  • Wonderful conversations

    This is a marvellous podcast which really reminds me of what’s most important in life. I love to hear the stories of the paths people’s lives have taken. I would also love to hear Craig himself interviewed by someone who asks him these same questions - we pick up his story in little bits, but it would be really interesting to hear him tell it from start to finish, and reflect on his own learning.

  • A really uplifting listen

    Craig Oliver is utterly brilliant, an intelligent & thoughtful host who gently probs to get real insights out of his guests. An antidote to the abrasive cut and thrust of political commentary. Hugely enjoyable.

  • Desperately Seeking Wisdom

    I am so glad to have come upon this podcast. I not only find the guests immensely interesting but I learn so much from the conversations. I admire Craig Oliver’s manner in conducting the interviews. He is so well prepared and relaxing in his style of questioning, I feel as if the discussion is happening in my living room. Well done!!! more
