Starting this season we’ll be changing the way we release content to listeners and viewers, patrons and non-patrons. On Monday, we’ll still live stream our show to the public via Facebook at 9 a.m. est (except for when we need to change it based on guest availability). Any and all fans can watch the show […]
I don’t do a ton of photojournalism in my free time, so I’m not as constantly active doing press work as I could be and, as such, don’t get press access to events that much. Every once in a while, though, I do get lucky enough to get press access to events. While attending class […]
