Wow
This is a fantastic thoughtful and insightful podcast that gives one hope for the future. The interviewers focus on the guests—not themselves—and they do their research and ask insightful questions because they listen. They are also genuinely diplomatic with narcissistic guests(Paper woman). Really great podcast. So worth listening to.
