- Wine
The episode about wine was one of the worst episodes! They never really answered the question “how to get into wine.” It was more of a question from someone who really didn’t care about wine and was annoyingly glib the entire time. Mike Pesca did not direct the conversation well at all. I miss Charles Duhigg!!

Very important episode about a harrowing issue as technology evolves that makes predatory behavior towards the elderly increasingly easier
Apple Podcasts5JacquelineLapineUnited States5 months ago - Pesca is a Master of the Form
I’m a huge Mike Pesca fan, and How To! has been a great addition to his work. I’ve enjoyed every episode so far. Pesca brings the same sharp interviewing skills, curiosity, and humor that make his other projects so good, and he manages to turn practical questions into insightful conversations. It’s informative, entertaining, and consistently well done. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys smart, thoughtful interviews.

Longtime listener won’t be continuing to listen with Pesca at the helm. Appreciated the thoughtful and measured past hosts very much but this new style isn’t for me.
