Thank you Simon for helping us get to know these kiwis better. They are very inspiring. I particularly felt very moved by Nathan‘s research and beliefs.
Love this pod and Simon’s interviewing way, have listened to them while out running a ultra marathon a day since 1 jan. look forward to hearing more soon
Love Simon’s Generally Famous podcasts. Great interview style and asks engaging questions. Guests are always interesting. Made a 4 hour drive to Christchurch fly by. Look forward to who you interview next. Please keep recording and sharing.
LOVE Simons podcast! So so informative and fun
I really enjoy Simon’s style of interviewing his guests. Listening to these feels like friends having a chat over a dinner that I am also attending - so very kiwi and I love that! I love Simon’s humility and the calibre of guest he has every episode. Really hope he keeps going with these…
Great questions
Just listened to your first 2 podcasts and really enjoyed them. Lived Raj telling you about his Hypnosis session. I am a Hypnotherapist and enjoyed your curiosity about the State of Hypnosis.
Really enjoying your pod Simon. Love the interesting range of guests, and your style.
Really enjoying this podcast. I’m loving finding out that generally famous people are generally pretty normal. Simon instigates a great conversation…I feel like I’m listening to a couple of mates having a yak. No politics, nothing to get wound up about…a podcast that’s a breath of fresh air :-)
I don’t miss an episode. Fantastic interviewing skills. You’re a natural. Keep them coming please!
U where wasted in politics my bro. Ur an Orsome interviewer. So interesting to hear about these people we c in the media and get a sense of what drives them. Keep it up mate 👍
GTFO with this glib rebrand attempt. Charming you are not, Simon.
Honestly the best of luck to the show, but after giving it a go the conversation was lacking any kind of effort or thought. For a start explain who the person is you are interviewing and why. Also the quality of questions where lacking in any authentic
substance.
After listening to the first episode I’m looking forward to more.
Simon interviews in a conversation type way which I enjoy.
The sound quality is good (no background sound or music & the voices are consistent) which is of great importance to me.
Being a kiwi living overseas I love feeling connected through other kiwis stories, love our quirks/terminology & way an interview feels like a genuine/casual chat.
