Interesting people sharing cool things they love...

Five Things invites some of today’s most talented and successful producers, artists, writers and thinkers to share five things – audio, visuals, books, objects or something else entirely – that have shaped their creative practice over time. Or that inform how they approach their work now. Or, simply enough, that they dig, and want to share with you.

Five Things is an ongoing series at the Podcast Garage hosted by Radiotopia's Julie Shapiro. We're joined this month by the one-and-only Jenna Weiss-Berman.

Tickets are $10 and on sale below. We will have wine, refreshments, and Jenna's favorite snacks on hand. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and we'll kick things off at 7:00 p.m.
