Getting to know you, getting to know all about . . . Paul! You’ve heard us reference Paul throughout other episodes so its time we put him in the hot seat. Parlé wouldn’t be the same company without him because heck, he manages our whole production team. We learn about his childhood passion for minerals and his journey into his role.

Don’t forget to email us at [email protected] or DM us via FB or IG to ask Paul questions you would like to know about production.
