Ian is a fantastic interviewer and elicits fascinating gems from his guests. The conversation is intimate and one feels like they're eavesdropping on a exchange between two close friends. The format allows for thoughtful ruminations on life's big questions and I felt like I really got to know each guest on a deep level. There is nothing shallow about this series. It is emotional, edifying and profoundly nourishing. I love it and hope there'll be more!!
