Podcast name?

The only nameless podcast to have such high quality content! The running joke is great. I love the intentionality behind the interesting and varied discussion topics but these two friends also do so well with spontaneity. It’s a great sounding podcast with material of depth and also just really fun. Keep up the good work Two Friends.

Enjoyable!

Just listened to ep 4. I was enthralled hearing about both their fields of work. They both asked each other good questions, too. Also, I second Justin’s rec. I’ve been reading Le Guin myself. Thomas’s rec was completely unexpected (speaking of tone management!).

An honest breath of fresh air!

While following a creative path and choosing to chase one’s dreams is, no doubt, a brave and noble pursuit- discussing the challenges and struggles that accompany such a life has become seemingly taboo in today’s society. To hear two humble, articulate, talented men discuss matters of failure with such openness and candor is refreshing, reassuring and ultimately inspiring. I highly recommend to anyone who is working towards a higher goal, and look forward to more.
