Customer Reviews
What a wild ride
I started randomly listening to episodes as I stumbled on this show and I have no idea what it’s about but it’s amazing. One episode was reader mail where they just answer any question anyone writes them on any topic…?? 10/10. Then I picked what I thought would be an innocuous podcast on trees to fall asleep to and it turned out to be one of the most nuanced conversations I’ve heard on the Israel/Palestine conflict?? Great show, full of surprises, have been binging since.
What a hoot!
