Really happy I stumbled upon this podcast! Lots of great insight in the photography world

Daryl Roades ,

Pretty unextraordinary

Nothing that can't be found in many other podcsasts.

Go-to

What can I tell you ? Sharky has one of the best approaches to news and current affairs podcasting - he's brief, to the point, entertaining and honest. Plus my non-photographer wife says she loves his voice. Basically, this is one of my go-to podcasts and I highly recommend it.
