Driving while sick?! is no fun. So while flu weather lays some of us all the way down this week, we present some entertainment you can listen to or watch while you’re all cozied up in the house. This week you’ll hear our very first live podcast performance with the PRX Google Podcasts creator program. In the first international cohort of the program, we participated in a 6 month podcast intensive on design thinking and all things pod related. We even mounted a live show, invited folx and fam from all over, and had a blast exhibiting all that we’d learned and developed throughout that time. It was magic. Dylan Marron was there…and 6 teams of brilliant pod producers rocked the house at WBUR’s City Space in Boston. We also went on to do that same show in Orlando Florida later that year. Aaaah, missing my people. Anyways, you can listen here, but I’ll also add the link so you can check it out on Youtube to do the car dance with us and see Dabigbaby.
