  • Le Beau, M
    Relevant, insightful and thought-provoking
    In my role on the leadership team of a San Diego non profit, I am always looking for podcasts that make me think how I could do my job better… and move the needle forward for my organization. I finish every one of these podcasts truly inspired and motivated! It’s clear the non-profit fundraising landscape has become more about radically connecting with our core constituencies and giving them experiential ways to expand their passion for our work. So excited to put my recent learnings into practice. Thanks, Ted!!

    Fan of Historic
    This podcast is one more example of the quality work that Historic Agency puts out on a regular basis.

    Wow. Now this is Impact storytelling.
    Ted and the Historic team understand nuanced storytelling and how great marketing can be a powerful amplifier. This outstanding podcast transcends basic podcast conversations by combining harrowing and human storytelling with first-class production to give us an experience - more than just the how to. Plug your headphones in - this is powerful elevation of story + innovation + raw human experiences at its finest. I’m a believer 🫶

    Historic in the making!
    Ted and Mark have not only designed and fostered beautiful relationships within the non-profit sector, they are legends in the space. Their approach to people and vision takes creativity to the next level. I’ve been a huge fan of their work and ability to adapt to platforms we subscribe to. Do yourself a huge favor and hear from some the best in the space and all around incredible humans!

    Worth Your Time
    I have worked with this team countless times over the years. They not only have a depth of experience but they have a vast network of relationships as well. Definitely worth the limited amount of time we all have to listen to podcasts. Looking forward to hearing more of the content they create.
  • Steve, La Jolla Ca
    Non profit and high impact
    Love the premise of this podcast and the credibility Ted and Historic Agency brings to the party. Non profits punch above their weight and are resource multipliers in the world wide marketplace of human needs. They capture our imagination and show us how to be active participants in transformational, boundary-defying creative movements. We need to hear more first person stories about the inspiring insights and field tested strategies of non profit organizations.
