“I love Radio headspace and all the hosts and meditation teachers.
I am not going to single out but one host always has a vocal fry whenever they host an episode.
I wonder if this can be improved..”

“A 6–8 minute podcast, with two minutes of ads at the beginning? Additionally, it totally disregards podcasting standards, with no chapter notes or information pages.
How hard would it be to have a 15 second introduction, listing the sponsors, and then include links to the sponsors in the show...”Read full review »

“This podcast used to be great but headspace grew too big and too greedy. 3 minutes of ads and 2 minutes of barely insightful content. What a waste.”

“Y’all I have loved and greatly appreciated this podcast for years. The episodes being short make it easily digestible and a good way to help me start my day on the right foot. I am so thankful for everyone at Headspace and all of the guests they bring in. BUT.. lately it’s been a whole 3+ minutes...”Read full review »

“Used to be incredible but now the ads take up almost half of each episode. Worse, the episodes that are available within the actual headspace app are not user friendly and don’t let you binge listen like you can do in Apple Podcasts. It’s a lose-lose and event bough it used to be hugely important...”Read full review »

“Just a thought: When you replay episodes from years ago, label them “Re:Minders” or something so we know it’s a repeat. We can go into it reflecting instead of surprised or what have you. Thank you!

“I love the actual content of its short podcast episodes. But too much of the beginning it taken up by commercials. I just heard the latest episode and there were only 2 commercials but the reading of the first commercial (for Quince) was done so slowly, it ate up way too much time.

“I love this podcast so much. I found it long after it had started and would just listen to one episode after the other. I hate that I can’t do that now because of the ads. The ads take up just as much time as the podcast. It feels like a sellout move in my opinion.”

“I used to listen every day. It was great bite-sized mindfulness content and I loved starting my daily commute with it. Then I had to skip past 2min+ of ads. Now I don’t listen anymore. Need to balance the commerce with the content or it starts to feel like a cash grab.”
