“Was hoping for something that genuinely tried to engage in a discussion of ethics. What I got is three people offering very shallow practical tips on how to get through your life.

“Very little chemistry between the hosts, and no deep discussion of the questions. They don't even quite seem to share a working definition of what it means to be ethical. If they could find a way to have a little fun and/or go a little deeper, it would make for a better podcast.”Read full review »
