Our Podcast

about creative entrepreneurs in design, fashion, and photography.

On Confidently Controversial, your hosts, Emily and Kim explore the movies that made them and most likely messed them up. Join these life-long besties as they view things with older, wiser and much more wrinkly eyes. They aren’t trying to change the past, just find out what the heck they were exposed to that made them this way. You know, nervous, anxious, antisocial, and afraid.

New episodes post every Friday.

Emily Paul

Emily Paul was born and raised on the Cape of South Jersey, where her talent for running, writing and making really funny jokes started at a young age. She earned her bachelor of fine arts in writing for media and communications from The University of the Arts in Philadelphia and a master's degree in mass communications/media studies from Kent State University. Like the true left-handed Aries she is, Emily is passionate about many things, creative beyond belief and has a relentless determination that drives her to take on work that changes the world one carefully written word at a time. She loves Coca-Cola products and European chocolates, hates people who swim at night, does a spot-on Louis Armstrong impression and keeps a really messy car. Oh, and she birthed three humans with her husband who is sadly not Father John Misty.  

Kim Tweed

Kim Tweed is a writer and creator from Cape May County, New Jersey.  She holds a bachelor’s degree in journalism and professional writing from Rowan University and a master's degree in integrated marketing communications from West Virginia University. Kim has worked in various industries including publishing, fashion retail and healthcare and has created numerous award-winning advertising campaigns. In addition to being an 80s/90s pop culture aficionado, Kim is a novice Lego Maniac, a low-key Disney Adult and a highly vocal advocate for public libraries. She is also a top-notch wife, aunt, sister, dog-owner and best friend whose acerbic wit is cherished by many… except for her mom who doesn’t care for it.
