“I’ve long been a fan of Mike Fenton-Stevens. When I finally got to meet him (in Bordon, Hampshire), he was just the lovely man I hoped he’d be. That comes through in these podcasts. A gentle and interested interviewer, he draws engaging stories from a range of successful actors and comedians. There are some low points: what amazes me is Mike’s ability to remain friendly with some of the most egotistic and solipsistic people I’ve ever heard trot out their inadequacies in a public broadcast (two, or perhaps three, of them to my mind, so far). I shan’t dwell on them, however, because most of his interviewees are such fascinating, charming and self-effacing people. It’s impossible to fail to warm to Chris Addison, Lucy Porter, Justin Edwards and Andy Hamilton. Genuine, endearing people! I absolutely recommend this series of podcasts . Hint: if they let Mike take part, don’t interrupt him, enjoy his stories too and seem genuinely to enjoy his company, they’re the good ones. Thank goodness they are in the majority.”
