Name Taken Podcast: Who Else Out There Is Named Michael Marshall?
According to the US Census records there are at least 2900 Americans that share my full name (Michael Marshall). Unsurprisingly there are many more across the greater English-speaking world. So, I decided to set out and interview the other Michael Marshalls to see what they're all like. Why not right? And it's actually been a riot. Michael Marshalls are rad! Among us are authors, pro athletes, activists, journalists, artists, really cool dads, architects, carpenters, inventors, actors and so much more. Each week I speak to a different Michael Marshall about their own experiences as well as their shared experience of our name.

We talk at length about the vibrant local music scene in Johannesburg and get deeply philosophical. Do we share more than a name? Is it meaningful? How can the world feel so big and so small at the same time?
