“Citing a study about how Israeli women deal with the “stress of conflict” right now — without any mention of the constant stress of the horrors of the genocide being committed against the innocent men, women, and children of Palestine — is extremely tone deaf at best and disgustingly...”Read full review »

“Shankar seems like a compassionate individual, which is why I can’t understand how he’s okay with guests — like today’s neuroscientist — referring to animal experiments (in this case monkeys). The episode was on “resparkling” — hardly an important enough reason to warrant experimenting on...”Read full review »

“Hello,
As you may have noticed I ranked this podcast at only 3 stars. Which has nothing to do with the context of the episodes, those are great.
But rather with the fact that you are trying to get the best of both worlds at the cost of your audience. You charge for the podcast, but same time you...”Read full review »

“I like your show, but I believe some of your guests opinions are not valid. Specifically your guest Ara Norezayan’s view in regards to religion seemed to be biased by his own experiences. Most times certain types of religions were forced on people by rulers of the time. Sometimes there were...”Read full review »

“The first half of each episode makes me roll my eyes. It’s usually filled with info, ideas, or opinions that I’ve heard or thought about a million times and I’m like “this is a waste of time, I’m not hearing anything new.” It just feels superficial, and sometimes even ostensible. But then, around...”Read full review »

“Love Keyes shaming those not in supportive relationships. Really unhelpful. I suppose he also suggests ‘bootstraps’ and ‘pull ones self up by’ said straps. not a revelatory conclusion, and unhelpful to those in the throes of the problem”

It portrays it as those who are deeply involved in politics opposed to those who are not. MAGA is the movement of discord and this peacemaker who hates...”Read full review »

“I’d rank it 4.5 stars but I will round it up. I like how the episodes aren’t stretched way too long and get to the point.
I find sometimes the episodes lack specificity that viewers may be looking for based on the title. Great content, otherwise!”
