  • A diplomatic reveal with a twist.

    If you want to meet the real characters behind the scenes that inspired the edgy series, this is the podcast. Like the series, each interview has a nice reveal, and something unexpected in store. The interviewer has a good background and knows how to draw her guests out in an enticing manner. Loved that series and the interviews are a great way to savor it again while we await the next installment.
