    I’m so thrilled this podcast is back! I discovered it so late in the game, it was almost actually heartbreaking to find out they were on hiatus. Listening feels like a throwback to podcasts from an earlier time and knowing they’re back on a refined schedule is the best news I’ve heard all year. Others have said it first and better, but listen to episodes on topics you’ve never heard of / have interest in; the passion is genuine and the insights are resonant. I’ve found new things to engage with... more

  • My Favorite Podcast Returns!

    One of the best podcasts out there on any subject. Both hosts are incredibly genuine and endearing, each in their own way. In an era sorely lacking in media literacy, Supercontext is here to save the day.

  • Finally back!

    Y’all helped me get through the pandemic and then disappeared! I really liked your deep dives and your opinions.

You were my first ever podcast as prior to COVID I just read, and during COVID libraries closed.

  • Intellectually Riveting

    This pod is long dead when I've found it but full of interesting backlog. I love analysis of media that delves into context and interpretation, not just if something was good/bad or a plot summary. This isnt close reading or analysis of craft (which I also love) but of the overall end results and how a piece of media sits within cultural context. They also dive into the production of each piece of media, a topic I usually don't care about! They bring research and quotes to discuss and prove they... more
