Julian one of the most privileged people on the planet wants to pull the ladder of success up behind him/zir all in the name of ‘equity’ not equality. Disappointing

This is arguably my favorite podcast, maybe ever. Secretary Castro’s authenticity and genuine love for our great, but woefully imperfect nation is palpable. His interview style is laid back and conversational, yet he’s able to probe such that the topic is covered with excellent depth and breadth....Read full review »

Just great podcast mechanics when it comes to cadence, length, and balance of each episode. Love seeing Julian being able to raise his profile through this. Sawyer is a natural and doing great work!

Always enjoy listening to Julian Castro and his guests discuss today’s political topics.
WLMH via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/05/21
This show is great for anyone wanting substantive news updates without the anxiety-ridden vibes of today’s news cycle. It’s a good mix of going in depth on issues and being substantive without being oppressive or heavy handed. It’s really cool to get to hear this all directly from someone who’s...Read full review »

Love the banter, the deep dive on fresh news, and the great guests. Thoughtful analysis on the country’s most pressing topics.

Such an informative conversation but also funny and entertaining. I like the insider POV and excited to tune in each week. Thanks for coming back. Your voice is so critical!

So glad this show is back!!

Season 1 was great and I’m laughing thru ep 1 (and outraged and informed) already. Who knew Julián had jokes
usahozierfan2019 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/13/21
Best news show out there
StarHDK via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/13/21
Yes! So excited to listen again, and love the new format.

The all-star lineup of activist/experts for each of these topics is so impressive and so helpful in understanding such a wide variety of important issues.
Mom in NYC via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/07/21
This season has such a great format. If the sneak preview show about all the crazy stuff happening in Texas is any indication, this is going to be my go-to place for getting news every week once season 2 drops.

Learning so much from this series!
JHole12321 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/12/21
Such an important, thoughtful podcast
razz67890 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/05/21
Like his campaign, Julián Castro’s podcast is focused on the stories that don’t always grab headlines, but affect Americans from all walks of life every day.
5.5hole via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/20/21
Great and relevant conversations for our times. Love the variety of guests, especially regular people. Plus no intrusive commercials. Let’s hope Julian Castro runs for office again.
MBCal85 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/21
Really like the guests and conversations, but can not stand the music; PLEASE LOSE THE MUSIC it doesn’t highlight, but distracts and annoys.
marthsteve via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/29/21
Very informative! Thank you for educating us! San Antonio represent!
TX Cathy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/21
Julián is a Latino voice we need from this generation and it’s great to hear him talk about his perspective on these very specific problems that transcends racial barriers and just talks about people.
@jwmtalley via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/28/20
Fantasy episode that sheds light on the struggles of Latinos in America. I live in AZ, so hearing about Martin and his deceased wife Tomasina’s fight for better wages and health benefits was both sad and eye opening. More episodes like this are needed to educate this country on the real plights...Read full review »

I love the real stories & how complex policy and politics in America is. These are everyday problems we deal with and they are so complex.

Riveting, the epitome of compassion and pure humanity.
Cubby1951 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/31/20
Every episode has been nothing less than excellent.
ramos1215 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/19/20
This is so heartfelt and insightful. I’ve loved hearing people share personal stories situated within a bigger structural context. Thank you Julián Castro for being so thoughtful in the way you structure these interviews
FrEmDawn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/08/20
Great conversations interrupted by twinkling, annoying scene setting music. Please, please no more cue the tears music!

So uplifting!The end of this episode nearly brought me to joyous tears!

Julian is the most thoughtful, caring, down to earth, all around good human. I can’t wait to hear what comes next!

I loved this episode especially food taking you back. Thank you Eric Serna for all you do. Thanks Julian ;)
Rebeka49 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/24/20
Excellent podcast. Share your reality. Speak truth to power. Listen and seek to understand. Only when we listen, acknowledge and decide to act to heal those in need, pain and who have been marginalized and forgotten will we truly grow and flourish as a nation.
SA Horned Frog via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/19/20
These first few episodes are really high quality; touching; and authentic. It’s a marvelous and deep dive look into Secretary Castro’s life in his own voice and through his eyes. Can’t recommend enough!
Lorraine_in_TX via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/18/20
I was introduced to this podcast via getting curious with Jonathan van ness and after only two episodes, I’m NOT disappointed. I love hearing people’s stories, especially ones of perseverance and activism. Can’t wait to hear more!
CaitT2205 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/18/20
I know I’m not exactly objective because I stan Julián and supported his presidential run but this podcast is exceptional. I appreciate the lens bu which he views the United States. He is so much more positive about things than I am so listening to him talk about issues and policies in an...Read full review »

This show is shockingly good. I was expecting a basic interview show with politicians and celebrities - which I was fine with because I love Julian. But it’s so much more than that! It’s actually really sincere, engaging and more about storytelling. The first episode was great, but I was totally...Read full review »

ShaunRVA via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/17/20
This was a great introduction to understanding the lens by which Julián Castro sees things. I enjoyed listening to the bond between the brothers and hear them speak of the influence of their mother. Can’t wait to learn more about America!

I love Julian Castro. He cares!!!
DaniYogaTT via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/16/20
Thank you Julian for this! I met you on your first visit to East Los Angeles while campaigning for president. I approached you and asked that you show the world the truth about us (Chicanos). You have and continue to do so... THANK YOU!!!

Enjoy the podcast and looking forward to future podcast. Listening to this first episode, it took me back to my younger days growing up in San Antonio. I’m a twin as well and the Castro Brothers speak about growing up it brought back many memories. Discovering that my brother & I have a...Read full review »

I listened to the first episode where he spoke with his mom and brother and the conversation was so refreshing and inspiring about their upbringing and their struggles to go from the ghetto on the west side of SA TX to Ivy League educations from Stanford and Harvard law.
