Bring Back The Depth
I miss when this show was unashamedly wonky. I didn’t love every single take back then, but it forced me to think more deeply about issues in ways recent episodes just don’t. I was particularly irked by the episode about fast fashion. I think the average Vox listener understands the basic problems with modern clothes production — we’re looking for the next level of analysis. I felt a bit insulted by the lack of depth of the episode’s coverage as someone who cares particularly about this issue. Also, leave the host and her vocal fry alone. Those comments come off as quite misogynistic. I have never in my life been distracted by someone’s vocal fry, if I even notice it at all.

Really excellent podcast for all of the weird policy nerds who revel in the weeds. I've been a fan of Ezra's for a long time, but it's also awesome hearing from Matt and Sarah. Could only be better to hear from Dylan Matthews as well!Read full review »
