In this valuable ep, you're going to hear how being an outsider can spur you on to amazing things. How naivety and drive outweighs perfection. How true, fleixible working can transform a business. And what an inspiring human Jason Mitchell is!

Jason was just 29 when he set up the super successful The Connected Set thanks to his outsider-like thinking. And in this conversation with Kimberly he reveals how he has gone from 'wild card' to wildly happy running his production company. Not producing cookie cutter content :-)

Dov Freedman's indie has produced massive biopics on Amy Winehouse, Caroline Flack, Paula Yates and doc series like Netflix's Running With The Devil and Squad Goals for BBC3. But in this frank conversation, Kimberly draws out the vulnerable side of this successful CEO and Founder - how did he navigate the precarious career of a freelancer when you're 'only as good as your last reference'? Are Jews considered an under-represented group in TV? What's running a production company really like?

Features fun stories about The Island with Bear Grylls, buying loo roll for the office and the adrenalin rush of Curious' first paid development money landing in the bank.

An absolutely gorgeous episode featuring the breath of fresh air that is Editor Yasmine Almosawi.

Jenny Popplewell is a huge name in documentary, but in this incredibly humble and revealing conversation, she tells Kimberly of her fight to be taken seriously as a director and how she's only just believing of her own success. This is a strong contender for most-whiplash-inducing episode of noddingly relatable content for Producers and Directors - or anyone wanting their career to move on and feels they are not being heard. Jenny has such important anecdotes and valuable advice, we are very grateful for her wise words.

What a kickstart to this new season! The formidable Dorothy Byrne, ex Editor-at-Large and Head of News & Current Affairs at Channel 4 grabs imposter syndrome by the horns and tells it where to go. We cover everything from the serious accident that adversely affected her career, asking for what you deserve, menopause, mentors and all things in between.

Dorothy is now President of Murray Edwards College at Cambridge, who are incredibly lucky to have her in our opinion :-)

You know those 'making of's on TV we all love so much? Well, adjust your expectations as this is hardly a behind the scenes of 'Blue Planet' ;-) but... Ever wondered how we landed on The Imposter Club as an idea, why we made this podcast in the first place, or who Kimberly’s dream guest would be? You can find out as well as hear some personal take outs from each guest’s story in this bonus, behind the mic conversation between Kimberly and her partner in crime - talent guru and podcast Exec Rosie Turner. You'll discover that some of the episode themes have hit home for very personal reasons, and there are a few laughs along the way too. Mouse or snake phobia, anyone?!

And that's a wrap for series 1! See you after a short break - but not before you've completed this list of easy peasy 2 minute things OK? Thanking you kindly...
