The content and topics is obviously very interesting and the guests are great and insightful. But I also wanted to say that, as someone who listens to a lot of podcasts, the interview style is perfect! Hayley really listens to what the interviewee says and moves the conversation in a logical direction. Keep up the awesome work and I will keep binging the rest of the back catalogue!
Apple Podcasts5MeeeeeeeeeeeeeeertAustraliaa year ago - All time fave
As a reality tv addict (and survivor contestant wannabe) I am enthralled with every single episode. I love hearing how the sausage is made, peeking behind the curtain and into the realm of the creators and learning how much passion and personal sacrifice the makers of our favourite shows display. I listen to lots of poddies, but this is my fave.
