Customer Reviews
Love It!!!
This podcast never disappoints! There are very few podcasts that I listen to regularly. This is one. It's funny, thought-provoking and I enjoy hearing the different points of view. Always a joy!
I'm Outraged!
That feeling when the podcast in your ears is indistinguishable from the voices in your head and you try to join the conversation and several noise-canceled minutes later you realize an entire subway car is staring at you but also nodding their heads in agreement. Would listen again.
Witty, thoughtful, fun!
I love a good podcast! This one is well informed, witty, thoughtful conversation on the topics of the day from three very different perspectives, with lots of loving debate and friendly challenges that nudge the worldview of each a bit further. Give it a listen!
