A great niche pod for people into local government
GovLove brings on guests who are doing some of the most creative and important work in government (at any level). The show exudes Leslie Knope-level enthusiasm about local government and the people who power it. I appreciate that episodes have no set length and that the interviews give insights about the guests' biography and career path. I wish the hosts would ask their goofy off-topic questions at the end of the interview, rather than at the beginning as a warm-up; as it is, I often skip ahead to get to the meat of conversation. Listeners should know upfront that the audio is sometimes subpar and the episodes appear to receive little to no editing (lots of uhs and ums), but you quickly get over those minor issues because the conversations are always thoughtful and the subject matter is hard to find anywhere else. It's also worth noting that these folks are prolific (new episodes every week!), so chances are you'll find at least a few relevant/interesting episodes each month. If you work in or with local government or cover it as a journalist, you ought to be subscribing to GovLove.Read full review »

More reviews of GovLove
Listening to impassioned local government employees talk about the places they live, work and play is a great way to learn from them and get inspiration on those days when the world doesn't seem so kind. Thanks GovLove for keeping it real and providing some knowledge mixed with the feels.Read full review »

I’m not sure what I love more, the in-depth discussions that provide real insights and useful, tangible actions or the breadth of topics that demonstrate the diversity of how local gov impacts lives. Or just that the format is so fun and accessible. Regardless, it is a valuable resource.

I haven’t seen a podcast like this. Can’t wait to hear more of these stories that are not often told.
