For our fifth episode we decided to take a look back at the conversations we’ve had so far and reflect on what we have taken away from listening to the ideas our different guests have presented to us. East of Moon founder Arnar Sigurðsson joins Josie Anne in the studio to discuss the moments and concepts that each episode has raised.
