  • Smart, current and fun

    Kate Casey is like my west coast friend who keeps me updated on the latest and greatest in pop culture and entertainment. She also mixes in stories of her interesting life and personal history. She is also very knowledgeable about famous historical figures, especially the Kennedy family. There is something for everyone! Plus her Philly area roots don’t hurt either. Ha! Follow this show, you will be glad you did.

  • Long term listener

    I’ve been listening to Kate for probably 5 years now anyway. She gets all the guests you’d expect, but also gives us stories of people you would never expect. Like Ann Fessler, author of “The Women Who Went Away.” Kate asks the best questions, is always prepared and has done her research. A very thoughtful interviewer.
