“I found the podcast by searching “Jerry Saltz”. I was not disappointed. The interview was really great. I really appreciated how the interviewers let Jerry speak at length. Jerry is such a special, unique person and it drives me crazy when interviewers interrupt him and step all over his words....”Read full review »

“Found this podcast as I was browsing, and it was my lucky day! I’ve enjoyed every episode so far. The hosts voices have enjoyable pace, tones and pacing, and I enjoy listening to the meaning of what they are saying as it relates to their lives and the topics they are covering. Thank you!!”

“How to talk to anyone. This episode was super dull. It’s the only episode I listened to, but honestly - let’s talk about the weather and, using the bathroom break to end conversation at a party. Not exactly ground breaking.”

“This is petty, I’m aware. But your intro music is so LOUD AND BEEEP BEEP and ANNOYING! Lol. Please find something else. It sounds so cheap. Anyway overall, your content is sweet. Just wanted to put in my 2 cents.”

“I like this podcast for the most part, but...
1. I miss Melissa. There is no chemistry with these temp hosts.
2. Some of the science-y episodes seem... pseudoscience-y. I kind of think it’s a little irresponsible to state that breathing through your nose will reduce your chance of getting Corona...”Read full review »

“When you are listening to learn, the interruptions are very irritating. Stay on task guys. And hearing a person laugh at their own comments (every comment) is tough.
These guys are talking to hear themselves.
No opportunity to learn from this podcast.”

“Occasionally interesting, but much like Lifehacker in general, the podcast’s advice is functionally useless if you’re not already making $50k+. Really wish they would diversify their editorial position and try speaking to a broader audience.”
