  • These people do not care about children

    Disgusting. I was excited to listen but the first episode is Israeli propaganda. People who support genocide do not care about children. Don’t waste your time with this repulsive podcast.

  • Genuine deep Reggio discussions

    High quality, experienced guests. Deep dive into specific topics. Highly enriching listening.

    Not like the broad sweep given to Reggio in most podcasts.

    First if it’s kind I’ve seen in Podcasts. So glad I stumbled upon this. Now I can listen to something genuinely engaging and thought-provoking in the car (in Asia!).
