Charlotte is literally bursting with creativity, and this past weekend the BOOM Charlotte Festival put that all on display. With over 100 events and activities over three days, BOOM took over Plaza-Midwood and gave Queen City creatives exciting opportunities to meet each other, work together and share their passions with thousands of Charlotteans. And, The Biscuit Podcast was on hand to gather the sounds — if not the sights — of all the action.

Our producer extraordinaire, Andy Goh, interviews festival founder and director, Manoj Kesevan, as well as Charlotte creatives Davita Galloway, John Hairston, Jr. and Andrea Downs. That’s a lot of creative inspiration in under 15 minutes. Listen below.
