“When the pandemic hit is when I really decided that, since I was unemployed and had nothing but time, I would focus on trying to put out a good show.” (13:57)

“My goal is to not just get a name on, but to have somebody come on and have a good, honest conversation.” (18:38)

“I’ve always had an attraction to talking to people. I’m a people person.” (26:08)

“I’m talking about just being able to do this as a show, have advertisers and make it a stable show. Will it ever be that way? I don’t know. But, what drives me is just the collaboration with other podcasters. I want to be involved in the podcasting community as much as I can.” (31:51)

“I love talking to people. It’s literally a creative outlet for me and I just love doing it. I love talking to all these people. It’s so much more than just getting somebody famous on. If it wasn’t for that show, I probably would not be having these kinds of conversations with these people ever. So, for me, it’s about creating an experience and creating something that I can be proud of.” (43:15)
