Great stories
Love Kevin’s way of interview. Also a loyal listener of Hard Fork
Excellent listening
I listened to this on my walks, it was so good I didn’t even realize I had walked 5 k. Give great insight on how we fall down rabbit holes.
So many different angles on this subject
I like the vastly different interviews they led for this podcast, it was informative and fascinating.
