Customer Reviews
Topshelf
Writing this mostly to counter the whole “Bob interrupts too much” objection. Simply put: it’s just flat *wrong.* The great value of Bob’s podcasts is that he knows what his listeners want to hear. He’s often interviewing people that have immense spans of influence and all-but impossible-to-catalogue lists of achievements. Politely but firmly, Bob always makes sure we get a sense of who they are: what their childhood was like, their relationship with their parents, siblings, grade-school and high-school —what made them into the giants / rebels / originals they are. This is the good stuff! And then he gets to he big records, the key achievements and break ups…the headlines, and makes sure we get behind them. Bob does his homework. And this podcast is just another one of his generous and candid offerings. Would that we had dozens more like him.
