Podcast #4: Dorothy Parker

Our fourth and (so far) frothiest and festivest podcast, produced and presented by Susan Stone.

This time it’s your beloved co-host Florian Duijsens revealing some lesser-known sides to the late, great Dorothy Parker. Plus the rest of the gang getting fizzy on a popular Berlin beverage.

Also available on Soundcloud, Apple Podcasts, RadioPublic, and soon to come from other podcast purveyors.
