Love this podcast

I’ve never been good at keeping up with the movie industry, but this podcast makes me want to start! This podcast provides such thoughtful and unique points of views in its interviews with directors, actors, etc. Can’t wait to listen to more!

This series

Really enjoying these podcasts. It seems this format makes it easy for these creative folks to express themselves a little more freely, honestly and thoughtfully than in the average filmed interview. Too often in filmed interviews actors consciously or subconsciously resort to acting, and writers, directors and producers become a little to camera conscious.

The interviewer does a very good job of focusing on the subject at hand , not assuming the role of subject herself. Bravo Impact, well done!
