Customer Reviews
Great insight with lots of laughs
Janet Varney is a great host and has a nice interviewing technique that often yields a unique perspective on the subject. Janet is a gifted comedic improviser and most of the guests are also funny people, so most of the time, a simple conversational interview also becomes very funny in addition to providing more background on the stories of these interesting people.
