I enjoyed speaking with Joshua. We had an interesting conversation and he is an amazing human. I may not be able to use the show as I'm not certain I understand the answers to my questions and lots of his message etc. he has something there and is so very passionate but may need to work on his guest approach before signing up for others. Wish him all the best!

Alan, Ian & Chris were great to work with and we had a blast recording the show. Highly recommended for fantasy authors! They are the real deal of fantasy readers
โ€” Benjamin Schwarting, Oct 31, 2026
The Unexpected Detour Podcast with Frances Hammond was a great experience. Frances was very insightful, not only with her questions but her intuition with where my journey has taken me from then to now. I am deeply appreciative of her and her journey. She is giving back, and she is also in her true authentic self. I highly recommend this podcast!

I really enjoyed my time on Relationship Matters. It was a deep, meaningful conversation & I loved that Dr. Fortman was willing to let me take the audience through an actual experience.

Kim was it an exceptional host! Her questions were not only insightful, they were very in-depth - highly intelligent. She was well prepared and I could tell she did her homework on not only me and my background, but my journey as well. I highly recommend Kim Talks Podcast as it was great experience!

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.
