I love talking to Ashe! She's funny, smart, irreverent, and most of all, down to earth. I've been lucky enough to speak with her twice in the last 12 months and both conversations were so great, I decided to post a mega episode featuring both of them. The Beach Boys, One Up Ashe, rescue dogs, Billie Eilish,  and my pitch to manage her are just some of the MANY things we discussed.
