The Sherwood Ten

Welcome to The Sherwood Ten, your brief window into the minds of the most interesting people in our worlds. The show is simple: Ten Questions, Ten Minutes. Many of the questions are the same, though the guests vary widely – from movers and shakers, to entrepreneurs, entertainers, and thought leaders. What’s the best financial advice you’ve ever gotten? What are you long on? What’s a cliche that’s actually true? Give us ten minutes, and we’ll give you plenty to think about. Hosted by Jody Avirgan (538, TED, Radiotopia) and produced by Sherwood Media and Roulette Productions.
