I spent years interviewing celebrities of the 1950s in magazines before pivoting to the popular 'podcast' format. I spent S1 with glamorous starlets like Breena Howard and Eleanor Bender and S2 with 'child' actors like Gary Casteel and Anita Castle. These aren't formal interviews but rather a one-on-one conversation asking questions about the careers of these once-aspiring entertainers.
