I absolutely believe in marriage, but I also believe that marriage is inaccurately marketed as a one-stop solution for all of life’s problems. It’s no wonder why, as of 2024, about 43% of American marriages are said to end in divorce: we’re brainwash... more

I recently broke up with my boyfriend. Though extremely painful, I knew it was the correct decision - but I also wondered in my lower moments if, at 31, I was “too old” to start over again. I’ve never looked or felt better, but there’s cultural shame... more

Such a good podcast normally, but I miss hearing people’s experiences. The SOLO episodes are getting to be kind of grating and longwinded.
I resonate so much with the experiences that both Ali and her sharers provide us the opportunity to hear. I’ve learned a lot about myself simply by how much I relate to Ali and her listeners. This is a podcast that makes you feel SEEN! Instantly loved it.
Season five let’s go bebe. Love this podcast!!!!!
So unfiltered & raw.
The vulnerability and honesty is surely the most important part of this show. However, the quality of the delivery is also something that is so rare and highly appreciated. Thank you Ali 💕
This podcast is heart opening, mind expanding, and deeply inspiring. Ali Weiss is funny, insightful, and extremely caring. I feel like I receive therapy from listening to this podcast. Hearing people confess the things they think are “too much” or “unacceptable” is deeply liberating. This podcast has the kind of balls rarely seen in the surface level world we exist in. Season 5 is going to give me everything I wanted: confessions from the host!
