Ed Tracy knows how to get a person to talk, to open up, to "go there." He has an engaging style, wit, and finds interesting people from all walks of life who have a story to tell. Listening to his podcasts makes me imagine what it must've been like before television, when you'd sit and just listen to people making conversation. It's relaxing and even sometimes inspiring. Seems we're always in a rush, and time is precious. Listening to Ed Tracy interview is time well-spent.
