It’s not always an easy thing to achieve because it may be hard to find common ground with others.The Echospective podcast strives to find that balance, that common ground. One of the things that binds us together is...music. We all have a favorite song. We all have a favorite band. If there’s something we could all sit down and agree on...it’s music.Join Markese and Nathan as they provide a platform for those stories to be told.
