WINDOW CHATS with ROBYN

132 episodes - English - Latest episode: 6 months ago -

The podcast where Robyn Deverett sits by her window, and chats with very interesting people!

Why the name, “Window Chats” you ask? Well Robyn doesn't have a balcony, hence her window, and a “chat” seemed less intimidating than “interrogation” 😛⁣⁣ What can you expect? Random conversation/technical glitches/awkward silences and lot of laughs with various guests 🥰⠀
