Customer Reviews
Neon Jazz podcast with Rob Wolf MD, author 4 award-winning “Not a Real Enemy”
Joe from KC is a terrific host, and I can see why he's ranked #1 on the PodMatch list! He was welcoming from the get go, and must be a phenomenal DJ as well. Organized and well prepared, he kept the conversational flow going smoothly. It was a pleasure sharing our charge and mission with him and his audience. Thanks again, and we didn't even get to talk much about jazz-Recommend!
Rob Wolf MD, author 4 award-winning "Not a Real Enemy"
Great host!
Joe did an amazing, impromptu interview. If you're looking for a show that drops right into the goods and interviews off the cuff, this is one of the best versions of that style I've participated in!
Neon Jazz Interview
The host asked and presented very probing and interesting questions. It was an excellent interview. I thought there was great interaction between myself and the host. I could have gone on for another hour.
