“Continue to enjoy the interesting people and their stories. Even though many are unfamiliar to Australian listeners, Alec never fails to engage in wonderful conversations that inform and entertain.
I have a request…. Surely there’s no actor with such longevity as Tim Matheson, and none better...”Read full review »

“So grateful to get to hear Alec Baldwin on the regular! Not only is he probably one of the best interviewers out there but I just love hearing him - honestly he doesn't even need a guest because he’s just so entertaining to listen to. I know he probably hates regular show business now but I...”Read full review »

“I have been listening to this podcast for years. Alec Baldwin is an erudite and articulate renaissance man with an inquiring mind and a sharp intellect. He explores a broad range of topics with insightful questions and always allows his guests to answer completely.
I am also very happy to hear...”Read full review »

“I’m looking at the mixed bag of insightful vs hateful reviews. I don’t find Alec arrogant or egotistical any more than the rest of us who think there so very smart. I am tired of hearing people weigh in about his ongoing legal battle. I find it interesting that a sanctimonious Republican indicted...”Read full review »

“I’ve been binging this podcast and find myself singing along! Some of the interviews are with musical theater. Not only is it wonderful to hear their journeys, but the interviews end with a song. I’m loving it! I also appreciate that these aren’t fluff interviews. Guests cover the highs and lows—...”Read full review »

“I’m a long time listener. Alec’s knowledge and information never ceases to amaze me. I am currently listening to “Ben Steele, American “. A bit of a departure from the usual “Here’s the Thing” interviews this is a fascinating and informative verbal documentary. Outstanding work by Baldwin and...”Read full review »

“After being in the spotlight once again this week for being an advocate for violence, it
makes perfect sense that Alec Baldwin has his own podcast, no one loves the sound of their own voice as much as he does. He excels at bloviating there is no one better at it than him, just ask him. He...”Read full review »

“So the loaded gun in your hand just went off and fired itself? Come on Alec, you and your wife with the fake accent have destroyed all credibility. Almost as ridiculous as a Long Island boy pretending to be a cowboy in a self produced Western .”

“I’ve just discovered this podcast and I think Baldwin is utterly fantastic: his knowledge, appreciation for his guests and their art, and — despite what some reviewers say about his habit of interrupting — interview skills. Also, I see Baldwin has been doing this podcast for a decade. Unbelievable.”

“Great podcast. I enjoy his interviews but wish he wouldn’t interrupt his guests so much. His guests will be answering his question and then he’ll interrupt them and ask them another question. Please let your guests talk.”
