On the fence
I continue listening to this because it helps me clarify my views. After several episodes the show begins to sound like aging, mostly white and privileged Gen X’ers complaining (in one way or another) about young people and their progressive ideas. As a person on the young end of Gen X I aim to embrace new ideas with some level of criticality- but also not become a bitter older person myself. This podcast shows me what not to do as I age. I believe there needs to be more criticism of the Left within the Left, and I’m glad for these voices in that regard. However the guests here are overwhelmingly white and cis-gendered. What if these same topics were covered with a more diverse set of guests? What would happen if there were some young guests? I think there need to be more conversations featuring BIPOC people.

More reviews of The Unspeakable Podcast
Another podcast that promises to add “nuance” while recycling talking points from the 1990s. Refuses to engage with the full range of complexities of modern life.

Great job on the show, Meghan. I especially episode on “gurus”. I’m detoxing from a couple of those myself, and your podcast is a helpful antidote.
