Customer Reviews
Quality interviews
I haven’t lived in Salt Lake since 2018 but I still listen to Radio West. I find Doug to be a skilled and thoughtful interviewer and I love the breadth of topics that the show covers. Additionally his voice is very calming to me. I don’t listen to every episode at this point but it’s still on my regular rotation of podcasts.
Best Interviewer in Broadcasting
As the host, Doug consistently leads guests in the most insightful, meaningful conversations possible. I’ve recommended this podcast to others more than any other podcast I listen to. You’re a national treasure, Doug Fabrizio!
Consistently fantastic
Doug Fabrizio and his team manage to always talk about prescient topics affecting the southwest, giving them ample time and consideration (although you usually want more). I’ve been a KUER sustainer for years just to support this show. Keep up the good work.
