I'm diggin' it

I've been a previous fan of Brian Patacca's -- I find his content useful and unique. But what I really like, honestly, is his heart. He really seems to love helping actors and creatives and to want to provide as much value as possible, and I really appreciate it. I'm loving this new podcast. I enjoy the loose, off the cuff vibe. I started with the DaJuan Johnson episode, which is great. Looking forward to gleaning lots of useful nuggets!
