PJ Vogt is this generation’s cooler, edgier, scrappier Ira Glass. This show is constantly introducing me to new worlds, characters, and concepts I feel better for knowing by the end of the episode. Polished scripts, compelling airtight narratives, and a cinematic quality with a consistent style that few podcasts can pull off.

I love listening to this show every week! I find that it’s very stimulating and also informative. Great show!

Such unexpected story ideas, which if I read the titles out of the context of this podcast I’d often think “who cares, I’ll pass!”. But instead I’m always pulled in by the stellar guests, PJs talent for asking smart (often funny) questions, and a story with so many unexpected turns that I can rarely not finish listening in one session. And PJs laugh. It brightens my day no matter what and I missed it when he left Reply All.

PJ and team have an exceptional ability to tell engaging stories with unabashed enthusiasm and genuine interest that can’t help but drag me along for the ride, and the latest episode is a phenomenal example. It makes me feel far more skeptical of the things I thought I knew, and brings me along for another/new way of looking at things. Unlike some podcasts I listen to (and enjoy), this one always leaves me feeling a little more compassionate and starry-eyed about…the world. Keep up the amazing work Search Engine!
