  • A Rare Breed

    I hope the host of this podcast reads this because I hope he knows: yes podcasts are a dime dozen but podcasts like this are rare.

    He manages to channel intellectual conversations in a way that meets in an honest way, a significantly challenging way, on topics that are relevant to the evolving world as it is TODAY.

    So more than a review this is a thank you and ask to keep pushing this podcast forward.

  • Unexpected and intuitive

    Did not know what to expect from another interview podcast - but the research that goes in to specific topics and personas threw me off guard. It’s a relaxed format, consistently interesting and no nonsense irony or banter no one can relate to. I am hooked.
