Hidden Brain

I listen to a lot of podcasts, and this is often among the most thoughtful of the bunch.

This has been one of my favorite podcasts but recently I’ve noticed that many of the episodes are just reruns of the old episodes and there is no indication in the episode note nor in the audio saying it’s a rerun. I hope the producers are more considerate of listeners’ time by letting them known whether any episode is a rerun.

I love this show. Always thought-provoking, excellent reporting, production, fact-checking, etc. BUT...it really bothers me that even at this level of excellence, you cannot take the time to say, “Please.” E.g. you often SAY to your subjects, “Tell is how...,” “Explain why...,” “Give us some examples of..,” and so on. Would it be so bad to say “please” once in a while at least? Too old school?

Thank you for every episode. I cannot miss any. Great job! Thank you for your professionalism and commitment to do it well every time.
