“I am an Australian who started following Kirsty on Desert Island Disc. Kirsty’s interview style is fluid and seamless, she has the unique ability to listen, understand and researches her interviewee.”

“I’ve been an admirer of Kirsty since her Desert island disc days. She’s such an intelligent interviewer and brings out the best of her subjects. Would like more of her on podcasts or radio or tv.

“I listened to the interview of Linda Evangelista which was really fascinating but I wish the interviewer had let Linda speak, ramble, even finish her thoughts. Instead, the interviewer seemed to need to share her awe she is talking to Linda, the supermodel. It was annoying.”

“Kirsty Young is a brilliant interviewer. She let’s the guest speak. A diverse collection of guests. Thus far I have listened to Linda Evangelista, Jamie Oliver and Steve Cooghan. She handles difficult topics with sensitivity.”

“No one interviews better than Kirsty. Her thoughtful, intelligent and highly individualistic approach to the diverse personalities she’s interviewing, quite simply, gets the best out of them. It is testament to her talent, research and insights. And then there’s that voice. The Grayson Perry...”Read full review »

“I don't hear Capaldi interviewed very often so tuned in with a lot of interest. Though Capaldi didn't disappoint- engaging, funny and informative - Kirsty Young constantly put words in his mouth and spoke over him.
