Retrospect
A podcast where three guys from different walks of life come together and talk about their experiences from each generations perspective. In each episode we will pose a question at the top and discuss from there. It will mostly be lighthearted, but we won't be afraid to talk about some heavier subjects too. Either way, relax, grab yourself something to drink, and enjoy!
