American Hysteria

I found this show through You’re Wrong About, which is also amazing. The thoughtful and thorough research Chelsea does on this topic that is so dear to me (MA in American folk studies) entertains, empathizes, and puts a spooky and beautiful spotlight on what our culture cares about. Chelsea’s sense of humor as well as their deep empathy for humans in all their stupidity and glory is what makes this show the best.

Exactly as the title states. The content is my cup of tea, but I cannot stand the cadence of the podcaster. I have listened to her on other podcasts, and she sounds normal. I DONT GET IT. Please fix it, and I guarantee you’d have so many more subscribers, as this seems to be a common complaint.

I see I’m not alone. The material covered in this podcast is great. The cadence with which Chelsea talks is unbearable. I haven’t noticed this issue when Chelsea is a guest on other pods, just solo pods. Please stop with the unnatural cadence; unfortunately unsubscribing because of it.

Listened for 10 minutes and heard more than three factually inaccurate (and easily searchable) errors. Fun idea, but needs a fact checker.
