Mr Pepperdine

I like this guy, charming to a fault! I think we would be friends IRL.

Doc TOC ,

Excellent insights

This really is an excellent show. Tom Pepperdine bring an easy charm to his interviews, and really leaves space for the writers to discuss their process. These episodes feel less like interviews and more like a conversation between friends, inviting an intimate connection between author and listener. The production is great too; the episodes feel like they could have been created by the BBC rather than a team of one. I can’t wait for more episodes!
