“I just found this podcast recently and listened to an episode from 2017. I see no more episodes published since November 2017. Have you completely stopped publishing?”

“The subjects presented are great and stretch a diversity of topics.
Main Question: Why haven't new episodes been posted since December 2016? I can only find the latest episodes on the website. Also, some old episodes don't play. Why is this?”

“I love this podcast and listen to every one. Great intellectual discussions about the issues of our times without the interference of emotional manipulation. So why have no new episodes been uploaded since the election? I have a hard time believing that it's not a coincidence. There are two new...”Read full review »

“Great content, but the sound recording quality of the new host is so terrible I can't listen anymore! Would love to have the host invest in a nicer mic and/or pre-amp to make this enjoyable once again!”

“I've enjoyed most of the episodes. There hosts are good interviewers with thought provoking questions. The only annoyance is brief theme music that interrupts the conversation identifying the podcast several times an hour. Get rid of that. There no need to announce the name of podcast.

“Bo Bennet does a great job with this podcast - honest, friendly, intelligent. He’s got some great guests too. This podcast really makes you think about your own position on things and exposes the muddy thinking we hear around us all the time. Keep up the great work!”

“This podcast is disappointing. I was hoping I have found a humanist podcast able to get beyond religion enough to stop putting any energy into it, even just by scoffing at it (and the people involved in it). But judging by recent episodes (except one good one with an exceptional guest who refused...”Read full review »

I listen to this show for content, and would be extremely annoyed if the host was a giggling airhead or if it contained immature cracks all the time. These...”Read full review »

“The podcasts are almost always interesting. Given the dry nature of the material, they do well. I wish they had livelier folks talking, though. These are cerebral people and maybe they should have a cocktail or two before the shows. Loosen up a little. I'm serious. At least have someone...”Read full review »

“To quote a non-humanist book, this is truly a voice in the wilderness -- clear, refreshing and inspiring. Great guests, news from around the world, and a humanist/secular/rational perspective on a variety of topics. The tone is light; no religion-bashing, no preaching, no arrogance. I recommend...”Read full review »

The downside, for me, is that the show relies on short, Sesame Street-style...”Read full review »
