The first 4 podcasts

Adam Claus is an exceptional interviewer. These have been entertaining in and of themselves but are also enlightening on aspects of this industry that I knew nothing about. It serves to increase my appreciation for all of the hidden talent that makes everything I watch possible - and these days I’m watching a LOT!

Very entertaining!

I didn’t even know I was curious about the subject until three minutes in. The interview was fascinating and informative at the same time which is a hard to navigate. The host nailed it. The questions asked were interesting to the guest and sparked enthusiasm in the responses. Can’t wait for the next episode.

Interesting!
