Bite-Sized Insights

I've only listened to a few podcasts so far but I'm enjoying Omar's bite-sized podcasts on a variety of arts and entertainment themes. I first discovered Omar and ARC when he was a guest on The George & Tony Entertainment Show (also part of the RELM network) and I've started listening my way through the full panoply of podcasts! The show is thoughtful (which is a word that I've noticed comes up in most of ARC's reviews), interesting, intelligent and very well-pronounced!!

Great show!

I am late to the party, but I am enjoying catching up. This is a great podcast to have in your rotation for a quick and insighful hit of movies, TV, pop cuture....etc commentary.

We missed you! ,
