I’ve been a long time listener to the podcast and newsletter subscriber. I was surprised when I saw I hadn’t rated this yet. Needless to say, it’s five stars. Aaron Renn brings a calm yet different perspective than you often hear. He also brings a wide variety of guests to interview on a range of topics. It’s worth listening to a few episodes. After you do, I imagine you’ll find a new show to add to your playlist.
I listened to about the first 6 months of his podcasts. At that point, I felt like I was wasting my time. I also wondered, why is this guy so guarded about telling us his opinions? I know many factual things about his life - from Indiana, moved to Chicago and NYC, went to Keller’s church, was a consultant, worked at think tanks MI and AEI, moved back to Indiana, etc. But I know very little about his opinions. He may think that it’s important so people don’t reject his ideas based on biases aga... more
I really like Renn. He’s attuned to the question of many Christian men:

Aaron is a master of making complex issues clear. He brigs a razor sharp mind and genuine inquisitiveness to each topic. I appreciate that he reads his newsletter, but it’s hard to listen to in the background, so I prefer to read those. For easy listening sake, I prefer his conversations with guests as they better suit the medium. Keep up the great work Aaron!
