This podcast is made by Brodies genuine interest and thorough research into each of her guests. I have listened to this podcast all over the world in planes, buses and by the pool. my only gripe is sometimes the podcasts do no seem long enough as the questions asked pull the most fascinating conversation out of each guest.
