I only just found this podcast, and wish Is wasn’t just based around the Covid situation… as it’s a very good topic. The narrator is lovely to listen too also. I have just turned 40, and my loneliness is so much that I’ve been looking for podcasts just like this… Because I’m bed-bound by so many...Read full review »

Just finished Ep 23 about the remote island of Tristan da Cunha…fascinating story about a small community on a remote island, without many of the things the rest of us just learn to deal with. No strangers, no crime, no traffic, no stress. Pushes the boundaries of what I can even imagine. Curious...Read full review »

I absolutely love this podcast!

This narrators voice just blends in sentence over sentence. So monotone. Good info but hard to get past her terrible narration.

OMG I love this podcast! It’s fascinating, clever, and eye-opening. It’s the kind of podcast you wish all of humanity would listen to. Changed my life. Thank you!

I love Peg Fong’s voice, I hear kindness, intelligence, curiosity, and compassion in it. I feel like I’m having tea with my erudite neighbour lol. The team that puts these episodes together have done a fantastic job in exploring all the facets of loneliness. So many interesting stories, and when...Read full review »

This podcast provides insight and empathy in a time where we see that we need it most. The host explores loneliness and how we all cope with such empathy and understanding. And each episode is short enough to keep you engaged without becoming overwhelmed. Perfect for a walk or car ride! Peg...Read full review »

Loneliness has been so pronounced during the pandemic and I’m so glad there’s a podcast to dive deeper into this topic!

I’m ten episodes in and loving this podcast. Keen insights into loneliness and isolation told through an eclectic mix of historical research, engaging interviews and natural sound. It’s challenging my assumptions and shifting my perspective on what it means to be alone. If you’re struggling...Read full review »

These stories about loneliness are well told and intellectually engaging. As a senior, I have learned new things about culture and history and science all related to what we can discover about being alone. I encourage all to listen. We can all learn more from each other and form connections...Read full review »

This podcast is both well researched and beautifully narrated. Peg Fong is an excellent storyteller, covering fascinating science, characters, and historical events—all surrounding the critical issue of increased loneliness. I highly recommend listening to this.

Enlightening, entertaining and enriching. An intellectual smorgasbord of insights into human behaviours. Take Peg’s podcast along on your next walk.

Loneliness is a challenging topic, especially during a pandemic. But what a thoughtful podcast to show how we all can help each other through kindness and compassion. We have more in common than we do in differences. And there is no shame in what and how we feel. Now, more than ever, we need...Read full review »

I listened to the most of my first podcast today, the one on Boredom. I couldn’t get through it. The narrator’s voice was so monotone and boring. She must be an educator of young children because I couldn’t get past the feeling that I was in kindergarten. Only the guests showed any...Read full review »

Listening to the first podcast, I found myself googling Edward Hopper paintings and the Greensboro sit-in to see what I was hearing. The second episode was very timely. While it is well known that doing something for others "gets you out of yourself", it was really important to hear it...Read full review »

I expected this podcast to be a straightforward examination of that most modern of afflicions, chronic loneliness. Instead, I discovered a non-linear, nuanced, unpredictable narrative that blends history, psychology, literature and journalism to explore this topic in a fresh way. Kudos to Peg...Read full review »

I really enjoy this podcast! Very informative and interesting! I have never thought about loneliness in the way it is delivered and appreciate the shared knowledge and stories.

A very interesting first episode - very insightful and great writing. Looking forward to hearing more.

The hard work and thoughtful preparation that has gone into this podcast clearly shows. Everything is so well done, from the research and script to the sound design and theme song (can’t stop whistling this tune)! Can’t wait to hear more from Alone Together.
Nutsfornutrition via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/11/21
Alone Together lights up curiosity and makes what seems the singular experience of loneliness into something plural that everyone can relate to and learn from! Keep them coming!

Such an interesting and relevant concept! I am excited to hear more.

Topical content & great sound design, would defiantly recommend.
