- Keeping it shallow
So nice that we can displace millions of workers with AI so that Kara can look up the names of monster trucks for her son. Thanks for keeping it shallow, Kara.

I love this podcast and the episode about Dolly Parton. I think Caitlin, Kara , and everyone else should listen to the Dolly Parton’s America podcast series. It’s extraordinary!
Apple Podcasts5harmony451United Statesa month ago - Please Kara, stop.
Please Kara, just stop being so cringey. I absolutely love the topics covered on this podcast and love Scott Galloway but it’s becoming increasingly harder to listen to it. Every episode Kara name drops celebrities, reminds us over and over that she texts these Tech CEOs what idiots they are, and that she receives messages from god about Dolly Parton’s death. Like we get it, you are important. I just would love her to stop being so full of herself so I can go back to enjoying this podcast.

Scott can’t come back fast enough. Subs have been uniformly unqualified to do a podcast. Cubans inarticulate ums and ahs were startling. President Marbles?
