This is a podcast about celebrating and exploring process. In the discovery through conversations from various small-city artists, we conclude that perhaps purpose and fulfillment is not found in performance or product, but rather, in rehearsal.

Praneet Akilla - You Don't Have to Suffer for Your Art
We are back! And to kick off from our hiatus we have, actor, Praneet Akilla, most known for his role as Gil Bobbsey on the CW’s “Nancy Drew” and Netflix’s “October Faction”. He dives into his journey as an Indian immigrant implant, what it was like assimilating into Canadian culture and finding his way into acting. Listen in as he drops gems on not suffering for art and why it is important to tell stories where trauma is not the identifier of the marginalized but rather celebrating the love, humour and simple joys of those groups.
