The Thorn City Spotlight Show, produced by Thorn City Syndicate Management, amplifies the voices of creators, entrepreneurs, and change-makers who are building brands, shifting narratives, and transforming communities. We bring visibility with purpose spotlighting the people and stories driving meaningful transformation.
This is more than conversation. It’s your platform for networking, forming strategic alliances, and gaining the visibility that fuels real, lasting change.
In partnership with GMP Podcast Studios, we turn vision into execution with coaching, production, and training all under one roof.
Be Seen. Be Heard. Be Remembered.
We shine the spotlight. We build platforms. We tell stories that matter.
