One Happy Nielsen Family ,

My life will never be the same

This masterpiece changed me

fauxrat ,

Treasured, to this day

I can’t even bring myself to call this a podcast as it is incomparable, and so is David with his purely authentic snapshot sound bites of beautiful humanness that’s often missed under the radar. Again, INCOMPARABLE.

I’m not one to repeat listen or watch things but I often return to these episodes for feeling ya of joy, grounding, connection among others that are dissimilar to anything else I tap into.

Runs of episodes weren’t long running and inconsistently reappeared, but different from the many things we fall in love with and want more in an addictive way, because I’m so taken by each episode I wouldn’t want a thing to change. Full disclosure I’d gasp and touch my chest when I’d see a new episode after a long pause.

I hope that anyone like me craving this artful,rare, gorgeous pure storytelling by account will find it.

David- if you read this, THANK YOU FROM the bottom of my freaking heart. You’ll never know how deeply your work has moved and touched no doubt many more than myself.

-Kara

So glad you’re back.

After 4 years of keeping the faith, the new eps in the feed don’t disappoint. So glad this beautiful podcast is active again.
