which stay the same across each episode.
Almost 400 students call St. Andrew's College home. Each member of the community has unique and interesting experiences to share. Whether you're applying to University, curious about life at the colleges, or just looking to pass time, come have a listen!
