- Smart, intriguing, sensitive
May be my new favorite Slate podcast. I’m a long time Slate Plus subscriber, regular listener to about six Slate podcasts, and boy do I love this one. The current episode on “erotic transference “ in therapy made me sit down and marvel at the vulnerability and courage of the guests, all nimbly guided by the empathic, gentle hand of Anna Sale. It’s a keeper for me. Give it a try.

United States2 months ago - Hated the slate crossover money episode
Disappointed in the money episode with a guy who had no idea how expensive childcare is- he’s a financial advisor and isn’t familiar with childcare costs?? He had no clue why parents stay home with kids rather than paying for childcare. Not an expert and not educated
Do you have any new episodes or just repeats??? You ask us to subscribe to listen to… episodes we have already heard????

Please stop with the interviews with “experts” and celebrities trying to shill their new book, project, etc. I miss the episodes where just normal people were interviewed.
Apple Podcasts2Occasional iPhone user 123United States4 months ago - wow
This show is probably, hands-down, the whitest podcast I have ever heard. The amount of bland white people that have been interviewed is astonishing. The producers or the host not have any friends of color? Particularly Black people?
