  • Always learn a new perspective

    I’ve listened to a number of these episodes and keep thinking “wow, I didn’t realize that”. Want to understand issues more deeply? Want to get a new perspective on “why?” Jen Taylor-Skinner has marvelous conversations with important, effective people. I’m a fly on the wall listening to impactful conversations about issues that I feel deeply about. In just this last episode with Liz Walters, the chairwoman of the Ohio Democratic Party, I learned that 2.5 million people have been purged from ... more

  • Wonderful, eye-opening podcast!

    Jen does an amazing job of finding smart, interesting women to interview. I’ve learned so much listening to this podcast. The negative reviews here are so funny to me, because (A) it’s clearly people who have never listened to the podcast who just hate anything they perceive as “feminist” and (B) facts don’t care about trolls’ opinions. This is a wonderful podcast. I recommend it to everyone!

  • Self congratulations

    If you’re young, of color, and gay you’re obviously right because you’re triple woke. Since I’m none of these things I have no standing and no ideas according to this podcast. My only role is to “pass the torch” This podcast is so self satisfied it’s completely un-self aware
