I had a nice time sitting across the booth from Detroit's Finest Radio Personality and Journalist! I really enjoyed putting the headphones on and waiting for my cue to be grilled and skilled by the man himself. His questions were great, and he expressed that WORKROOM is a unique concept that really captured his interest in learning more about. Before I type too much more, just take a listen as I, the Creative Director of WORKROOM talks the talk with Craig!
