Keep it up. This is a must listen podcast for me and I’m always so happy to see a new episode pop up on my feed!
Listening to Proxy is like having a deep tissue massage on my emotions. A real treat and extremely cathartic.
This podcast reminds me of the “golden age” of podcasts of Gimlet and narrative storytelling—when I first fell in love with podcasts. It’s informative, relatable, stays on topic, but also entertaining!
The host is incredible and I really love the sound engineering and music. I just listed to “Zakiya Used to be Fun” and kept finding myself relating so deeply.
Thank you for the wonderful work you are doing!
A deeply thoughtful and well-edited storytelling podcast. So grateful to the team for making it
