Each interview feels so relevant and relatable. The time efficiency episode changed how I see my work, time scarcity, and my time. I loved the adoption episode too. I feel whole and nourished after hearing each episode. It’s the kind of podcast you tell your partner about before you go to bed.

Listened to the “How to breathe like a navy seal” episode- and immediately had an incredible improvement in lasting longer than ever underwater while scuba diving 🙏❤️💪 Can’t thank y’all enough for making that episode and sharing the psychological aspect of performing better underwater Highly...Read full review »

It’s just got too many ads to enjoy. By far the most ads than any other podcast I subscribe to.
Squanchhy via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/31/23
The show is fine but their sponsors are so blatantly industry propaganda. The ads about EVs are incredibly misleading and feel incredibly forced. “I love driving my zero tail pipe emission vehicle!” - who the heck talks like this?? Corporate focus group messaging with surgical precision to avoid...Read full review »

In this episode dude clearly says that it would be incredibly difficult to go back to his current job if he quit. Totally ignored him, and said it wouldn’t be that hard.

A full 6 minutes of ads in the first 10 minutes of show is insane. Do better.

Please interview "Paiul and Sasha" from Community News with Paul and Sasha and find out how they do it. Make us laugh on our darkest days and not with mean humor, but with smart and relatable humor. Thanks.Read full review »

This podcast was great in the past. When it becomes more political it looses its uniqueness.

I think most of America can relate to this topic. Great episode.

The interviewer and guests on the episode on interracial dating didn’t display an understanding of how people of African descent built the world, including the wealth of the entire Western Hemisphere and Europe, according to renowned experts like Prof Howard French (Columbia), Prof Marlene Daut...Read full review »

We absolutely loved the episode starring Hélène Biandudi Hofer. She’s like a breathe of fresh air. Very positive and intelligent. ❤️

As I am a Girl Boner Radio listener (host August McLaughlin), I wanted to hear the interview with August and her co-author, Jamila Dawson regarding the recent book, With Pleasure: Managing Trauma Triggers for More Vibrant Sex and Relationship. The episode on sexual consent with McLaughlin and...Read full review »

This podcast is so thoughtfully put together. I love the way they blend interviews with related research, all with practical tips in mind. Amanda is a fabulous host… I find her voice and kindness so encouraging.
August JoMc via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/19/22
Unnecessary long, a lot of rambling no real structure. There are valuable life lessons being thaught but there’s no getting to the point in a concise moment every episode it sounds like banter and questions that flow into each other. It’s hard to keep track of the pilar points, also for episodes...Read full review »
Happy-Hop game :p via Apple Podcasts · Netherlands · 04/15/22
Regarding the episode about what happens when a dog and a family don’t work out - I found it irresponsible to share the story of behavioral euthanasia without the caveat that the first step should always be investigating whether another home would allow the dog to thrive. Maybe the guest did this...Read full review »

Amanda displays unbearably irritating vocal fry in the prerecorded segments of her podcast. It’s really a shame, because the content is good.
Nellygoat via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/22
Content of questionable validity now after the change. Listened to all the original episodes but will not be returning. Miss you Charles Duhig!
Austin Tx professor via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/10/22
Amanda’s voice of curiosity and reflection are like a dose of vitamins. Her written work and podcast voice are always informed, honest with a focus on the characters. She is gifted and I can never get enough of her.
dcurbanexperiment via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/08/22
This is a good concept for a podcast! I burn through podcasts like crazy at work so I’m always happy to find a cool new one. Unfortunately, after listening to about 5 episodes I think I’m done. I appreciate the work that goes into each in terms of finding people to interview for the show, but...Read full review »

Never give up your 401K employer match! It’s like earning 100% interest. Other than that, most of the advice is too general to be useful, and appears to feature guests who are trying to sell their own books or podcasts. It is reasonably entertaining, but not a real how to about anything.
smikgtre via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/28/21
I really like the show now hosted by Amanda Ripley. Regardless of topic, I enjoy listening. And always learn or am reminded of something. I find This kind of human story telling and problem solving so refreshing.

They are yours for life. Like a child.
Henripug via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/07/21
This is an insane amount of ads. Audio quality is inconsistent quality. Content meanders.

The episode How to embrace your anti-vax family helps me a lot in these difficult times. Heartfelt thanks from Germany!!!
Sciurus Bavaria via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 11/26/21
I’ve listened to several of the recent shows and Amanda has been tackling interesting topics that I find quite relevant. Her rapport with the guests is like sitting down for coffee with a friend to exchange good advice. I especially liked the show about coaching youth sports!
dbirdla via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/24/21
What I love about this show is how Amanda helps me see a problem from multiple perspectives. Each podcast has awesome interviews uncovering multiple moving parts and providing a menu of solutions. The best part is the bright light she brings into the picture. After I listen I feel like I have...Read full review »

Lots of wisdom in relatively short episodes. The episodes hosted by David Epstein are especially pleasant.
pah2105 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/18/21
Updated- I miss David! His voice, questions and flow made the podcast so great. It's hard to get into the new female host. It's not the same. A great podcast, I look forward to the weekly episodes and enjoy listening to it. The show is very helpful and insightful!Read full review »
Mel C5 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/17/21
Listening to the latest episodes I notice more superfluous chitchat between the host and guests than before with Charles & his guests & his use of time. I find this irritating in that with all this ‘extra’ chatter, the objective of the podcast is not moved forward or at least not...Read full review »

I do love this show and find it so insightful and helpful. 5 stars for content. But please, if I have to hear one more bush’s baked beans add about the “barbecue-niverse” I am going to lose it. Pretty please, consider going with less main-stream (corporate) adds and switch to some that actually...Read full review »

I usually don’t have attention span or interest in listening to a podcast episode that’s longer than 15 min. But this show is awesome. I love every episode; they are funny, yet not light, easy to listen to, never boring, and just make you feel good. Definitely my top podcast show..!! Well done...Read full review »
RoseSusu via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 06/18/21
6/2 update - another episode with Google search top 10 depth, so unoriginal, nothing worth hearing. Sad. The show has gotten tame and predictable since Charles left as host, David isn’t making the show creative enough, the guests have gotten lame and the advice is predictable. Need to get better...
Milk4me7 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/02/21
30 min episode yet 10 min are ads...No thank you!!

I like this podcast, but the ads are excessive!! Ruins this podcast.
frissjan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/17/21
Almost every episode, there’s something I can use in my life. Even if I didn’t expect to learn something new. So, thank you! 😊
Lizzy Writer via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 04/10/21
The show is very well done but wish each episode was an hour at least for some more in depth discussion of each topic
KTMAC60 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/22/21
Excellent show. Looking forward to trying the techniques and will definitely a check out the book.

Glad to be wandering around with you exploring some interesting ideas. A joy. Good company. Thank you.

Lately the number of adds seems to have gone up dramatically. No fun to listen anymore. Especialy since I live in Europe and the adds to not apply to me
Valinholland via Apple Podcasts · Netherlands · 03/12/21
REALLY NEEDED THAT QUIET THE CHATTER IN YOUR HEAD EPISODE YESTERDAY THANK YOU. All the other episodes I’ve listened to have been compelling and helpful, too. Thoughtfully delivered human stories with immediately useful DIY steps, minus the corniness of most self-help content.
weespesh via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/11/21
Content is super interesting....when you actually get to it. About a quarter of the episode is ads. As a fellow podcaster I understand the need to monetize your product but this was beyond distracting, which is a real shame. In a 32 minute episode I lost track at 7 ads. Unfortunately I won’t be a...Read full review »

Learn something new every episode. Nothing wrong with the new guy, but I do miss Charles soothing voice. :-)
Will Mackley via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/09/21
David Epstein has insight, empathy and a profound ability to draw out great content from his guests. I thoroughly engrossed. This is time well spent.
