  • My go to guilty pleasure

    Love this podcast - not just because I’m an opera singer but because it is just so full of all the things I love - especially real conversations about life - and the laughing - we all need do the great big ugly cry laughing

    I guess I’m now a part of the “every worder club “ . Do we get a button or sticker?

    Also, I’m listening in reverse to them - turning back time…

  • Hmmm

    Why why why have such wonderful guests if you don’t let them talk? I guess all singers love the sound of their own voice, but then why bother having guests? Apart from that, love the pod ;)

    I saw Ben Bliss as Ferrando in Cosi. He is a great Mozart singer and seems like such an interesting fellow. Please do part 2. He has great stories to tell.

    This had to be one of the most inspiring episode. How David transformed his career was remarkable. I cannot imagine having to start from the bottom after achieving so much so quickly. Loved every minute of the 2.5 hours episode.
