Margarita is a wonderful interviewer; she clearly does her research and ask great questions but she also lets the conversation flow wherever it needs to.
She has great energy and selects awesome guests. Looking forward to more!
The host Margarita has a really great interviewing style that makes her episodes flow like a super organic conversation. She has a skill to really listen to the guest, and direct conversations in a very productive manner. I appreciate the unique subjects, from politics to culture, and she even invites controversial guests with whom she disagrees. The conversations are always respectful and immensely informative, and entertaining.
This is the first podcast I listen to when the weekly episode drops. Margarita is lively and asks intelligent, thoughtful questions. She also has a range of interesting guests who cover the spectrum of Jewish life in America.
I look forward to every new episode. Margarita is an amazing host and she brings a lot of passion to everyone she interviews.
Such a great podcast. Margarita talks to people of all walks of life with different backgrounds and perspectives. Truly wonderful
