Customer Reviews
Not bad and maybe not as liberal as NPR usually is
I like it. It’s short, sweet, and I can stay up-to-date on psychological, biological, home Ec, sci and other topics.
You have some more conservative / libertarian type listeners, so please cut back on all the “carbon footprint” garbage. I’m not a wasteful person, nor are most of the people I know. But news flash: humans aren’t powerful enough to destroy the earth God gave us as our temporary abode.
Disappointed
I used to love this podcast but I find myself skipping episodes more often than not. They talk about common sense topics and are too liberal at times
Great podcast
Highly recommend to subscribe to all and then pick and choose the topics that are of interest. There’s so many that are worth the listen.
