The Offcuts Drawer

Best Arts & Culture Podcast honoree, Webby Awards 2021.

Welcome to The Offcuts Drawer, the podcast where successful writers dig out bits of their unpublished work, actors perform them and the writer explains what the hell they were thinking. Presented by Laura Shavin.

Best podcast I’ve ever done. What makes it is the serious attention to execution: each piece is brought to life by a top team of acting talent. I started by listening to my own. I’ve gone on to listen to a bunch of others. They’re all top class.

The most fun podcast I’ve ever done

This is really, really inspiring. It’s really powerful… they’re like fragments of the writers’ souls… and it can be very funny depending on who’s on and what they’re talking about.
