Nia King

    In the midst of a super discouraging week, in the midst of a traumatic year, this podcast lifted my spirits way up. I found it because I was looking for interviews with Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasimha and am so sad I didn’t know about it before. It’s an amazing archive of brilliant voices. I wish I was still teaching so that I could use it in the classroom. Thank you so much for your work, Nia!

  • Great show, needs better sound engineering

    I love this show, but the levels are set so low I can barely hear it, so it's not practical to listen to if I'm not somewhere absolutely silent, with my ipad pressed to my ear. So frustrating, because it features really interesting people.

  • Wonderful!

    We Want the Airwaves is such a great podcast, full of thoughtful conversations (about art, gender, sexuality, race, about how people exist and how they express themselves) conducted with humor. A gem.
