Always enjoy these interesting conversations, which are filled with big idea questions as well as relatable stories. The guest list is diverse, and I particularly like hearing authors I know and love.

I love all of Kelly Corrigan books, and I love to listen to her podcast. She brings humor and insight to all her conversations. I always learn something new from all of the podcast.

Kelly, I am a big fan of your writing, and was so excited to learn of your podcast. I've now listened to all episodes posted, and hope you are making more. Atwood, Lamott and Christoff were my favorites. Two suggestions: (1) Be a better listener. You are so funny and clever, and it's a joy...Read full review »

Kelly's ability to dig deep with sensitivity and humor never ceases to amaze me. Her dialogue with these artists is both entertaining and stimulating, keeping me coming back for more. Kudos to Kelly, Medium and KQED! I look forward to staying in touch with EXACTLY.

So happy to have stumbled upon this treasure trove of interviews! Loving and savoring every single one.. so full of inspiration, insight and fun. Thank you Kelly Corrigan!

I paused today to enjoy John Cleese (jealous and yes, I do have a little crush on him and John Lithgow, whom is referenced and I agree completely with the statements that they are each other's split-aparts)! I could listen to Kelly talk all day (always love her refreshing candor) and I find this...Read full review »
Daph's iStuff via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/22/17
I really enjoy this podcast. The interviews take on big questions, encouraging listeners to step back look at the bigger picture. This is especially refreshing in a world where we are increasingly focusing on the tiniest of details. It is unfortunately very rare just now to find media that...Read full review »

Great, thought provoking stuff. Listening to this feels like hanging out with great friends! Looking forward to hearing more.

This is a fabulous show and endlessly listenable. More please!!!!

I'll be honest: I would read Kelly's grocery list if I had access to it. So the ability to listen to her speak to people she believes in while I'm staring at a ceiling wondering what it would be like to accomplish something in a day is pretty spectacular. I'd like to thank Kelly for adding this...Read full review »

Kelly is an engaging host who shares the right mix of humor and deep questions with her guests. My favorite interviews were with authors Roach, Lamott, and Atwood due to their unique insights, but all were wonderful. My only suggestion would be to work on improved sound--there were distracting...Read full review »

Finally a fun, engaging, human, smart, intuitive, contemporary, no pretense host of smart and relevant content. My whole family loves listening to Kelly - it's like having an engaging conversation around the fireplace with a dear friend.
KC and Sunshine Band via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/10/17
How does Kelly make these amazing people feel so much like old friends? I listen because it's funny, but I love it because it makes me think about things I know I should be thinking about.
Laats Bud via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/17
I loved all of these. They were uplifting and insightful. I only wish there were more of them. Please do more!
BiggestFanEver1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/17
Love the series! Kelly shares her love and enthusiasm for each of her guests with us. Super smart and a fun ways to get to know her guests as well as Kelly.
KD24smile via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/17
By which I mean fresh, hilarious, irreverent, and packing a serious punch.
PamJo86 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/08/17
Have been a fan of Kelly’s work for years. This is a great platform of her and her guests to connect in same the tone and voice that have made her books a hit. Exactly!
pdnaj via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/08/17
Always funny and insightful. Infinite range. Like listening to a good dinner conversation
Elrah49 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/08/17
I'm a podcast junkie, and this one is now at the top of my list. The interviews are insightful and fun, and I love the selection of guests. Can't wait for more!
Jendelafuente via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/07/17
I've always loved Kelly and how fantastic a storyteller she is. This whole series is a great look behind some of the simplest concepts. That episode with Matt Nathanson on optimism is giving me so much life.
shuggilippo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/04/17
I wish Kelly would shut up and let the interviewer talk. She keeps interrupting with dumb comments and saying "mmhm" which is very distracting. Can't listen.
Suzz886677 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/03/17
I was in today for hours and hours just binge listening to Kelly and the people she interviews, it's insightful and entertaining. Her questions are unique her voice is harmonic. Mindseed podcast Will be better as well as my life because I listened to exactly

Kelly does a fantastic job engaging with her guests. She keeps the conversation light while asking some tough questions that make you reflect on your own life. Her style is refreshing and she delivers a heart felt message.
CookieMom2014 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/17
Classic Kelly! Funny and intersting. I felt like we are sitting around the kitchen table just talking -- totally comfortable, funny, and always love Kelly's direct and honest questions!
JenniefromDC via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/17
Kelly rewards creativity, not only be championing it in her guests, but by inspiring it in the listener, no small feat, then giving it just the right kick of optimism. And I'm not just saying this because I want to be on her show, which I do. "Exactly" is exactly what I needed.
whitdztrix via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/01/17
It's no secret - among my friends - that I've always been Kelly Corrigan fan. Her ability to take 26 letters and manipulate them into some of the most beautiful sentences I've ever read is like no other author I know. But now I get to listen to her! And pretend I'm just sitting there with a cup...Read full review »

I was so fortunate to happen upon Kelly interviewing Anne Lamott - two of my favorite authors - on KQED. They are both inspiring, insightful and very real. Always telling it like it is. Just downloaded the others and can't wait to listen!
MHannah/71 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/01/17
I have been a big fan of Kelly Corrigan since The Middle Place. This series is a perfect outlet for her and her guests' wit, wisdom, insights and humor. These are conversations not interviews which make them far more interesting for the listener. Corrigan herself really listens to her diverse...Read full review »

The podcast is a perfect platform for Kelly Corrigan. Relatable, on-point conversations with compelling guests. The wit, humor, and honesty one "hears" in Kelly's writing is now available in bite-size podcast portions.
Cami in Houston via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/30/17
I am very lucky that I happened to flip the radio on when an episode of Exactly! came on. I really "shouldn't" like this show, and had no intention of tuning in. I usually go for information-dense science and policy programs, which this is not. I don't know almost any of the guests, and didn't...Read full review »

Fascinating conversations-relaxed, funny, down to earth and thought provoking. Heard one on KQED and went right out and downloaded the rest. I appreciate hearing both the people I know of and those new to me. A real pleasure.
strongfreebold via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/30/17
Listened to the optimism episode on the morning of the presidential inauguration and it was just the dose of joy, hope and inspiration I've needed. Yes, yes, yes! Impressively executed, bright, totally relatable interviews.
OptimistInTraining via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/20/17
Your casual, real voice feels like a cozy sweater! I feel empowered to be more creative and thoughtful after listening to you. More please!
