  • Best interviewer!

    Once again, Cat Greenleaf proves why she’s such an amazingly unique talent and earned all those Emmys. Her interview skills are the best in the business. She has a singular way of relaxing her subjects so they feel both comfortable and a bit vulnerable which it’s important when talking about sobriety. She teases out the most interesting and most relatable parts of their lives. Nobody does it like Cat! 10/10
