I Swear This Will Make Sense...
Hosted by Angie Lawrence, Sean Parker · EN
You know when you're at a party and you meet a stranger and have a really good conversation with them about something or other and then never see them again because they disappear into the night? Every week we try and recreate that. Two friends trying to make sense of a different topic each episode. We can't promise that we'll have a point, but we can promise a good talk. Our Instagram is @ItWillMakeSensePod and our website is www.ItWillMakeSensePod.com
