Jay Leno

Different and new. Very well done interviews without interrupting the interviewee. I think you are going to make it after all. Don’t give up the podcasts, they are excellent.

Oliver Ambros ,

Impressive and extraordinary

One of the most intriguing concepts I've ever heard of. It is both gripping and humorous as listeners dive deep into the unknown lives and stories of prominent individuals in Hollywood. One of the best podcasts out there

That one class you sneak into everyday in College even though you’re not enrolled.

You’re picking classes, going through the class registrar trying to find the best courses. You’ve looked up professor reviews, talked to all your upperclassmen friends, but still get the same vague answer. Then you see the class of your dreams, “How to get away with Murder”, “Netflix and the future of TV", “Social Media Celebrities, and Silicon Beach”, “How to make Hollywood your B****". But the class has retrains, it fills up before you can enroll and before you know it, you’ve missed out on the class. So what do you do? You sneak in, and you sit in on the class because you know you’re going to learn the most from this class.

Of course all those classes are fictional, but the “Sneak-in Class” is this podcast. Sneak into it and absorb it for all it has to offer. Adam Faze is tenacious and eloquently pulls at the stories of success. Take it in and leave inspired. — Nate Mohler
