Nick is the real deal - as a podcast host and human. I’ve been a guest on hundreds of podcasts, and this was by far one of my favorite, most memorable conversations. Nick’s ability to ask engaging questions combined with his quality of listening is refreshing. He gets it! He’s an excellent speaker and can go deep with others because he’s dared to go deep with himself. I highly recommend this podcast! Nick deserves all the success in the world!
Thank you for sharing Liv story. As heartbreaking as it was to listen to. It gave a raw insight to the brutality of reality TV and the brutal edits.
I’ve been unable to focus on one show for the longest time. I’m happy to have found this. Nick is really and truly a lovely person. This show is incredibly thoughtful. Thank you so much for sharing. It’s important to remember to never strip someone of their humanity. These are people, not characters. ❤️
I really stick to true crime podcasts, but this is a breath of fresh air. Thank you for talking about much needed “stuff” and being a light!
Thank you for speaking the truth!
