Female-driven experiences, like those explored on Scrappy Broads, have developed the toolbox to solve the most fucked up problems while maintaining their candor and grace.
Scrappy Broads is an interview-format, one-hour podcast series hosted by Amy Redford, featuring a new Scrappy Broad guest per episode, - a guest intently researched and selected for both their ardent and inspiring backstory and their willingness to trust and be open. Distinctive to our show will be the environment of conversation, navigating untold stories and dialogues set in a tone of friends having cocktails. A scripted narrative helps build and construct past experiences relevant to the current conversation.
