In Service Of
IN SERVICE OF is a weekly podcast hosted by journalist Steve Baltin and artist/writer Sage Bava. Each week they will talk with a celebrated public figure, from Jane Goodall and Shepard Fairey to PJ Harvey and Samara Joy, in a wide-ranging conversation built around giving back and finding your purpose in life. Created to give hope and inspire others to give back, IN SERVICE OF gets the biggest artists to talk about the causes that mean the most to them and how their giving back inspires their work. As Alice Cooper once told us, "Fame is the brand that allows you to do good." In Service Of shines light on how artists and change makers find a well spring of inspiration being in service of their causes.
