One of My Absolute Favorites
The world is better because this podcast is in it! LSMY has made me laugh, cry, think, and grow. Morgan and Yarah are so insightful, generous, compassionate, and fun; and their guests are interesting, open, and vulnerable. It’s like getting to know and love your neighbor in podcast form. Thank you for this gift of a listen!
I laugh. I cry. I learn.
Listening to LSMY is like eavesdropping on a conversation between the most interesting people you know. Each episode balances the levity of a chat with friends with the insight and discovery that accompanies people coming together across lines of difference. Every guest brings a new perspective that encourages me to think beyond my own, and Morgan and Yarah ground the discussion with humor, curiosity and empathy. One of my favorite podcasts out there.
