Love the wide range of topics, the seriousness and consideration given to the guests yet no hesitation to challenge respectfully. Russ is always prepared

Thanks for this podcast, Russ. I could have listened for another hour. As a Christian, in my 70s, I especially wanted to hear about Glenn’s struggles as a Christian now, at age 75. I only really fully understood the gospel about 15 years ago (30 years into my walk, knowing Christ— been a Christian 45 years now). The gospel, the good news is, we are lousy at best. We look to Christ for our perfection and rest in His righteousness, by our faith in Him. So glad to hear about your life, Glenn. I looked: your book is available today!! From a Wyoming listener 😉

Oddly inconsiderate of the alternative perspective. Great topics and interesting guests, but more interested in voicing his own views (not a particularly good interviewer) and incredibly biased. Still worth the listen.

I listen to this podcast for the fantastic guests, but the almost laughable lack of any concrete understanding of real people in real situations on the part of the host makes it painful to listen to. Facile back-of-the envelope math based on averages and ‘should mean’ theory-based conclusions combine with willful ignorance about options and sources of capital and connections for most people make this podcast seem stuck in a mystical neo-liberal world that bears little resemblance to reality. Perfect for people who want to remain comfortable in their comfortable libertarian myth bubble!
