Cold Pod

Josh McIntyre, Nick Marian

Booking Overview

An informal interview-led pop-culture show focused on music, art, Toronto life, and adjacent creative scenes, with recurring external conversations featuring musicians, songwriters, and other artistically active guests. Agencies could credibly pitch emerging recording artists, performers, producers, visual artists, and creative-community founders with a current project and a distinctive personal story; booking difficulty is low because recent guests are accessible independent creatives rather than highly prominent public figures.
