  • Stilted Interviews

    I always turn off the radio when this show comes on. The host just robotically goes through a list of prepared questions. She rarely reacts to the guest’s responses nor does she try to dive deeper into the topic. It’s just one question after the next, which makes her seem disinterested and hard to listen to.

  • A reprieve from politics

    Alison is plugged into NYC culture. Listening keeps me informed on current writing, theater, museums, food and all that is delicious in NYC. She has a great historical perspective as she has been involved in New York City culture for decades. My thanks to Alison and to the staff of All of It.

  • Too Music Centric

    This show lacks the deep literary and socio-political discussion that its predecessor had. The diversity of topics is frustratingly thin, and it is too music-centric, with too many live performances. While I love music, it’s so subjective, and it doesn’t work for a show which purports to be about “All of It.” This used to be a mid-day mainstay for me. Not anymore. WNYC should create another show to replace the void that Lopate’s show left.

  • Transactional and disrespectful

    It seems like this podcast is not interpersonal at all and it just seems very transactional towards the people who are on the podcast with this host but also towards the people who call in or even text. It just seems like anything said by people within the podcast other than the host is being used for content without any sort of acknowledgment of what they had said. It’s very weird, off-putting, and honestly disrespectful towards the people who show extreme vulnerability.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Reckoning with the Fallout of China's 'One Child' Policy
Q: What impact did the author have on the families involved when the project expanded?
The reporting led to emotional, sometimes painful interactions, with Barbara acknowledging the trauma caused to the families as she deepened the investigation and pursued conversations across continents.
Reckoning with the Fallout of China's 'One Child' Policy
Q: How did the adoption stories intersect with Barbara's reporting?
The stories of adoptees like Esther illustrate the shift from abandonment to abandonment under duress, and later attempts to reconnect years later, showing the human consequences of the policy beyond statistics.
Reckoning with the Fallout of China's 'One Child' Policy
Q: What background does Barbara Demick share about the one-child policy and its enforcement?
Barbara explains how the policy emerged amid modernization, with stiff penalties in rural areas where monitors and officials enforced it aggressively, including house demolitions and confiscation of property, setting the stage for abductions and coerced births.
The 25th Anniversary of 'Is This It' from The Strokes
Q: How do cycles in music history help us understand the Strokes' place in the broader landscape?
Hyden suggests that every 10-15 years a new band signals a cultural revolution; the Strokes embodied a peak moment in New York rock, with Taylor Swift representing a more monolithic modern era, illustrating how cycles evolve rather than repeat.
The 25th Anniversary of 'Is This It' from The Strokes
Q: Why has the album had such lasting influence, and how does it compare to later bands inspired by the Strokes?
Hyden argues that while many bands mimicked the Strokes' sound, the group's balance of mystique and integrity prevented a simple replication, allowing later acts to draw inspiration without fully eclipsing the Strokes' original appeal.
