Rad Chat with Brandilynn

Welcome to Rad Chat! I’m your host, Brandilynn and I love talking and learning about people! This podcast is about getting together with all different kinds of people & sharing stories about how they started in their careers, growing up experiences, interests, hobbies, and overall life experiences! I believe getting together with people and sharing stories about themselves helps inspire others in learning about different people and different things we might not know about. Also, it’s just a fun time getting to talk to people and sharing in human connections!
