Living in Fiction is an infotainment podcast where we look at some of the best movies, some of our favorite movies, and some ridiculous movies to see what’ve learned, what we’ve learned to avoid and what’s inspired us. My guests choose the movies, we talking about the characters and the themes, and we mention what we could learn about leadership and communication.

Home Sweet Home

I was born and raised in El Paso and Art’s podcast is like the convo with a friend back home that fills you in on what you missed since you were last there. It’s a cool bonus to know some of the guests personally hear what they’ve been up to too. Keep it going man! 🍻
