  • Consistent and great.

    I listen to a lot of podcasts and audiobooks, and Full Blast is one of my favorites. Geoff has a good voice for radio and he keeps the conversation flowing naturally. You’ll laugh a lot and maybe even shed a tear or two. You don’t have to be a maker to enjoy this podcast, so give it a listen!
