Guest Iyanla Showed Little Compassion When She Called People Lazy
I generally enjoy this podcast and maybe it’s not the forum for challenging guests. But I wanted one of the co-hosts to challenge guest Iyanla Vanzant’s view that one of the reasons people (in the USA I assume) don’t do the work of therapy is laziness. Ms Vanzant has been upheld by Oprah and entertainment media as a credible spiritual and mental health adviser. Her laziness comment lacked the awareness, empathy and skill one would expect from someone who is a counselor, but it does reflect the harshness of USA culture. More importantly, in a context where too many people are overworked, underpaid, not educated about the value of therapy and can’t afford healthcare, podcasts featuring counselors like Vanzant can be so helpful. It’s not the end of the world, but co-hosts, please think about your audience so that when you’re showing respect to your guest, you don’t forget to think about how their words may hurt your audience.

Just heard today 7/16/17 on AM JOY that this exists. ANYTHING JOY REID DOES... is hugely respected by me, even though I have not listened yet! Spread the word! Love the powerful bookends in MSNBC with Rachel and Joy bringing us tools of truth to defend and save our democracy. WRTW!!!

This podcast was absolutely insufferable just from having a spitefully bigoted and revolting host like Joy Reid. Joy, retire and go sit in a certain vacant Ft. Leavenworth cell the rest of your life.
