Annie and Nick reunite to talk about Annie’s new company/vanity project, Kraum. Reporting in live from launch day, Nick grills Annie on how Kraum came to be. Also discussed: Nick’s clandestine project, famous people. This episode is brought to you by Kraum, Inc. Shop the Micro Brush Collection only at kraum.co. Also, it’s me, Annie. I touch on this in the episode, but I want to say it here, too: thank you all for every little bit of support and encouragement on Kraum. Even as small as liking something I post, or thinking a happy thought. I have been very touched and it’s been so energizing, probably more helpful than you even realize. That’s all for now! Send me any questions on Kraum, I love talking about it. -Annie This is a public episode.
