  • Love and grief

    Kelly, I have listened to your podcast for years and always enjoy them immensely… But this Sunday’s “thanks for being here”-about why did Kaitlin die in February? Really resonated with me… I just happen to have a sister who also died in February -28 years ago… and a beautiful three-year-old grandson who looks at the high school picture of my sister and asks amazing questions …It is so fascinating to me-just how similar these podcasts are to our everyday lives-it absolutely “takes my breath away ... more

  • The one podcast companion for the desert island

    Kelly and her Wonders will go with me if I ever have to go to that imagined desert island where we can only take a few treasured things from civilization. She is so deeply human and always curious. I am so grateful Kate Bowler introduced me to this podcast.

  • Loved the episode w/3 moms

    I loved the episodes when you and your mom friends were talking about parenting some of the best episodes in years. I hope you have more like this. More relational. Less academic and I say this as an academic. I like the conversations you have with ordinary people the best. Sometimes the pod gets a little too theoretical and isn’t practical or relatable. The intellectual humility (while important) felt a little overdone. I like the stories and specific examples versus theoretical concepts. I a... more

Deep Dive with Sarah Vowell on Access
Q: What drew you to the National Archives for this story?

Deep Dive with Sarah Vowell on Access
Q: Was it easy to get Pamela Wright to talk?
Pamela Wright agreed to talk with some effort, but the press office often impeded interviews, requiring email conversations and persistence to reach her and others.
Deep Dive with Michael Lewis on Devotion
Q: Speaking of what's in the book, you picked Christopher Mark. Tell us why you picked him and tell us the story of him.
Lewis describes how Mark's engineering approach to preventing coal mine roof collapses, coupled with his personal history and rebellion against traditional paths, became the compelling centerpiece for the chapter, illustrating competence in dangerous work and how problem-solving improves lives.
Deep Dive with Michael Lewis on Devotion
Q: So before we dive into Who Is Government, I want to know what your theory is about why that Vanity Fair article was so popular and what your theory is about why it didn't spawn follow on research and reporting.
Lewis suggests the country hungers for a civics lesson that isn't boring, and that long-form storytelling is needed to reveal how government actually works, beyond politics. He notes the difficulty of telling such stories quickly and the structural challenges in journalism that limit follow-up work.
