Customer Reviews
Practical action for audience
A wonderful foray into uncomfortable topics. You can feel Anna take a deep breathe before asking the interviewee to reveal another, deeper level of their emotions, motivations or fears. I particularly love that this podcast uses its platform to create resources by and for listeners with similar experiences.
Always a good listen
Anna is an excellent host who brings the best out of her guests. As a long time listener of this podcast, I keep coming back for the conversations about grief, connection, and human empathy.
Does not live up to the name
I believe another reviewer suggested to just rename the show “Interviews with Anna Sale” and I totally agree. The show no longer lives up to its name. The episodes are not thought-provoking, deep, or impactful. I still follow the show in hopes of a good episode being released but that only happens once in a blue moon, unfortunately. I think they should completely rethink their content (their episodes when they first started out were great) or being in people that can do the show some justice. It’s been pretty dry for a while now. I hope that they can bring back the depth that they used to have.
