This has been one of the best and most helpful podcast series for actors I’ve listened to so far. Both Emily and Ollie have a lot of interesting view points to share with listeners with regards to the industry and it’s also heartwarming to see how open they are about their own experiences. I really appreciate that in a podcast and I will avidly he tuning in each week to hear more from them!

Apparently some actors these days cannot even come up with their own material. How does this podcast differ to “The 98%” ... which you have directly quoted many times - in future please come up with your own material :)

Brilliant at best

Such a good actors podcast. Honest and REAL it cuts the ego crap and tells it as it is....pencils and all. The ep on mental health was so brave and so very important. Essential podcast for the actor out of work...or not!
