Description

Hi, I'm Taku Mbudzi and I love to tell stories — give me a pen, a microphone or a camera and I’ll have something to share. Two Words with Taku is a podcast and pit stop for writers and storytellers — a place for rest, encouragement, inspiration and fuel before you head back out to the work of writing. ____ Podcast produced and recorded on the traditional country of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation, Australia.
