I love this show. Burke has a gift for making the interview so conversational that you feel like you’re in the room. It’s deceptively casual because in moments of comedy and banter, Burke always finds a way to mine each guest’s unique experience. As a mixed race artist myself, I always find something to relate to and laugh about: Definitely worth a listen!
