Dov Freedman's indie has produced massive biopics on Amy Winehouse, Caroline Flack, Paula Yates and doc series like Netflix's Running With The Devil and Squad Goals for BBC3. But in this frank conversation, Kimberly draws out the vulnerable side of this successful CEO and Founder - how did he navigate the precarious career of a freelancer when you're 'only as good as your last reference'? Are Jews considered an under-represented group in TV? What's running a production company really like?

Features fun stories about The Island with Bear Grylls, buying loo roll for the office and the adrenalin rush of Curious' first paid development money landing in the bank.

The Imposter Club

The Imposter Club is the podcast for anyone who’s ever felt they were winging it during their creative career (all of us?!).Host Kimberly Godbolt, a TV Director turned talent company co-founder of Talented People asks successful commissioners, producers & filmmakers to open up about their own moments of imposter syndrome, fear and failure to help us better understand and handle the ups and downs of our own creative career rollercoaster. The first season features BAFTA/Emmy/RST award winning filmmaker Olly Lambert, ex-commissioner and indie boss Fatima Salaria, and Mr Big Brother Phil Edgar-Jones OBE talking candidly about their toughest times and 'pinch me' moments. We hope you find The Imposter Club an inclusive and welcoming place to belong, as well as glean useful tips for your career in TV."I love it!
