On this weird and off-the-wall show, we talk about all kinds of topics. Anything from UFO's, to billionaires, to the creative process, we want to know about it all! Listen as we speak on, and sometimes debate, certain topics that maybe you've always wondered about as well. We are all amateurs and we are looking to expand our minds and learn as much as we can so that one day we may achieve expert status here on Amateur Hour.
