dusT has been working as a freelancer within the CS scene for OVER a decade, and today for episode 88 of the Half Time with K Bizzy podcast, he breaks down some of the...harsh realities of this line of work. The constant travelling, the endless hours of preparation for desk work, the fear of not getting another gig, to even picking up a job outside of the CS space, dusT covers it all. He has seen it all and has quite the story to tell. Nonetheless, it's been great to see him more in 2025, let's keep our fingers crossed that we see a similar pattern for him in 2026!
