  • 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

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Go To on "It's Going To Be OK" with Nora McInerny
Q: What inspired the Go To segment and its format?
The segment aims to share small, universally accessible 'OK' moments and insights that help people feel connected and hopeful, often through personal stories.
Deep Dive with Jeff Kinney on Creative Constraints
Q: How did you sustain motivation during the long development period for Wimpy Kid?
He leaned on a personal North Star, Benjamin Franklin's “well done is better than well said” mindset, stayed focused on doing the work rather than chasing quick validation, and relied on a deep belief in the project.
Deep Dive with Jeff Kinney on Creative Constraints
Q: What were the early reactions you got from potential publishers or agents to your cartoon text combo?
Kinney describes many rejections and the sense that his early work wasn't going to land, but he kept at it, developing the concept in journals and gradually refining it into Diary of a Wimpy Kid over eight years.
Deep Dive with Ed Helms on Creative Flow
Q: Can you think of an example of feedback that was invaluable to the way you moved forward?
Ed describes preferring feedback during the making process from trusted colleagues, and sharing a vulnerability about asking for help in refining lines, which helped him shift performances in real-time and felt like a trusted collaboration rather than post-mortem critique.
Deep Dive with Allison Jones on Creative Hiccups
Q: Can you describe how your early casting experiences shaped your approach today?
Allison describes learning by watching countless improv nights, memorizing actors, and then trusting a genuine, warm, and funny presence in the room as the core signal.
