Hey Human. I'm Susan Ruth. I have interesting, enlightening, in-depth conversations with people from all walks. Sometimes I agree with them, sometimes their point of view couldn't be further from mine. The world expands and contracts in experience and conversation. I find people fascinating and that every human has a story.

Customer Reviews
Celebrating the human condition
I just started listening and WOW what a gift we have in this podcast. Susan is a kind, compassionate and curious interviewer who brings us so many inner lives. It's like eavesdropping on the most fascinating conversations except you don't have to keep it on the DL.
A topic for every mood
Hey Human’s range of timeless topics never disappoint. Susan’s interviewing style and long-form conversations offer a refreshing contrast to the quick-fix, snap judgement world we so often live in now. I’m forever impressed with Susan’s superb ability to listen deeply. The meaningful questions that evolve over the span of each episode lead to conversations that leave me thinking and feeling inspired.
Fabulous Episode
Susan’s recent episode with Sabir Shapiro was brilliant. It was basically two intellectuals having an interesting conversation. Sabir & Susan navigated the discussion on the cultural challenges being black & becoming a successful author, screenplay writer & artist manager in today’s America. It was engaging, informative, and actually very educational. Concluding the episode, Sabir offered up a very thought provoking poem that he wrote - well worth the listen. Congratulations to you both & hope that there is apart two soon.
