  • Thoughtful conversation and interesting ideas

    Ariana is a great host who provides a forum for guests to tell their interesting stories and share their ideas. Taking a step back to let a guest share their biography while also keeping the conversation moving is a tricky balance, but Ariana threads the needle quite well. For anyone interesting in the performing arts, this podcast really gives you a look at the day-to-day lives of artists through honest and meaningful dialogue.
