- Remarkable Host and Subject Matter
Blair has a really wonderful voice and approach to really touchy and difficult subject matter. He is very well-versed in his topic and is able to conduct interviews with a level of engagement that stands out from most. He is a joy to listen to and each episode seems to have something to glean regardless of whether it applies to you directly.

Blair is one of the best interviewers in the pod cast game. He approaches each guest and subject with curiosity, humility, and compassion. I end every episode with more understanding and knowledge.
Apple Podcasts5zucked upUnited States6 months ago - What a gem (the show and also Blair)
Every single episode of Relationscapes punches way above its weight. Every single episode is more powerful than I could ever imagine. Even the ones that I don’t think will interest me! It is because Blair is one of the greatest interviews on the mic, and I am not just saying that. His engagement with his guests is next level. Tell your friends about this show. And don’t just listen to an episode you think applies to you. Listen to them all.

I’ve listened to a few podcasts and they’ve all been incredible. Every guest has been so unique and beautifully expressive, and you can tell how much thought Blair puts into the questions he asks as well as his genuine interest and attention to the answers.
Apple Podcasts5Michael WorleyUnited Statesa year ago - Thoughtful and Informative
I’ve been listening to Blair all the way back to his days at the Maxwell Institute. I’ve always been impressed with how much research he does before. This really allows him to dive deep.
