“I have no idea who this podcaster is or what his background is but he has such a natural instinct for how to put a podcast together, what listeners want and such an empathy that comes out that I’ve loved every episode that I’ve listened to.

“Found this through planet broadcasting. Sam has a talent for organizing information and telling stories in a compelling way. Not only are the stories engaging, but they are presented in such a way that I feel an emotional connection to each person I meet.
The headstone series is phenomenal.”

“Think This American Life (but Australian), with a dash of 99% Invisible, Conversations (with Richard Fidler), and Radiolab.
The Headstone series is a stand-out.”
