  • Professional and thoroughly entertaining

    Pauline Frommer is the best interviewer I’ve come across in the podcast-o-sphere. If she has an author on, it’s clear that she’s actually read the book. What a concept! Her level of interest and detail with all of her guests make the podcast just fly by.
