    Your recent in-depth conversations with Rep. Ro Khanna have moved me to tears and have given me hope for whatever follows *all of this*. Flight attendant analogy was just what I needed to hear. Ready to tackle the next hard thing! TY

  • Great content, annoying ads

    I really appreciate the content of this podcast, but the ads are too much. How can you take money from Airbnb on one hand and be pro-Palestine on the other? I listen to multiple podcasts that don't have ads, that just want to discuss important topics and engage, which would be great for the content on this podcast. However it seems to be another way to make money and be a part of the fame industrial complex. It's a shame

  • Disappointed In The Change

    Like many of the pod squad, I’ve been here since the beginning. I loved the community and conversation, and it felt like sitting on the couch with your best friends every week. I looked forward to the new episodes. I appreciated the conversations with guests and the three of them working out life together. However, I too am sad with the direction and change it’s taken the last year or so. I no longer look forward to the new episodes and stopped following the show. It may have been better to do a... more

  • Podcast Gold

    I adore a good podcast but am pretty discerning about what I listen to. I just listened for the first time to WCDHT--the “You’re Not Gonna Believe This BS” Billionaires episode. It blew my mind. I was familiar with the guest Anand Giridharadas and so already knew he would be brilliant, but as this was my first episode, I had no idea the host Amanda would be a genius prophet! I have never heard our society explained so well. I literally got an Education ifrom that single episode. Just phenomen... more

  • These women, et al = Love + Beauty

    I laugh, I cry, I “ah-ha,” I appreciate and beam. They speak in, through, at, and with TRUTH, honesty, and best of all humility and empathy. They are a light in my world that keeps my connected, grounded, and whole amidst all the uncertainty and hatred that swells up around us. 💗

(BEST OF) Esther Perel: Protecting Your Relationships During Chaos
Q: What can people do to bring aliveness back into a relationship during COVID and ongoing uncertainty?

(BEST OF) Esther Perel: Protecting Your Relationships During Chaos
Q: Are Abby and I a normal couple? Which one of us is right? And why is it me?
Esther reassures that they are both normal and that the dynamic isn't about one being right; the focus should be on understanding each other and the underlying needs behind the disagreement.
