  • One of my favs

    The start of the third season of this podcast jumps right back into the depth it started from with a cut-to-the-quick kind of conversation about justice, mercy, power, race...all the things we need to have conversations about. I’ve listened through the first 2 seasons, and that’s what I love most about this podcast. It’s about real situations and artistry that have important impacts for all of us in community together and it challenges us as listeners to continue learning, to create, to speak ... more

  • Engaging and Inspiring

    Refreshing to hear honest conversations, with thoughtful questions and great content. Just found this through the Ryan O'Neal interview, but I'm hooked!

    Geek comment : I do think the audio could be compressed a bit more so that the audio is louder and voices clearer while out and about, but even still turn it up and give a listen.

    Just listened to the podcast with Ryan O'Neil of Sleeping At Last. This was such a gift to me, as a songwriter. Ryan's songwriting always inspires me and gives me chills. His combination of melancholy and hope with lush string arrangements and piano is incredible. Justin McRoberts, thank you for sharing this conversation.
