Customer Reviews
The best
I’ve been listening to this podcast for a very long time. I love her story telling and content. This is one podcast I look forward to every week and I do listen again to ones I’ve heard before.
Skin Deep
Navigating, showcasing and underscoring the intricate treacherous complexities of a term paper read aloud over and over in a high school classroom. Where’d the storytelling go?
It’s fine.
I like the subject, but sometimes it just sounds like a professor who is bored with their own lecture. Dry reading of a script, complete with this-is-where-my-joke-goes jokes, like it’s a lecture she’s read 500 times.
