Rowan
Nopes and Opes
Two friends, one from Gen Z and one a Gen X’er, want to take a chance to put something positive into the world. “Nopes & Opes” is a recorded effort of conversations between two friends; conversations that hopefully benefit both Rowan and Hylan but also anyone who might listen. This podcast came about because Hylan published a short book in 2014 and gave Rowan a copy. Once Rowan read it he knew he wanted to do something with Hylan. https://www.youtube.com/@NopesandOpesNopeOpePod@gmail.comhttps://nopesandopes.myshopify.com/https://hylanrm.wordpress.com/
