Rec. #785: David Tennant Does a Podcast With ...




What: David Tennant Does a Podcast With... is a great listen because it overcomes two General Truths of Podcasting. 

[#1: Generally, actors are not good hosts. They are too interested in their own bits. #2: Generally, men do not have good podcasting voices. They interrupt and they mumble.]

To his great credit, Tennant comes across as someone who is genuinely interested in what his guests have to say and is focused on encouraging them to say as much of it as possible. He's started with his friends, which leads to the additional delight of hearing Tennant and Olivia Colman casually refer to one another as "DT" and "Collie."

Representative guests: Olivia Colman, Whoopie Goldberg, Ian McKellen

How to get it: David Tennant Does a Podcast With... is available on all the usual podcast platforms. New episodes drop on Mondays and are about 50 minutes long. The podcast just launched in January, so it won't take you long at all to catch up.
