Mighty Pursuit Podcast

Great guests and topics, but the way the host speaks is highly distracting. It’s hard to fully comprehend a thought when “like” is every other word.

I found this hard to follow. The host seems to try to outdo his guests with the name dropping of colleagues and experts. It’s exhausting. Please just get into the topic instead of pontificating on how well read you are on the topic.

I started listening bc I was attracted to some of the guests. The problem is, the host keeps inserting himself, and his pontifications, into the actual expert trying to talk. Instead of actually asking thoughtfully questions, so we can learn, he likes to ask a question and then go off on why he agrees or what he personally believes. He is not an expert, in anything. He’s not a medical doctor, psychiatrist, but he’ll have these highly learned people on and then go off on his opinion. He is also not articulate. He is not as bad as rich roll - who I had to - even with good guests - stop listening to entirely bc I couldn’t stand listening to 50% expert opinion, 50% rich roll mainsplaining his opinion, when his education is in law and running and swimming. I will not be able to continue to listen to this show if the host doesn’t learn to properly interview and LISTEN. If he doesn’t listen, we the listeners cannot listen either. And I will not be tuning in any longer.

You are creating much needed (and powerful) chats about mental health and root causes. In a world where the chemical imbalance narrative is sold, I love hearing conversations about the impact neglect, trauma, addiction, and more play in mental health.
