Was very hopeful but now disappointed
I was so excited when this podcast began, and loved the idea of being systematically led through foundational psychoanalytic concepts in relation to contemporary life, politics, and concerns, but it seems to have veered off track to the point where I find most episodes unlistenable. I keep returning hoping for it to regain its focus, but end up disappointed. The hosts are smart, likable, and committed, but the podcast feels unfocused and grasping, and relies too much on chats with a single generation of scholars a part of their inner circle, or at least that’s how it feels from the outside. I will keep trying but I am disappointed.

I’m pointing a...Read full review »

Complaining about saying the word “like” or “vocal fry” or being “pretentious” (which isn’t remotely true) is not...Read full review »
