You are a delight and your interviews are amazing. Ann Patchett was a wonderful guest. You two are on par with each other. Nobody else holds a candle to her.
Adriana Trigiani has organized the most low pressure book club for readers. She is an excellent hostess who asks insightful connections of the most interesting book creators. My one wish would be for consistent high quality audio equipment to be used. I have hearing challenges and the built in microphones on computers do not produce consistent or audible sound quality.
I have learned something new and interesting from each of her podcasts. I appreciate how she is able to ask insightful questions and still infuse that great personality of hers.

Adriana does such a great job getting authors to talk about themselves as well as their books. I realize they are real people with many of the same struggles we have. Their characters show us ways to deal with those struggles.
