This podcast is always enjoyable. I like his voice, and of course I enjoy the interviews. I enjoyed this particularly possibly because I am almost 77 years old and I figured this out about 30 years ago. I made up my mind to be happy with whatever I had, and I am. My life is full! I read what I want, study what I want, interact with whom I want, see my great grandchildren regularly (maybe not quite enough😁), and it made me joyful to be affirmed by this man.

Easily my favorite podcast. The whole family of shows by Freakonomics is great, and People I (Mostly) Admire is The best.
Love it!

Steve is such a fun interviewer! He asks great questions and has a great way of looking at issues. The Q&A section is great as well.
Steve loves himself

I am finally tired of this show. Steve is smart but he is way too into himself. It always comes back to him. Unfortunately confirms many peoples priors about arrogant academics.
