Very fun and engaging
This is a really nice show. I just started listening and thus far my favorite episode was with Tom Blomquist. He had many great stories to share on projects he wrote and produced for, especially his Chuck Norris story. Tom is so down to earth. I really love how Emily and Trey conduct their interviews. I think they really get the guests comfortable and they're both funny as well.
