These podcasts are pure gold. The podcast respects the busy listener. The hosts operate from a position of informed and curious humility, endearing qualities that invite the listener into the discussion. It has a wonderful organizational shape in terms of the weekly schedule, regular theme days, length of episode, and variety of content. The hosts do an excellent job of finding interesting people, prompting them with good questions, and letting them speak. The hosts are accomplished, respected, and authentic researchers in their own right, however they check these accomplishments at the door, preferring instead to make the guests and the listeners the stars of the show. The listener can rest comfortably in knowing that these humble experts are not there to waste time, not there to promote themselves, and only there to make the listening experience worthwhile.
