Dominick Domingo Season 2025 Episode 9

In this episode we sit down with Dominick's lifelong friend, Rob Zabrecky,  a true renaissance man in the world of art and entertainment.

Now more than ever, it’s tempting to throw our hands in the air and surrender to futility in the face of global strife. Storytellers know we must renew hope daily. We are being called upon to embrace our interconnectivity, transform paradigms, and trust the ripple effect will play its part. In the words of Lion King producer Don Hahn (Episode 8), “Telling stories is one of the most important professions out there right now.” We here at Language of the Soul Podcast could not agree more.
