Between
Two Lances
An IDLance Podcast
Welcome to "Between Two Lances!" Join our Co-Head Honchos, Andrea Dottling and Dr. Parker Grant, as they chat with freelance instructional designers, friends, fellow IDLancers, and other interesting human beings about all things instructional design and freelancedom.
In each episode, we have a casual but informative discussion with our guest on a wide array of topics including starting your own business, getting your sh*t together as a freelancer, industry trends, delicious snacks, and keeping your head above water in this sometimes hectic industry. It doesn't matter if you're just starting out or you're a seasoned pro, "Between Two Lances" has something for everyone interested in the world of learning and development. Plus, we have a lot of fun. We'd say it's 70% fun and 30% educational.
