The Unprompted Podcast
Hosted by Kimani Calliste · EN
Sup. I'm Kimani Calliste and I'm an NYC-based Photographer/Filmmaker. This is a daily-ish audio journal where I record my thoughts for 15-ish minutes. Some days it'll be snarky and goofy. Some days it'll be thoughtful and introspective. But always, it'll be raw, unfiltered, and Unprompted.
