On Topic, Off Script Season 2 recap
As we start this year, I’m looking back on the second season of my podcast -- On Topic, Off Script -- and looking ahead to a 2026 full of new, meaningful conversations.
Throughout the first two seasons of this show, it's been such a privilege to speak with artists and advocates, newsmakers and innovators about their inspirations, the lessons they’ve learned along the way, and what they hope all of you can take away from their stories.
If you're looking for a new podcast listen to kick off the year, check out the full first two seasons on Apple, Spotify, and everywhere you get your podcasts (check out the link below!). Stay tuned in the coming months for news on Season 3. Let's continue the conversation as we stay on topic, but… go a little off script. — B
