In art as in life, sometimes you have to make your own opportunities. Often, when creatives make opportunities for themselves, they make them for other creatives as well.

SCRATCH CLAW PUSH is a show that features interviews with professional creatives of all kinds: actors, authors, musicians, poets, filmmakers, podcasters, and many more.

Our goal is to find out how creatives claw out a place for their work in the world.
