So good!
Advice you can use that goes deep. Very helpful!
Mostly ads
The first five minutes can be skipped. It’s just teasers that are immediately repeated after the ads. Just skip the first five minutes and the last several minutes where they repeat what was said during the middle five minutes. And then skip all the ads at the end where they advertise other shows that are mostly advertisements.
Infantilizing podcast
Of all the podcasts that NPR has canceled, why couldn’t this be one of them? It grinds my gears me every time the host feigns surprise at “leaning” everyday common knowledge. Almost the same way that a parent might act surprised when their toddler learns a new word. This show is offensively condescending. NPR, give your audience a tiny bit more credit. We’re not quite as stupid/incompetent as you clearly make us out to be. Worse than merely proving to be useless, I find this podcasts leaving a bad taste in my mouth about NPR. The show straight up puts me in a bad mood. Why does it have such low expectations of us? Do you like being spoken to like you’re stupid? Neither do we.
