Sit and Listen
So many good conversations with people I thought I knew and delightfully people I never heard of. Both make for great listening. Each conversation is natural and comes off with ease. I look forward to a new release each week.
Awesome
Love the show. The Dec19 episode is so far my favorite. Laughed and learned all at the same time. Beauty.
So nostalgic, so much joy
As a massive fan of his show years ago, it’s so refreshing and wonderful to know Craig is doing what he does best in long form. The best late night interviewer hands down. He needs his own Netflix interview series!
