  • Out of the Gate!!

    This is exactly the kind of podcast my socially anxious little brain needs, and I am stoked for more episodes to drop. Practical do’s and don’ts for social situations that make it all feel less scary 😱 I’m hoping for an episode to come soon about job/school interviews. I just applied to dental school, and I know that’s going to be the worst part.

  • Already a banger

    Always happy to support sequoia and Mike! So happy that she’s doing another pod. Although, I may selfishly ask, is there any chance we may see Kim as a guest in the future? Ngl, I miss her. Either way, this pod is already great and I’m happy to have these two up in my ear holes again.

  • Obsessed!!! 🤩

    As an avid fan of Fanatical Fics, I was so excited to listen to Sequoia (and mikes) new podcast. So far, I’ve listened to the new episode twice, and checked for another almost 20 times, even though I know the next won’t drop for over a week. Thank you both for creating such good content! I definitely recommend you give this a listen- 5 stars!!! 🙃

  • You should listen to this

    I am familiar with both the hosts from their respective podcasts so I expected to be entertained, but as a perpetually late introvert I also found it extremely helpful. Give it a listen.
