Trust Me, I'm a Decorator

Trust Me... I'm a Decorator! is a new podcast hosted by renowned television personalities and designers Debbie Travis and Tommy Smythe. While you may know them best as decorators, they'll be covering all of their favourite things; travel, relationships, food and more with many special guests along the way.

To ease their boredom during the pandemic, they began a weekly instagram series sharing stories about their respective lives. Tommy was in Toronto, and Debbie was in Tuscany and they found such joy inviting followers into their homes. Listeners enjoyed the content so much that they decided it was time to start their own podcast.
