I love the early episodes of the podcast, where it was about medicine and humanity. The podcast took a political turn at the end of season 2. That killed the podcast for me. If the podcast returns to its roots and goes back to medicine and humanity. I’ll be right back listening to it.

In fairness, I’ve only listened to season 4. Beautifully done. I dream about telling a complex human story with such clarity and understanding. A profound flip switch flipped for me. I’m headed to Season 1 and feeling grateful.

I loved this podcast before the aftereffect series of episodes, but somehow my appreciation for the podcast has grown more. Wonderful, human-centered journalism.

As the sister of an autistic young adult, I am completely blown away and impressed by the quality and care that the producers are putting into this story. Keep it up.

This is one of my top 5 favorite podcasts. (And I listen to a LOT of podcasts.) Wendy is hilarious and the scripted style keeps her on track. I learn something new every time I listen to an episode!!

Amazing podcast. Sad that the last show came out in May 2017... can we please have some more shows?

I have loved every episode I’ve listened to, and find myself thinking about them long after the fact.

A wide range of subject matter begining with the host's personal story and continuing into varied territory such a doctor's abuse of painkillers, the truth about calorie counts, and trans-gender kids.Read full review »

I recently came across Only Human, and I was delighted to see that there were so many episodes I could "catch up " on. The topics of stories and interviews are varied but all of extreme interest. All are told and conducted with sensitivity and professionalism. This podcast offers humor,...Read full review »

I work in behavioral health research and this is takes a personal glimpse into why we do what we do with out all the science verbage and makes it accessable for the masses while teaching professionals a thing or two.

I love listening to podcasts that feature people making connections - and what connects us better than the trials and tribulations of the human body. Was bummed when I ran out of episodes to listen to.

I listen to podcasts while at work and this is a good one when my anxiety level is high. All of the people who speak have such soothing voices; it helps me relax. I will get some laughs, and learn some things, all while getting my work done. I hope they continue with some episodes.

I love the the real life stories of people battling some very mysterious illnesses. I also enjoy that each episode they read and play comments from listeners on the previous episode. It's great to see how the stories touch their lives.Read full review »

It's that good, and relatable, and diverse. I love the wide range of topics but all still within our crazy bodies. Mary Harris is an amazing, intuitive and curious host. My only wish is there would be episodes more often😊😊 but she is a busy mom so I can understand how that goes, the days roll...Read full review »

This is one of the very best I've heard. I only discovered it recently and have been binge-listening to earlier episodes. Never disappoints. I agree with others who have said that Mary Harris is excellent. Great production and research team too.Read full review »

Just finished listening to the August 2nd podcast on transgender children and the doctors and nurses who treat them. It was an amazing, heartbreaking piece about brave teenagers and their parents in an intolerant world which turns bathroom choice into a vicious political issue. Mary...Read full review »

Really interesting, well produced podcast. Relatively short reports but they manage to say a lot about the topics chosen. Highly recommended.

Wow. I am blown away by Only Human. I think it should be "required listening" for all incoming freshman - it teaches empathy, kind questioning, and highlights so many of the dilemmas in life. I don't know too many books that do the same. Outstanding.Read full review »
