Customer Reviews
Laugh to Keep from Crying but Learning Too
Can I say Prop for president! He is so concise and breaks it down so easy to understand. Highly recommend!
Found his stride
I tried this podcast when it first came out, having heard Prop on other podcasts and appreciating his take. It was meh and I thought it would fizzle. I was so wrong. Prop was just newbie and took some time to fine tune the format and feel the confidence.
I gave it another try and am glad I did. Prop makes it feel like a chat with a friend who is smarter than me. He breaks things down in ways that make sense and feels personal.
I am a middle aged white cis hetero mom who grow up on farm. I relate to Prop because he is real person who advocates treating people like people. He doesn’t Other anyone, even hicks like me.
Love the explanations
I came from cool people because prop made me laugh and they have a lovely voice. I didn’t know how fire this would be! Thanks for helping my job for crapitalism fly by faster
