The Global Crowd
The Global Crowd is a video podcast where I reconnect with brilliant friends and colleagues from the globalization, localization, and content community—not to talk shop, but to talk life. We dive into stories, surprises, strange trivia, and whatever else comes up in one-take, unfiltered conversations. No sponsors, no scripts, no agenda—just a little tribute to the curious, creative, and kind people I’ve met over 25+ years in this industry. Sometimes insightful, sometimes ridiculous, always real.
