What is the Epic Podcast?
First we were musicians. Then we were friends. Then we started a band. Then we graduated college. Then we were roommates. Then we were photographers. Now, we’re podcasters.
The Epic Podcast is a photography and technology podcast, hosted by Sam Hurd and Nathan Mitchell, full-time wedding photographers. The show focuses on wedding photography, the photography industry as a whole, camera gear, and stories from actual photoshoots. Although sometimes we just talk about The Matrix for a whole show. It’s a freeform format, with episodes lasting about an hour.
