  • Great guests, great questions

    Mitzi has a pitch perfect interview presence and she asks the questions I wish I could ask in addition to clearly putting a lot of thought and effort into the interviews and honoring the authors’ work. I just became a supporter!

    So many rich inquiries and great conversations. This podcast has become an integral part of my everyday, and feel like it keeps me connected to questions I ask as a writer and artist. Mitzi’s such a terrific reader and her questions show her depth and the voluminous research time she spent on each author. Such a treat!
