Simon is the best. Both his Alien UFO and Paranormal Afterlife podcasts are easy listening, populated with intriguing guests. Some reviewers in this forum have groused that he only interviews people who have written books, which I say is brilliant. Would you tune into a talk show on television who has ordinary Joes talking about a topic in which their knowledge is limited or non existent? No! You watch because those people have either direct experience or academic expertise about a given subject.
Simon’s interviewing style is gentle yet probing, putting his guests at ease, creating an atmosphere that invites guests to open up. And, he seems genuinely interested in what they have to say; guests often remark on the insightful nature of his questions, an indication that he’s done his homework and actually read the books they’re talking about, not just scanned the chapter headlines and come up with some vague, boilerplate queries.
Well done, Simon! You keep me thinking on those long commutes!
