  • Excessive ads and amateur approach

    The amount of ads is unbelievably excessive and interrupting. Makes me think of ‘by all cost financial’ motivation behind podcasts as such. The content itself appears to be quite shallow, especially compounded by deflated host’s personality who is seemingly disengaged from their audience.

  • Absolutely loved the Daniel Levitin interview

    This is always a fantastic podcast.

    I especially loved the episode with Daniel Levitin on Music as Medicine.

    Full of wonderful information, backed by science and I loved the humour. Thank you Julia, you have such a beautiful interviewing style and it’s so wonderful that we get to witness your skill as a psychologist in these shows. Your daughters too.

    Highly recommended
