Like being a fly on the wall

I dare you to listen to this podcast without smiling. There’s so much heart, fun and passion and Gary Lennon has a lovable energy that’s sort of impossible to resist. Unlike other shows about the entertainment industry, G stories drops all the fanfare and plunges us you right into enthusiastic conversation between successful TV/film artists. I’m getting pearls of wisdom but am so busy enjoying the conversation, I barely notice. Can’t wait for episode 7.

G Stories is a must listen for anyone who wants to be a “success” in the entertainment industry. Gary Lennon is an incredible writer/producer/director who broke into Showbusiness on talent and grit alone. His positive outlook and incredible conversations with his guests is a delight to listen to and inspiration for all who do.

Invaluable Insight

Heart is at the core of all these enlightening conversations. A seasoned business success, it’s impressive how Lennon gets each guest to share about their inspiration, working style, and experience with such candor. His genuine respect for each person’s voice and a deep curiosity about their journeys-as actors, producers, writers or directors-makes for fascinating exchanges. A must-listen for wherever you are in the business.
