The Nuño Twins
Twin Spin
Welcome to Twin Spin, the show hosted by us, the Nuño Twins. We’ve shared a birthday, a childhood, and now… a podcast. We talk about the stuff that’s hard to name but impossible to ignore: growth, identity, creativity, and change. It’s part catch-up, part soul-searching, and all about becoming who we’re meant to be. All with a twist of twin. Adrian and Andrew are filmmakers from Chicago, Illinois with more than ten years of experience in the industry. The award-winning duo have created more than three hundred videos ranging from advertisements for entrepreneurs to content for non-profits.
