"You’ve  Amazing, I've so enjoyed this, you really did your homework. I wish every interview was like this Joby, You’re really good, I really mean that. This has been a great conversation, you’re very good at what you do and I appreciate talking to you.

- The GO GO's Gina Schock

"I must tell you, you ask very interesting questions and in a different way. I like that!"

Thank you! I had an amazing time. I really appreciate your questions and thoughtfulness and you really brought things out in me that I haven’t had the chance to talk about.
- Smashing Pumpkins • Jeff Schroeder

"Incredible interview! In the end John (Oates) complemented Joby for being such a great interviewer and I agree! One of the best I've ever watched. He touched on much more than the usual fluff and it felt like a natural conversation between two people." 

- Kellie Howard

"This interview was superb. Through this interview, I experienced Donny (Osmond) as a warm, down to earth guy and you captured that!"

- Andrea Becker

"This is the best and deepest interview I have ever heard with Kevin (Bacon). The questions were relevant and thoughtful. Stuff we have not known. The answers came right from the brain and the heart. Kudos to Joby Rogers. You are a great interviewer and made it seem effortless."

- Marie Stoneh

"This is a must see interview. Even if you think you’ve heard every thought of Nancy (Wilson), you have not. This was a professional interviewer who carried on a detailed questionnaire that was fascinating. The interview peeled away at Nancy's philosophy of life and music. Kudos to Joby!"

- Terri Monesmith 

"This has been the most intelligent interview I've done in quite a long time". 

- Mike Reno (Loverboy)
