“These stories are always great to listen to. Sometimes, they touch you in a deep and meaningful way. More than a few have floated around in my head for days after I listened to it. This is worth your time.”

“This podcast gives me an opportunity to suppress the clamor of worldly events for a few minutes so I can re-visit my principles and priorities. I'd prefer a slightly shorter episode with a minimum of introduction so I can focus on the author's essay. It still deserves a 5-star rating; check it...”Read full review »

“I enjoy listeing to this podcast, and especially like the older ones. I have one complaint and I really hope someone reads this. Dan Gediman sometimes has a nose whistle and it's really off-putting.”

“The 50's broadcasts are superb. On the other hand, the modern commentary and self-promotion are ham-handed and off-putting. Unfortunately, the latter consumes more than half of each podcast.”

“I actually have to do my final essay for an AP class on this project for NPR. It would be amazing if I won an award for it, extra credit is always good. I believe that Stephen Colbert is more then Opera. By more I mean better, and by better I mean less real, and by less real i mean more real. It...”Read full review »

“These fluffy stories are not up to the higher standards I expect from NPR. We are already surrounded by psudo news and it is unfortunate that NPR has jumped on the bandwagen.”

“The past few weeks - months actually - at work have been frustratingly hard. We are going through a difficult stage with layoffs/reorg, and I have to admit I have been very negative in thinking and performance. I was leaving the train station and caught this NPR segment of "This I Believe" . It...”Read full review »

“In English (still in High School), we are supposed to write an essay based on our personal beliefs.These can range from the signifigance of sleeping in on Saturdays, to the reason we wake up in the morning. Our teacher uses these essays to give us inspiration, to show us what we can write about,...”Read full review »

“Being NPR, these short pieces aren't going to be about anyone's mainstream religion as that would go against the NPR rule of ignoring (or mocking) the beliefs of most americans while treating foreign religiosn (such as Islam) with more tolerance and evenhandedness than they deserve. These pieces...”Read full review »

Sometimes it is just some simple about life, and sometimes it is something very complex and serious. I never know who I might hear next and what they might be...”Read full review »

“I discovered This I Believe in my Freshmen Composition class at Xavier. My professor wanted the class to write our own essay as our final paper. Seemingly easy enough, right? Wrong. It proved to be much harder than I expected, but I found inspiration in the essays that others had submitted to...”Read full review »

“Oral history is such a lost art - or at least it is in the mainstream. Granted, NPR is not as mainstream as CBS but i feel that this effort will reach many more listeners than other efforts that simply don't have the power to bring it to the masses. Anything from NPR is quality but this one is...”Read full review »
