A slightly different episode this week. As Casting Views celebrates its 200th episode - I asked Joey of the Game Club Pod to come on and maybe turn the tables on me and ask me some questions.
Turn the tables he did!
In what was a total suprise he turned the episode into a "This is your life" style conversation and reached out to a number of friends and collaborators to record messages and questions for me.
Honestly I have never been close to being speechless and as moved as i was during this episode.
THANK YOU
To Joey for being him!
To everyone who provided a message
To everyone who listens
Everyone who subscribes
Casting views will now take a brief break - but will be back with the random conversations that have seen 200 episodes already!
