    I am afraid I can’t understand why anyone might interview a “fan” of David Cassidy’s who didn’t even know him.I get he was “inspired” but so were a lot of people.I guess I am more interested in those people who actually knew David and can add to our understanding of him as a person. It’s kind of like that game 6 degrees from Keven Bacon, which everyone is, if everyone who knew who David was or listened to his music is interviewed.I was disappointed.Some are not personal “Cassidy Connections”

    Thank you for validating David Cassidy
    I love this pod cast. I am stunned by the types of people who’ve had such a variety interactions with David beyond his fans and none of them has forgotten them. I never really thought about it! I just thought everyone was like me— a once little girl who adored him and his music. But this podcast reminds me of the depth of reach of David. Now THAT’S a legacy! Now THAT’S connection!!! Thank you Louise!

    It’s the continuation of our love affair with David.
    Listening to the reminiscing of fans in their very own voices is not only the icing on the Cassidy Connections “cake” or even the cherry on top...it’s the excitement and love of wanting to share it with the world. I so look forward to the next episode of how this beautiful man affected so many lives with such unending joy.
