INTRODUCING THIRTY

Thirty minutes. One conversation. A story worth telling.

Welcome to THIRTY — An online interview magazine built around a simple idea: Sometimes the best stories happen when we slow down and give people time to talk.

Every THIRTY interview begins with half an hour. No rushed sound bites. No endless list of predictable questions. Just a conversation designed to get past the polished answers and discover the person underneath. But it doesn't take 30 minutes to read - that's just the length of the interview.

Our subjects may be famous or completely unknown. They may be athletes, actors, musicians, politicians, journalists, artists, business leaders, or simply someone whose story deserves to be heard.

Because everyone has a story.

And sometimes all it takes to find it is a little time, a good question and someone willing to listen.

Each conversation is edited into a feature story and ends the way an old newsroom tradition once signaled that a story was finished:

-30-

The story ends there.

The conversation doesn’t.

Welcome to THIRTY.
