Sarah is a Goddamned Treasure

I’ve been listening since the before days with Michael (who I adore) but I feel like show has really come into its own with Sarah at the helm. Whether we’re around the fire at summer camp, in a closet in Wisconsin, or curled up with some tea I always look forward to reflecting, recontextualising, and interrogating my preconceived notions. 🧡

Love the direction the show has gone

Came for the deep dive debunking, stayed for the social history, loving the more conversational style!

Sarah you’re doing amazing sweetie

So I’ve seen some reviews on here criticising how the show has gone since Michael left and I don’t really think this is fair – I think this is a response to the vibe of the show of course changing with Michael’s absence but that was always going to happen because the people really make the podcast not the subject matter, I think Sarah has done really great at keeping the ship steering on a similar course although yes I would agree that the “hard facts” style of the older episodes has changed to more of a feelings based thing in recent ones but I don’t know if that’s a bad thing I think that’s just a preference! and I don’t agree with the reviews that seem to imply that there is a lack of facts checking or inaccuracies I don’t think that’s fair– Sarah has been at the forefront from the start of the current cultural moment we’re having around maligned women and we can’t forget that it’s her work that is the groundwork for this podcast I think Michael has even said that on multiple occasions! So yeah Sarah keep up the good work!
