Wow what a bubbly, positive, entertaining and engaging guest! And I’m saying all that after most of the subject matter discussed here revolved around wedding ceremonies (weddings, events that I normally detest and try to avoid attending).
But I was pulled right in from the very start of this podcast, and couldn’t stop listening! So now my only dilemma is around thoughts as to whether I might secretly be gay, or if this was just one heck of a great intervju… Nothing against gays, but I’m hoping for the later.
