  • James Lindsey

    James, take a breath. Mia and Stella said about 20 words the whole podcast. Stella even at point had to say, " stay on the tracks".

    Look, James is very intelligent but he hurts his cause by talking in chapters.

  • Extremely disappointed by the unchallenged nonsense of the recent guest

    I have listened to this show a long time and I can’t express how surprised and disappointed I am by this most recent episode with Katey Faust, a woman with very extreme views on gay marriage and same-sex families.

Stella asked for data a couple of times and the woman provided sweeping generalizations (as in, none), and there was no push back. Neither host brough... more

  • Mixed bag

    As others have said, the guests are a bit hit and miss, sometimes brilliant (Abigail Shrier; Marcus Evans), sometimes a bit off the wall (Dutton). Like most podcasts, the presenters are assuming increasingly that their audience are engaging with the video, rather than *listening* as they do other things. They don’t introduce the guest and say who’s on the ‘panel’ for each episode, assuming one has read the notes. This is a mistake, in my view. I want to see the topic and will listen often on tha... more
