“I have been listening to this show from the beginning. Back then, I was working a job that was mental torture. I got permission to wear headphones and discovered Good Job, Brain!, and other fantastic podcasts (99% Invisible was recommended on the show, THANK YOU!) My life changed dramatically. Work became enjoyable.
Over the past decade+, this blessing of a podcast has been with me through the otherwise torture of my job at the time, maintaining the daily responsibilities of domestication, long commutes, nearly the entire duration of raising my now 13 year old (who likes to listen with me), grieving the death of my husband (has since been 5yrs), and many more.
I’ve listened to the entire catalogue too many times to count. The hosts feel like friends. There voices are very comforting. I actually don’t mind doing the dishes (no dishwasher), which I would otherwise despise, because I can listen to GJB.
I struggle with anxiety, which has intensified since the passing of my husband. For me, GJB is an incredibly effective and invaluable coping skill, for which I am grateful.
P.S. so bummed that Dana’s gone 😭”
