One of the best podcast interviews I’ve ever experienced. The host was incredibly thoughtful, warm, and so well spoken. He has a rare ability to ask meaningful questions, truly listen, and create a space where you feel completely comfortable sharing your story.
The conversation felt natural, authentic, and deeply personal. I walked away feeling heard, inspired, and grateful for the experience. An exceptional host and storyteller who brings out the very best in his guests. I would highly recommend being a guest on his podcast.
Books and Brews Podcast
★★★★★

Amazing podcast and a truly enjoyed being a guest with Maryannand her amazing work she was doing with this very important messaging. A very kind host, and she is truly authentic and wants to try to help fix our systems that are so broken. I truly appreciated every moment of it and I really enjoyed my experience. I cannot recommend enough!

I really enjoyed interacting with Karen both in the interview itself and outside of it as well. Great show and great experience as a guest.
I had an amazing time working with Donald. it felt natural and genuine. Donald was professional and kind. He loves what he does.
The Robcast Podcast
★★★★★
Rob is THE MAN! easy to communicate with and a real pro on the microphone. We had a great discussion and I'm glad we connected.
Way OUT of Childhood Trauma
★★★★★ PRO
Barb was really cool, easy to talk to and made the experience quick. She understands so much about human behavior and psychology and I felt like I was talking to someone who really cares. As a podcaster, Barb also understands that format and formula are 2 different things, and made sure the interview suited the information I had to share and was not long and dragged out like many podcasts. I highly recommend this show.
Enjoyed doing the show very much. Great host and platform.
Ask Adam Live
★★★★★
Great host and person.
Autoimmune Adventures
★★★★★
Stacy, Becky, and Alysia were my favorite hosts in all the years I've done podcasts. I was impressed with the level of detail they provide to the guests beforehand - a well-thought-out show packet with all the steps and insight into the format. It was a special and unique experience to get to be on with three sisters, and I appreciated their openness to letting me share my story and unique perspective on healing and getting better. Very professional, engaging, and you can tell the heart they put into their podcast. 5/5
The SEO Lab
★★★★★
It was a pleasure to meet Butrint and be a guest on The SEO Lab, we connected well and decided to be each other's guests. I recommend having Butrint as a guest.
How points work
10 per recorded episode · 5 per review written · 3 per review received · +1 for each 4★ received, +2 for each 5★.
Only connections marked as recorded count, and a review only counts once its episode has been recorded. Episodes are dated when they were recorded and reviews when they were written, so the two can land in different periods. Profiles that have paused matching are not shown.
