Something Rather Than Nothing

I like Kens way of thinking and coming up with interesting ways to interview and story tell with all different kinds of people. When he interviews his guests, he finds ways to bring out information you wouldn’t expect and demonstrate who these artists really are. Cool guy, cool show! Check it out!

Ken hosts the show with wit, humor, and kindness. He is clearly so passionate about the arts, his guests, and the community he builds with listeners and contributors alike. He is well spoken, engaging, and brings a variety of voices to the forefront. He asks insightful questions, and leads with curiosity. This is by far one of my favorite shows, and really is a must listen if you like art, conversation, and/or really cool people.

…by creative host, Ken Volante. SRTN dives deep with each conversation- K.V. brings thought-provoking questions to a variety of creators and thinkers from all over the planet, and in turn allows for both a safe space and a platform by which guests can follow the path they choose for the episode to take. SRTN clearly has a plethora of interests and curiosities which lead to a delicious variety of voices being heard—- from poets to burlesque dancers, painters to metal bands, opera singers to bodywork healers, and everything in between. Specifically remarkable is the show’s conspicuous support of Indigenous artists and thinkers, as well as their continued acknowledgement of and action toward justice for Native American peoples.

Ken does such a great job with thoughtful questions and follow up conversation. He curates his guests to have a nice variety of creatives who practice different disciplines and come at them from different angles. This is a thoughtful, informative, entertaining podcast!
