Over Dinner Tonight

By: Alexa Buckley and Pod People
  • Summary

  • The magic of a dinner table links us all. Over Dinner Tonight invites listeners to sit down with inspiring guests over dinner to explore topics not typically on the table. Each episode gives listeners a front row seat to an unscripted, intimate dinner discussion through genuine conversation and camaraderie over a meal of their choosing. The dinners are easygoing and relatable – there is no prerequisite for listening in. By the time dessert arrives, we’ll realize that the more we learn about others, the more we really learn about ourselves.
