    Ivy Insights

    The Be the Difference podcast, hosted by Chris Cox and Sammy Matthews, is a truly captivating and inspiring show that features interviews with Kingdom builders from all walks of life. The seamless and effortless synergy between the hosts is evident in every episode, as they share amazing stories that leave listeners excited for each new installment. With their insightful questions and informative dialogue before and after each interview, Cox and Matthews create a captivating atmosphere that keeps listeners engaged from start to finish.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is the perfect length of each interview, which lasts around 30 minutes. This makes it an ideal choice for listeners who want to make the most of their drive to work or have limited time in their daily routine. The concise nature of these interviews allows for focused and impactful conversations with guests who have truly made a difference. Additionally, Cox and Matthews showcase their interviewing skills by selecting a diverse range of individuals who have left a lasting impact on their respective fields. Each guest is handpicked with great care, resulting in a collection of interviews that genuinely inspire, inform, and encourage listeners.

    While it's difficult to find any major drawbacks to this podcast, one potential criticism could be the relatively short number of episodes available to date. With only 12 podcasts released so far, some avid listeners may wish for more content to enjoy. However, it's important to note that each episode released thus far has been exceptional in quality, leaving no doubt that future installments will continue to follow suit.

    In conclusion, The Be the Difference podcast is an outstanding addition to any podcast rotation. With its relatable length and engaging hosts, it offers an immersive listening experience that shines a light on individuals who have made a significant impact on society. Cox and Matthews are skillful at creating conversations that allow listeners to empathize with each guest's story while delivering an important message about making a difference for others. As an avid consumer of podcasts myself, I can confidently say that this show has earned its place among my favorites, and I eagerly anticipate each new episode.
