  • Uncomfortable

    There’s something about the way this guy talks to certain guests that feels really weird. Not a fan.

    The ads are literally in the middle of questions. What’s going on?

  • Love this podcast (but…)

    Really love Evan and his interview style (no changes needed there), but whoever is in charge of editing the podcast, a couple things:

    - The ads (especially the one that starts with “Great news!”) are sometimes literally in the middle of questions. Can you fix this?

    - This podcast has a much quieter sound than other podcasts on the app, so when you’re on the subway or walking in the city it’s hard to hear, even when it’s on the highest volume.

  • Amazing

    Every single interview I listen to, I catch myself thinking “what a really great question.” Evan is so good at what he does. Thoughtful, sharp, and genuinely curious in a way the conversations hit deeper than most podcasts. ❤️
