Ep. 35: The Lazy Person's Kickstarter Clip Show

I won't be able to put together and record my regular 7-minute podcast this week, so instead I'm giving you a 77-minute podcast -- it's 3 separate interviews, full-length and uncut (down to the intros and outros), conducted in the past couple weeks or so with 3 kindie Kickstarter creators whose projects are drawing near an end. So enjoy these discussions with Laura Doherty, Ann Torralba (Little Miss Ann), and Laurie Berkner. Back next week!
