  • Obsessed!!!!!

    This podcast is beautifully produced, and the creation reflects the content: the intriguing, multifaceted minds of artists, thinkers and musicians. These are the kind of interviews that make you aware or the implications and responsibilities around your creation or absorption of art. The mostly “silent interviewer” style is key; and the sound production is lush without being distracting or corny. Thank you for this excellent podcast!
