Really enjoyed it
Great format, guests and Jen is an engaging host.
Learned a lot from one of my new favorite artists! Thanks for this podcast
This podcast is witty and unique in its approach to musicianship in a way that seems necessary in the world right now. Humanising and casual... with a backbone.
This podcast is brilliant! I love the idea of interviewing celebrities and not hammering them about their latest film or album and talking to them like a real human being. It's incredibly refreshing to get to know your favorite artists in a non-invasive manner.
