Customer Reviews
A true gem in the world of podcasts
As a huge Versailles fan, I was so excited and eagerly anticipated episode one of Con-Versailles-Tions. I am blown away. The episode far exceeded my expectations. Not only do we learn more about the beloved series, but we get insight into both the exceptional guest (in the case of episode one: George) and the spectacular host (the brilliant Alexander Vlahos). This is a true gem in the podcast world and I am not going to miss a single episode. Thank you Alexander Vlahos for this piece of art. Loved the twist of having a co-host. Excited to see if this happens.
THIS IS A MUST for all VERSAILLES lovers.
