Connecticut Unfiltered
Connecticut Unfiltered is a podcast about the people redefining what it means to live, work, and build something meaningful in Connecticut — from entrepreneurs and creators to leaders shaping culture across the state. We talk about why Connecticut is the nation’s pizza capital, why it’s far from a drive-through state, and why this isn’t your grandma’s Connecticut anymore.
If you care about Connecticut lifestyle, local business, entrepreneurship, tourism, food culture, community, and New England living, this show highlights the voices proving Connecticut is a place people are actively choosing — not passing through.
