In today's episode, we've got a great interview with Matt Bernstein, who is a supernumerary with the Canadian Opera Company! What's that? Think of it like being an extra, but in an opera!

We talk about how Matt gets a kick out of being a part of the creative process, and get to see behind the scenes of some of his favourite art.

PLUS, Pete talks about one of his more niche hobbies of phone box spotting!
