When it comes to a wedding guestlist people always ask if you have a big family but they never ask how podcasts you’ve done.
Thrilled to have worked with so many talented people and even more thrilled to get to call so many of them friends.

Fit as many knobs as you possibly can!
While developing Artful Escape, our 3D artist Mikey, made an oven asset. It was a nice oven - the work of a true pro. He even put the knobs on. And that’s who we are at Beethoven & Dinosaur. We put the knobs on. Mixtape is almost complete, we’re just putting the knobs on. See you in 2026.
