Hwat?! Weekly

Do you have a partner that works too much? Well, Joe certainly does, which is why he decided to make "Hwat?! Weekly!", a weekly recap show where Joe updates his workaholic wife, Finlay on anything interesting that happened in the past week (with a strict "no politics, no pop culture" mandate).

"Hwat?! Weekly!" Is a new show hosted by Joe Fisher (Creator of the podcast Midnight Burger) and Finlay Stevenson (co-producer of Midnight Burger and audiobook narrator and director). It's a show about trying to stay connected to the weird, joyous, and sometimes maddening things in the world, and about two very busy people trying to stay connected with each other.
