    I enjoyed the audiobook, so I thought I’d like the podcast more than reading Substack. I adore Valarie Kaur, so I tried to give it a listen. Only made it 2/3 of the way because I couldn’t take the constant interruptions. Let the woman speak!

  • Meditative quality

    I started listening after reading the book and making my husband listen to it. My life is truly different because of the book and the podcast. I am so grateful to hear men being real men with feelings, emotions, and love for humanity. I am not religious but hold so much space for all the beautiful philosophical talks that Rainn and his guests give. Live long and prosper.

  • Thanks Rainn

    Rainn does a great job at remaining open minded and holding space for his guests. He creates a non-judgmental atmosphere to deep dive on some really important issues. It is not an echo chamber type of podcast, and it will challenge you to think beyond yourself and your beliefs. Overall, incredible podcast.

  • Thank you

    I realize that you are left leaning, however thank you for showing compassion re Charlie Kirk’s murder. I am a Christian conservative and have never felt or expressed joy when someone I disagree with has experienced hardship, injury or death. Instead of love, sadly our Nation is in very short supply of empathy towards our neighbors. BTW, I appreciate your acting including in Dark Winds, keep it up sir.
