So on the war Ukraine your guest went to lviv Ukraine. But on the war on Gaza your guest decided to go to Tel-Aviv?
This is like going to Moscow Russia in order to sympathise with the Ukrainian people and you did not question that. Pathetic.
Such an interesting podcast - the premise is excellent. However, the too loud, frenetic, not-quite background music drove me nuts. Please, please stop doing this!
I like Proxy. I think it's an interesting concept and well executed, and it helps guests and listeners. But the reason I haven't listened beyond a few episodes is mostly that Yowei keeps including clips of asking her husband to do things for the show.

Amazing talk across generations of activists. It was really valuable to hear about their attempts to turn off their aggro when it wasn’t really appropriate. Keep up the amazing work, Yowei! Thank you!
High quality Investigative storytelling. Engrossing and uplifting- thanks Yowei 😊
