Dream fans....WE ARE BACK!
We're reimagining The Dream as a weekly interview podcast with guests and segments about, I don't know.... whatever we want? Don't worry! We'll still be focused on the "American Dream" and all the assholes that make it infinitely harder to achieve. We'll just have a bit more freedom in how we present it.

I also enjoyed S2 as a critical look at the broader wellness industry but agree with others that it seemed less well informed than S1.
S3, however, has completely lost me. I was particularly disappointed with the Boopity Boopity Boop episode - yikes that has not aged well. Imagine telling a woman in her ... more
I really enjoyed the first few seasons that were focused on particular topics, like MLM’s and health grifters.
