Customer Reviews
Mr. Martin
wow, very cool interview, and great overall idea. hearing a fantasy author who seems to know real, conflicted, complicated people and cites faulkner was totally unexpected. can we expect more?
my 2 favs
these 2 have got to be two of my favorite actors/celebrities whatever you want to call them, of all time. Alan Alda is so well spoken and informed, i am almost done with his book which i would definetly recommend. Stephens show just breaks all stereotypes and the fact that he can sell a cast for thousands is a true test of his influence...would definetly recommend both.
Alan Alda
I could listen for hours. I didn't realize how well spoken and aware Alan Alda was.
