I love the podcast and think that the premise that everyone encounters rejection. It is up to you how you react to it that will change your future for better or worse,that we get to learn form others that went before.
I think that a great story to add to this would be doing an episode on JK Rowling and how she wrote the Harry Potter series.
The stories are always interesting and motivating. At the end of every episode, I find myself either in happy tears or dancing my butt off to the catchy theme song and feeling uplifted. You will definitely not regret following this show. Infinite stars!
This is a great podcast content-wise the narration is cloying and grating sonically. A new voice would allow this podcast to be 5 star. Writing is definitely 5 star
Someone recommended listening to the story of Stephen King. I was hooked and couldn’t stop listening to the rest of the episodes, Apostrophe does an amazing job researching each show and sharing insights that help you relate with the story’s characters. I’m still listening and catching up with your seasons but looking forward to more new episodes!!
The research isn’t deep - it’s like a skim from Wikipedia - the host is flat and sounds unsure - there are worse shows, and it’s not offensively bad but that still doesn’t make it good.
