  • Mike Campbell episode

    What an awesome interview. Brian asked just the right questions, and with such honest enthusiasm, to bring out what a thoughtful, gifted, and humble guy Mike Campbell is. I enjoyed this a lot. Well done.

  • Too Cool for School

    Really enjoyed listening to this when the topics were interesting to me. But when they got all snicker snicker, giggle giggle and laughing about annexing Canada and 51st state jokes, it was a quick unfollow for me.

  • Why why the vocal fry

    Feels like the host’s main priority is to appear clever, rather than conduct an interesting interview. And speak in your actual voice, the vocal fry is just so weird and pretentious
