Tim O'B ,

Everyone Has a Story

This podcast is very well produced and reinforces the notion that if you listen, everyone has a story, usually a good one. But it takes a good story teller to frame it and deliver it. That's where Ethan comes in. He has a nice style, and he gets people to relax and talk openly about very interesting subjects, their stories. The tobacco farmer really painted a picture of what it's like to live that life. So interesting.

Would recommend!

High production value and interesting stories, I found myself “binge listening” several episodes at once.

Attempt number 5 ,

He has a great voice

I love how this podcast highlights the uniqueness of ordinary people. It's a very wholesome and entertaining listen.
