“In a Vox podcast system clogged with mostly politics and news, this was a breath of fresh air. I enjoy the other podcasts, but this was the one thoughtful pop culture podcast I’ve found. Great guests, fascinating insights, and a once weekly respite from the dreadful news and politics of our time....”Read full review »

“Todd VanDerWerff's fatal flaw as a writer, beyond awkward construction and a constant need for a second draft, has always been his insistence and reliance on the first person. He can't keep himself out of his reviews and articles and he's never told me anything about himself I wanted...”Read full review »

“Todd seems so involved in hitting his prewritten list of questions, he doesn’t seem to be listening to the answers his guests give.”

“VanDerWerff is a really fantastic interviewer, and each episode is a great dig into the minds of the subject. I like how the show tries to get deeper than just a typical profile on an actor or writer or whatever. It’s just so well organized”

“In the “Narnia was not up to code” episode, the host followed up almost all of Lev Grossman’s responses by saying, “Right, right” or “Yeah, yeah”, ruining an otherwise good interview.”

“The subjects are quite interesting, but the interviewer is awful. Instead of "Yea, Yea" and "For Sure", try pausing and moving on to your next question. Maybe study Terri Gross or your colleague Ezra Klein's interview style.
Great people, annoying interview style.”Read full review »

“What I love about this podcast is that the interview choices are driven by resumé, not by fame. As the title suggests, Todd chooses pop-culture interviews with people doing new and original things, largely without regard to whether they are household names. He also makes sure the interviews are...”Read full review »

“I just listend to the Interview with Matt Carter. It was excellent. I apprecated the dive into a potentially touchy topic that I think many are contemplating from some angle or another right now. Growing up going to church every Sunday in the 70s and 80s and comparing my experience to what is...”Read full review »

I Think You’re Interesting introduces you to new and exciting pop culture. It’s well-produced and enjoyable. Everything you could want from a...”Read full review »

“In general, I like ITYI. I do, however, wish the interviews were more conversational. I'm not always convinced the host actually thinks the guests are interesting based on the way he responds to their answers.”Read full review »

“I really enjoy the interviews, but the host has a super annoying verbal pause, that I just can't unhear. Anytime the guest is speaking, almost every sentence, the host will make this uuuhg noise (think start of a monkey impersonation). It's really distracting. Also, while the overall...”Read full review »

“There are a lot of culture podcasts out there, but this one sits apart. The interviews so far are fascinating, genuine, and insightful and really shine a light on how and why shows are made the way they are, and how that differs from the way they should be made.”
