Hello, my name is Charlie Winston and this is my podcast called "As We Are", which is inspired by my most recent album "As I Am". It's discussions with people who interest me and inspire me. Some of those people you may know, but others you've never heard of. But that's not the point. You see, I'm simply interested in people, and I believe that everyone has an ever evolving story to be told. Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
