Dream Chasers and Eccentrics
Dreams can't be caught unless they are chased, and eccentricity is but a symptom of brilliance. I interview extraordinary people who forge their own path, make their own rules, and live outside the norms of society. Together, we can learn from each other.

That is what Dream Chasers and Eccentrics is all about!
