“I have been getting these nice postcards from SELC for awhile, but being busy I hadn’t paid too much attention to them — until now. I noticed that the latest one mentioned this podcast and I thought “well, that should be easy” since podcasts make it easy to enjoy documentaries whenever you have...”Read full review »

“I have listened in the past to the Broken Ground podcasts, but the Boxtown/Byhalia pipeline story is excellent. It incorporated the voices of the participants so well that I felt like I knew them personally by episode 7. The use of true life suspense in aid of the podcast kept me excited about...”Read full review »

“I have been listening to Broken Ground for a while now and have enjoyed the interviews with environmental justice activists and lawyers. Season 5 takes the podcast to another level in telling the story of citizens of Memphis in their fight against a oil pipeline and for a healthy community. I...”Read full review »

“Broken Ground is a smart, interesting, important podcast that everyone interested in environmental justice & human communities should pay attention to, and not only in the South. I’m loving it! Thank y’all for your thoughtful reporting.”

“Wonderful characters and great storytelling in this David and Goliath story about what happens when the people of Boxtown stand their ground against a big company who wants to put a pipeline through their neighborhood.”

“Stumbled upon your podcast while looking for podcast with environmental focus. Being a very proud Southerner and seeing your spotlight on part of the region peeked my interest. And being black female, I am reminded of my own experiences both good and bad from our area.
I quickly listened to all...”Read full review »

“There is not much more I can add to the accolades already provided in the reviews. This is the one podcast in my subscription that I listen to as soon as it is released. I am a life long Virgininian and see how the SE United States is affected by climate change. This podcast allows you to hear...”Read full review »

“I can only describe the production and organization of Broken Ground as artful. These stories of advocacy and redemption matter immensely, so I’m glad so much effort has been made to tell them. I also like that it’s all close to home— as a Virginian, I mean that literally!”

“So articulate, informative, and humane. As a Southerner, I find it compelling, stimulating and authentic. And unlike most of the podcasts I listen to, it does not jar my nerves by recording (or re-recording) at one and one-half time speed. Kudos to SELC.”

“Allow me to say I am “thankful” for all SELC continues to do even when citizens have no idea that someone is fighting for their benefit. I continue to learn each day about our environment and just how much SELC is involved for our protection. I learn so much from each podcast and will continue to...”Read full review »

“Obviously fake reviews. I doubt mine will stay posted long. Self righteous SJW’s preaching to their base. Faux-gritty subject matter and faux-alarmism. No such thing as southern-environmental-law-boondoggle, obviously trying to play off the SJW’s warped view of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s...”Read full review »

“This is the best new podcast I’ve heard in a long time. There aren’t nearly enough stories being told about environmental issues, particularly in the south, and you’ll realize after listening to just one of these episodes what we’ve all been missing. Could not recommend strongly enough.”
