Fail Better with David Duchovny
Lemonada MediaTo be human is to fail – period. And not just to fail once, but to fail a lot. As the author Samuel Beckett said: “Fail again. Fail better.” This saying means a lot to me and my family – so much so that my daughter got a tattoo of it. Why are we, and so many others, so deeply concerned by failure? And if it’s something we all do so often, why are we so afraid of it – especially those of us here in... more

A fantastic series and I enjoy the easy flow of conversation; I particularly am attracted to how eloquent and articulate the opinions are expressed and explored. This specific episode however was highly anticipated but I’d have to say I was mildly disappointed. In comparison to the series, there was a bit of a wall with Anderson- alright, you don’t want to go there or go too deep, fine…but why then come onto the show if the bulk of it ended up being mostly a promotion for her products? I think i... more

I already have a crush you, David. I really didn’t need “David Duchovny Why Don’t You Love Me?” stuck in my head.
Aside from that, love the show, particularly your monotone voice.
Apple Podcasts5RosewaterTannehillUnited Statesa month ago - Diversity of guests brings me back each week!
Each time I listen to this podcast, I come away having learned something powerful from each of the guests. Duchovny is more than just a talented actor and writer, he’s clearly a deep thinker and his recent guests prove that. After the first few episodes being celebrity-centric, I never expected to hear such enlightening convos with Gabor Mate, Mary Trump, Jack Halberstam, and Dr. Vivek Murthy. Duchovny asks thoughtful questions and is becoming a better podcast interviewer with each episode. I’m ... more
