Lovely!
I really enjoy this podcast. It’s relaxing and absorbing and covers a wide range of guests and topics so that it doesn’t seem formulaic. Nice to have a reminder that celebs are just people. Looking forward to more episodes!
Warm hug of a podcast.
Can’t wait for this to return. Genevieve comes across extremely warm & down to earth. Discovered during the lockdown & was a welcome relief from the stresses of daily life.
