“I feel like I could listen to her read the phone book and still be enraptured. But it turns out they're also fascinating conversations. I don't think I've ever heard someone ask the people they are interviewing "is there anything you'd like to ask me?" before.”Read full review »

“Thank you for such a great program. As a Arthur Jafa addict, I must say it’s one of his best out of the hundreds circulating out there. It really touched me as I listened to my cousin who is like a brother recount his battles that bought him to this point in his life.
We grew up together and...”Read full review »

“Dear Helga, this last episode with Kevin Young was particularly easy to connect with, crowned by your in-progress poem about your mom’s illness. Having lost my mom to Alzheimer’s after over 10 years of losing her, it was really evocative and moving. Thank you. Fondly, Lydia”
