Customer Reviews
A How-To Guide for Morality
It’s that simple. This show is a guide on how to be a better person. I came in at the “socialise everything” end of the spectrum. I’m a disability, abuse, and a-spectrums advocate who can’t get enough of volunteering. Yet every week gives me great ideas for how I can do more.
Love the folklore and the casual vibe
I could listen to Margaret read folk stories all day I’d love a spin off podcast
Who would give this 1 star?
It’s hard to believe that anyone who is in to Cool Zone content wouldn’t love this podcast. It is well researched, Margaret is a phenomenal host, it has great guests, and the stories are super interesting. I’m sorry it took me so long to check it out. Much love to everyone involved!
