Absolutely spot on series. Puts out great questions and allows for balanced interactions to begin answering them. I wish the eps were longer but that’s just because I’m sad when they’re over.

Love how the hosts balance nice banter with information in a smooth and thoughtful way :)

I thought the ideas were interesting and promising but was constantly distracted and irritated by the background music which was trivial synthesised space filler. I had to stop listening. I can’t give a fair rating because I couldn’t continue.

So after the debate debacle where ABC admitted to giving the Harris team sample questions ahead of time and agreeing to their demands without informing the Trump campaign-I am exhausted. And so is everyone else not involved in what y’all are calling journalism or reporting currently. We’ve...Read full review »

Responding to another reviewer: If you understand the truth of what’s REALLY going on, you will fully support Israel.

Masquerading as a liberal rag. Pro-Israel, justifying the murder of children. Do not support.

This show is amazing but they run ads for cryptocurrency which is awful. Lowers my opinion of the hosts who otherwise seem very down to earth
PatStonge via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/14/24
This is a show about big, important topics, told through the lens of a couple of people living in a bubble. It has that production style that makes you think you’re listening to a smart, well-produced podcast that’s going to be enlightening. It’s not though. It is shocking that so much content...Read full review »

It’s been a while since I found a podcast I enjoyed as much as this. It feels like the old episodes of This American Life to me (a podcast I once loved but has dropped off a little lately). The What Makes a Home episode was so inspiring to me as a single person who is figuring out how I might...Read full review »

This show has brought up so many questions and conversations for myself and with friends. It’s an excellent “how to” guide that I never knew was missing. Each season brings a new perspective such that I’m craving for the next drop. I hope it never gets cancelled!

It heled me clean all my dishes and get over my laziness
Binca Petreanu via Apple Podcasts · Romania · 03/08/24
Each series has struck me in such a different way. I share episodes with people all the time, and strike up conversations with people about topics from the show. I actually got so panicked at one point about the idea that this could go away some day that I did ask for a digital subscription to...Read full review »

I enjoy listening to this podcast because the topics are excellent and the guests they have on are top-notch. However, I find I’m continuously annoyed by the lack of perspective on the show. The “How to look busy” episode is a perfect example - the whole show assumed everyone had the ability to...Read full review »

My favorite have been season 1 and season 5. I can listen to these at work and reclaim the time that didn’t feel like mine anymore. Highly recommend!
EtherealGaia via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/18/24
Season 5 should have been launched as a new podcast, because this is presented as a totally new show. Love that it goes from the very practical to very philosophical, because it’s these philosophical questions that help put time, your life, your values, and your priorities all into perspective....Read full review »

Why does this podcast keep appearing in my queue? I have not subscribed, liked, or followed. I have reported this twice to Apple.
smaointe via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 12/28/23
I honestly love it, I've always thought school was just too much to think about because I have no idea what I would do, but it just lit up like a lightbulb, and led me to think about school in a different different way. The topics and conversations align so much with what I think already,...Read full review »
Yayyyyy!45738 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/25/23
Although it does not exactly give you a direction as to how to talk to people or how to live a happy life, the show has nudged me into a more positive and supportive way of thinking about life in general. Definitely a great show that I’d recommend to a friend.
Orchidy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/14/23
Keep it up!!
WimbledonWench via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/26/23
I can already tell this show belongs in the trash 🗑️
Jqjwodmeo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/21/23
I loved season 1 but season 2 is getting hard to listen to, i might have to completely skip this one. The main girl is extremely hard to listen to because she seems to very out of touch with reality. “i’ve always been in a relationship” congrats you need therapy.
Meliza silva via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/20/23
Great combination of education, journalism and personalization. I am really enjoying the information and look forward to using this to improve my daily interactions. A great way to present self-help info. without being preachy.
LZC-SA via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/12/23
I’ve only listened to the first episode of season 4 — I saw an ad for the season and came psyched for an interesting, research-based take on the complexities of socializing. Unfortunately the first episode did not deliver. Mostly anecdotes, producers’ personal takes on what they like and dislike...Read full review »
JustHereForTheCheese via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/04/23
It’s decent content. Clearly a lot of reviewers here have an unconscious (or conscious) bias against women, based on their comments. The show starts interesting conversations and doesn’t really give a Rx of “how to,” but that allows listeners to think on their own with the considerations from...Read full review »

Love all seasons of this podcast! It’s too bad that lots of reviewers don’t like the sound of women’s voices …
Micaela O via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/29/23
This podcast has nothing to do with “how to talk to people” and is just two girls chatting with remote psychology references. The loneliness episode has nothing to do with discussing / addressing loneliness and just takes the cheap route of blabber about white men and privilege?
ardilicious via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/27/23
Ugh
I do truly love the topics and conversations throughout this podcast. However, it’s been incredibly hard to listen to the gals on season 2. Dear lord those ladies need therapy.
Quirks23 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/22/23
The premise is good. The delivery is atrocious. Imagine being trapped in a college dorm with a bunch of freshman valley girl psych majors interweaving rudimentary snippets of their psychology 101 class with the banality of their lived experiences. Every other word is “like” and every vacant...Read full review »

Tdkyaw via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/19/23
Ugh
10 minutes in and I’m still waiting for some substance that addresses HOW to make or engage in small talk. Instead, lots of indefinite interrogative sentences I would call chitchat, lots of tics such as “I mean” and “like” and “y’a know.” Slang (“coming in hot”) not insight, instruction,...Read full review »
AmyVander via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/18/23
How not to go it alone, really resonated in my own personal journey. So many times I don’t want to bother others with my problems or fears, but you mention that despite being independent we all need companionship and help. It makes me feel like less of an outlier to hear you speak on this.
CFreddo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/18/23
This podcast should be titled “How to find, invent, and contrive situations where people have to respond to you”. Interesting how the 1 thing they never talk about is actually how to talk to people. The hosts assume that you are an interesting talker; that once you begin chatting with someone,...Read full review »
nemley via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/18/23
The idea for this podcast is a good one- and timely. Unfortunately, the speech in this podcast is no better than sitting at the local middle school listening to the average kid who has picked up on the worst speaking habits - “like”, vocal fry, up speech. It also misses some central points to...Read full review »
Itsmehi6789 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/16/23
On multiple occasions, condemns white, straight, men (why does this come up in “How to Talk to People/How to Make Friends” podcast?) for ruining the country (after fighting a war for their families, mind you) and makes a stab at “white men” for being TOO lonely when their wives die (do “black...Read full review »

This is the only podcast (out of my decade of listening to pods) that I’ve anxiously waited for new episodes to be released. I resonated with absolutely everything and I think it’s one of the most valuable podcasts to date due to the loneliness epidemic. I’m not sure if the show has been...Read full review »
ArianaRoach via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/26/23
I stumbled across this because I like to listen to people talk to help me sleep. This was not a sleeper conversation. “How to not go it alone” hit so hard that now I’m going to start from season one and see what else I’ve been missing. You rule. Thank you.
anotherandtryagaim via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/24/23
This podcast was so helpful in such a strange and unsettled time. It’s so important to get a pulse on the situation especially from a heart centered perspective!! Thank you so much. Fabulous work.
J.Bee.xox via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/24/23
Love this so much! So many great tips and useful information! Also makes you feel like you are not alone being an introvert and awkward!
Beezer727 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/22/23
I really had hope for this pod, but upon listening I found myself getting bored and annoyed even listening at 2x the speed. Especially on episode 3, I thought this was going to help me and it wasted my time.
Mylee r via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/21/23
Really love these episodes! Definitely bingeable. Lots of useful content. Well researched and produced
AaronRescueDad via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/19/23
I feel like a fly on the wall eavesdropping on conversations between brilliant minds and creative thinkers. One of my favourites!
f-laural via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/18/23
Overproduced and totally vapid, this is one of those cultural products so stupid it serves to condemn its entire milieu. Amazing that NPR has some segment of people convinced that dropping in a jangly xylophone transition means you’re being deeply intellectual.
Anonymou_s via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/09/23
Thank you for this podcast I’m an Introvert and it’s almost a hassle every time I want to talk to people This was helpful
