Extreme Bias, interesting topics
The life kit podcast displays extreme bias, yet covers interesting topics. Most of the advice given is not practical- such as the advice to make better coffee being to “take daily notes on your coffee making process” as if anyone would dedicate a notebook and title it ‘daily coffee log, experience and emotions’. The bias is extremely left wing, without considering their responsibility to present all facts if they are going to be offering holistic advice or wisdom. An example of their extremist bias is the birth control episode- where they won’t use the term “woman” at all while describing women’s birth control- instead saying “uterus”. While I appreciate and value their attempts at inclusivity, it seems to be diluting and confusing their content (although I admit I am not a gender expert). In the same birth control episode, they were also intent on breaking down birth control marketing, seeing as it oftentimes depicts heterosexual women. From a business and common sense perspective, it makes complete sense that the advertising would be geared towards heterosexual women, seeing as that is their target market segment. In general, the undertone of this podcast seems to be slightly angry, as if there is some moral duty to point out every flaw, while not exploring every explanation nor alternative. Overall, I think the core of this podcast is great, who doesn’t need advice? However, I don’t think this is advice-grade content and I would love to see them take a more holistic approach, display less bias and keep up with the great topics!

Hey Life Kit producers and potential listeners! This is an excellent podcast. Thank you for making it. I’d like to suggest an episode idea as well. How to break habits: like the little stuff (sleeping in or being on your phone or coffee) to the big stuff (alcohol or losing your temper). Thanks!
