Each episode will feature honest conversations about design and decor, exploring what it means to be home. The first season will feature special guests, including:

  • Breegan Jane, Interior Designer and TV Personality
  • Cliff Fong, Interior Designer

“We launched Hunker as a place for meaningful conversations about design, decor, and the role our homes play in our lives," said Eve Epstein, Hunker's Editor-in-Chief. "With the launch of the Being Home podcast, we're able to expand this conversation to a new platform — one that fosters intimate and inspiring dialogue about the spaces and places that matter most to us. We're thrilled to welcome a roster of leading voices from the creative and entrepreneurial communities to the first season, and can't wait to see where the conversation leads."
