“I’ve tried to listen to a handful of episodes from this pod now, as there are always incredible guests on that I want to learn more about! Unfortunately, I can barely get through any full episodes. Reason being, I find it frustrating that the hosts - while they seem like nice guys - talk about themselves on long, unrelated tangents wayyy too much. The episodes feel like they’re more about the hosts with guests only having small interjections, vs the other way around - like it should be.
I’d suggest taking some lessons from the ‘How I Built This’ podcast. It is a fantastic example of how to conduct an engaging and focused interview.
Because let’s be real, that’s why everyone wants to listen to this NC F&B pod in the first place - to hear from the guest(s) being interviewed!
Maybe you guys can let your subjects talk a bit more, while you lean back and simply ask leading questions without taking over the pod!?
Two stars for quality guests.”
