GioAy ,

I'm hooked!

I came across this podcast on Medium. I'm loving it so far! Heard 5 different episodes back to back. I just recently made a medium account and I feel like this is a audio version of medium. Interesting stories and poems. I feel like this podcast should be more popular! Amazing work

White privilege

No such thing. As I sat on an interview panel for a public company and saw hr get a hard-on for anyone that was not a white male, I realized that the whining in America is all for equality but in reality it’s to give a good job to someone who hasn’t earned it. Episode 154... last part was a bunch of bs from some lady who probably doesn’t pay any taxes.

Orisirisi ,

Comatose

Comatose is an extremely compelling few minutes of quizzical utterances that each week assures me, once again, that the best things in life are free.

Every aspect of it from the narration, to the featured guest, to the music and storytelling is always exactly the type of content that takes me to a better place.

A thousand kudos to the entire production team!
