I just binge listened over the past few days to so many episodes of your show and it brought me so much joy and nostalgia. You remind me of Marc Maron with your ability to relate to your guests but with plenty of space for them to share their stories. Keep going!
He gets - somehow - some decent guests but I laughed out loud as he bragged about what a great interviewer he is - plot spoiler: he isn’t - and yet he’s been trying to get in touch with a previous guest who refuses to answer his calls. Hmmm, I wonder why?
Brando is so chilled and open minded to everyone’s view !
Love this show as it feels so relaxed, no egos and gives ya info ya never knew!
Cheers
