“I’ve listened to two episodes so far: the one featuring Ryan Sprague and the other with Sapphire Sandalo. The interview with Sprague was intriguing, informative, and filled with great probing questions that piqued my curiosity on the topic of UFOs. So I was eager to dive into another episode, this time on the topic of the Duende in Filipino culture. As a Filipino woman myself, I was excited at the prospect of learning more about a facet of my heritage that I was not familiar with. Unfortunately it was hard to even finish the episode because I found myself listening to more about Bowser’s personal history rather than allowing Sandalo to speak on her experiences and knowledge. It might be too early to compare how Bowser interviews men vs women, but there was a stark difference with how much he inserted himself and his own anecdotes and tangents into the conversation with Sandalo and how minimal that was with Sprague. At one time Sandalo actually apologized for interrupting his monologue in order to include a piece of her own relevant experience. I wonder if he realized how much he had monopolized the interview. I hope this can be taken as constructive feedback in order to help develop better interviewing skills, particularly with women, as this podcast continues.”
