I really like how Josh asks all the right questions, With the greatest guests!
I use to live this podcast but what’s up with the ratio of men to women interviewed?
This guy is an awful interviewer. Just a famous guy talking to his famous friends. For the plebs.
I always loved actor’s interview (I was a big fan of inside the actor’s studio). I recently discover this podcast and felt in love with it. Having lost my only child recently in a motorcycle accident I cannot listen to music which brings back heartful memories. This podcast is now my go to listening everywhere. I even started listening to the old interviews and found myself smiling. I’m from Montreal and hearing Daniel Radcliffe talked about his love for poutine made me laught. With a lot of act... more

The Audio quality isn’t that great so much so that I can only listen at home because if I’m out for a walk, or around any noise at all, it’s almost impossible t... more
