  • I never miss an episode!

    The main reason I love this podcast is that it’s so original! Yes, the format is a typical interview but what a clever and ingenious way to learn about celebrities from the past! We no longer see them in their one dimensional zone. The interviews widen the scope and add balance and color to each person and family. I also love the ‘commercial breaks’ because they always tie in with the guest and era that they were raised in

    I’ve been listening to Josh some the beginning. The interviews are very intimate sometimes shocking yet entertaining. Josh asks questions in which the guests seem to be talking to each listener . Look forward to each episode every week.
