I like the way you handle the interview, it is light and fun. Wish you would have pressed more on Rob, when he kept saying the way the current administration is handling the negotiations will not work. Why hasn’t it worked prior? I would love to listen to a back and forth with Rob and Jared Kushner

I love listening to this while drawing or doing something chores. The mix of Nayeema’s positive energy and vibes, along with smart people who have had experiences, makes it enjoyable and funny. Highly recommend to new comers on the app!

For example the cover art is truly horrendous.
