About — Brandy, Adam and the studio | Speak Freely Studio
About the studio
Everyday perspective from everyday people
Speak Freely Studio is a Pennsylvania podcast and media company founded by Brandy Franco and Adam Puzio. We produce two shows and the short-form video that travels with them, built on one belief: meaningful stories are not limited to celebrities or industry leaders.
We emphasize storytelling, humor and relatability, and we work with people as much as we talk to them — guidance and hands-on support for individuals and brands who want to make content of their own.
Who we are
A married couple, a studio and a rotating cast of guests and guest hosts. Two owners who still edit their own episodes.
Why we speak
Open conversation, diverse viewpoints, and room for people to finish a thought — including the ones nobody else is asking about.
How we create
Long-form on the feed, short-form where people already are — YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and Facebook, from one recording.
The hosts
Co-founder & host
Brandy Franco
Studio and podcast owner, founder, and one half of the couple at the mics. Adam and I have five kids together. We don't have all the answers, but we're good company. Movies, music and art are my thing, and I'll travel anywhere for a good story.
Co-founder & host
Adam Puzio
Software engineer and architect for over twenty years, coach for more than ten. Devoted husband, father, step-father and friend. I'm honest about my shortcomings, and I have a gigantic sense of humor to go with them.
Guest host
Dion
Loving husband, father and son, passionate about podcasting. I'm Adam's best friend and biggest supporter, with a sense of humor of my own to help me cope with him. You'll hear me guest hosting on Legends of Laughter and Project Hail Mary.
