    MacG literally knows how to interview guys. Like he makes it easy for his guests to feel at home. S/O to him. I like how Sol respects MacG when comes to interviews. He does not say much. The best podcast in Africa.

    As a radio aspirant Dj Fresh's interview is my favorite, together with Joe's. I'm only halfway through this and the most important things he's already implicitly mentioned are;
    ¹Appreciate your impact & exploit it
    ²Document your work &
    ³You don't have an imposter syndrome if you speak English fluently.
    I sell bananas currently & I've made a huge impact before I got cancelled, I didn't exploit my inspiration & influence while I had it & what this man has just said clarified it it's enabling! McG, you're doing the Lord's work my man. Bless
