Everybody is Interesting - podcast cover

Everybody is Interesting

These are interviews with interesting people, which can be anyone - maybe well known, maybe not. Does everyone have an interesting life, and have interesting things to say? I think so. I don’t give you any background or context about them ahead of time. You’ll just have to listen - carefully - to what they say. These are conversations, not interviews. I don’t have a prepared set of questions. I just let the discussion go where it will.
