  • What the podcast format is best at!

    This show is wonderful, and it also makes me realize how many podcasts are made for rather superficial or disposal purposes, if you are looking for a podcast with more substance and meaning than most , but still in a fun digestible format this is for you!

  • Little nuggets of wisdom and fun

    I love that topics run the gamut from the mundane (wash your feet) to the profound (grief, love, tragedy), but my favorites are the longer interview-style episodes. Zak is humble and curious and knows how to ask the questions to reveal deeper truths. And unlike a ton of podcast hosts, he can tell a story AND keep it brief.
