Elevated, Intelligent, Thoughtful

The thing that strikes me about Lori Ference's podcast is the level of intelligence and thoughtfulness and depth. It all feels ... elevated! In a sea of podcast interviews, Lori's conversations with her guests go way beyond expected sound bites. You get the feeling they are telling Lori things for the first time, things they may not say anywhere else. And I think it's because Lori has a talent for interviewing, for know how to ask questions nobody else thought to ask. The results are very satisfying.
