In an alternative universe Meghan Daum garners the interest of young men and women, the world’s problems are solved, and Kardashians work at TJ Max. That’s a world I would like to live in.

So interesting - I actually took notes. Twenge speaks with authority, is backed by data & she’s no nonsense.

Excellent work with Eli Lake

Really enjoyed the epistemological episode about college campuses. Not sure general public realizes how dangerous it is to have so many kids being indoctrinated into racist leftwing ideology… Eli Lake was great episode too As was one with Rob

I listen to this pod to hear from interesting people who aren’t being interviewed everywhere else.

Love the guests and topics discussed!

The July 26 episode with Dr Puri was incredible. Cancer took my sister and my dad and everything talked about here was very familiar. It’s a topic that needs a lot more attention and discussion. Thank you!

It’s a great pod. If you’re reading this review, you’ll likely like it 🌄

I normally love this show, but wow, the latest episode makes some assertions about borderline personality disorder that are totally wrong (eg claiming that “borderline” is because it’s between a “full blown mental illness” and a personality disorder. That’s just not true. I don’t want to listen...Read full review »

Almost single-handedly preventing our culture from collapsing entirely into a bland, humorless soup of political correctness.

Informative and excellent podcast on the right side!!

It's not enough to put up with ads. Now if you want "bonus content," you have to pay. That interview with lionel shriver was so gross. I'm unsubscribing.Read full review »

Mind-expanding conversations. The only thing I would wish for is civil discourse with guests who depart further from the host’s general POV. But I realize that, in this current climate, that may be impossible.
Myezecky via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/03/23
Smart provocative conversations:)
J_Live215 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/13/23
I followed an interesting guest on Intelligence Squared to this podcast and her episode was actually pretty good. Then a second and third episode revealed a lot more of the host. Her version of nuance is just generic Twitter reply guy center right politics that dismisses reasonable opinions...Read full review »

I find Meghan a clear and thoughtful interviewer. Foremost, I applaud her guest selection. Within her theme, she ranges far and wide. Otherwise, she keeps the conversation focused. Yet, she also allows her guests to fully express and support their views. I appreciate her contribution to the...Read full review »

Meghan asks great questions and is curious. This is a regular podcast in my queue of heterodox podcasts.

Meghan’s conversations are always illuminating and thought provoking.
Greg White LA via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/27/23
Always thought provoking and informative.
jJc056 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/27/23
Sometimes I agree with the opinions of the guests and other times I have many points of disagreement, but I always find the interviews interesting and thought-provoking. Meghan is a great listener and approaches complicated topics with curiosity and good-faith skepticism.

I love this podcast, such great conversations
larkspur38 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/18/23
I’ve only listened to the episode w Jenera Nuremberg and was grateful to do so. Grateful for the conversation and bringing another view to the conversation of neurodiversity. As a neurodivergent parent of neurodivergent kids, I want to add to the conversation about Autistic children. There is...Read full review »

This is a woman with a serious intellect. Open. Nuanced. Sharp. Farsighted. Dismiss her if you’re a knee jerk on either the right or left. But take note: she’s the writer/podcaster Cassandra of our times.
LMecury via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/24/23
I love Meghan’s manner of building and presenting this show. She is hyper intelligent, sharp and humble. Her questions are clear, probing and relevant. This is my first experience but I feel I know her as an intellectual already. This is really important work. Thank you

Just listened to, “Is Wellness Making Us Sick”. Fantastic conversation. Thank you for sharing your donut story. I still can’t eat sandwiches because my mom said meat and bread don’t digest well together. Forever listener.
AnneRenee84 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/28/22
Longtime reader and admirer of Meghan -since ‘My Misspent Youth’, love everything about her, excellent podcast.
joseph_conrad via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/14/22
…but the host interrupts a LOT. Makes the guests hard to follow. Still, a good listen.

Colin Wright is amazing. One of the earliest scientists to point out the incongruity of the trans paradigm.
Gnome chopper via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/05/22
Great show…Meghan gives thoughtful, well researched interviews and has a variety of fascinating guests.
pwcunningham via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/04/22
I don’t feel qualified to write a review. All I know is Meghan is incredibly knowledgeable and insightful. I always find her and her podcasts fascinating. Hi learn so much. Love her “voice “. Thanks to the Bill Maher show, otherwise I wouldn’t know who Meghan is.
Johnnymac64 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/12/22
As fear and eggshell- walking become the norm elsewhere, the Unspeakable has become a go-to sources for unpredictable, frank and relevant conversation that is not obliged to toe any particular party line.
Ssclary via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/07/22
I like the range of topics and the banter on topic. I learn a lot about the current culture. Often my views are expressed and I have no place to express those views myself in my world. Keep up the good work Meghan. See you in September.
Ruralife via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/30/22
This is hands down my favorite podcast because Daum insists on really thinking things through. I always look forward to having a new episode drop. The guests and conversations are great, no matter what the topic is.

I listened to this civil discussion after being promised content of respectful and insightful debate over gun violence in America. Jon was very respectful but I missed hearing any insightful content from him. Same tired “arguments” answering the question why we need “AR type” weapons in non...Read full review »

I recommend this to anyone who enjoys informative ,low key and nuanced discussions. Meghan has a great mind while also down to earth. And she has interesting guests. She's welcome in my playlist anytime. Thanks Meghan!Read full review »

Generally well thought-out, well produced conversations on mostly serious issues. I guess it’s hard for heterodox podcasters to find guests of consequence when competing for them with other podcasts in the same domain. I wish Meghan luck and hope she doesn’t often have to settle for people like...Read full review »

Thank you Meghan—for having courage to facilitate difficult conversations about the ideas and concepts shaping our culture. A breath of fresh air to all of us becoming stifled in our collective bubbles.
mabellareese via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/31/22
Refreshing and thought provoking. Thank you!

Must have conversations! Thank you for having them.

I often feel like there is a secret society of progressive feminist women out there who are grumbling about the lack of nuance, the fear of offending and the knee-jerk victimhood of the left. Once in a while we bump into each other at a dinner party or school function and it is like finding out...Read full review »

This podcast is worth listening to only when guests like Dan Savage push back against the host.
MBurzynski via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/01/22
I love this podcast. Thank you Meghan for asking good, honest, hard questions. I always learn something.

If you are looking for someone who does not allow herself to be locked in to a box of ideas, without necessarily sharing your own, you will probably like this.
Dead Write via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/23/22
Meghan is a great interviewer and has introduced me to so many new people and ideas through this podcast. I loved the interviews with Buck Angel and Lori Gottlieb in particular. Thanks Meghan for having and sharing these conversations!

Absolutely love Meghan Daum. As a lifelong liberal increasingly frustrated with gender ideology, progressive posturing and woke virtue signaling, I came for the culture war coverage but am so pleased to stay for much much more. It is so easy to become hardened and cynical in today’s environment...Read full review »

Everyone should be listening to this podcast. Meghan and her guests do a great job of making sense of what’s going on in our culture. It’s for those who are plugged in (the “highly online”) and also for laypeople—those who don’t even know where to begin when it comes to parsing out the nuances of...Read full review »

Mostly, I listen to books on tape but once I found this podcast, I have been spending my listening hours catching up! She is left-of-center and a feminist, like me, but completely against what is called “cancel culture” or “woke” culture (again, like me). She doesn’t particularly like those terms...Read full review »
