Hey everyone, welcome to Vancouver Radio, celebrating eight years of being a podcaster with eight lessons of what I've learned myself, because doing this podcast has been a journey of interviewed great people we've had amazing discussions between myself and Anna my old co-host myself and Rachel

my middle co-host, myself and Rachel, my middle co-host and then Tom, who's my current
