What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I found Matt Archer’s work via YouTube. It’s under the same title, and has a few short form videos between the longer conversations. I find his content to circle around what we should be doing to be better humans, not simply better people. While there is a lot of content out there that tries to sell us something, Archer’s content isn’t selling anything other than a better We (the human We). The two guests so far cover topics we may have already drawn conclusions on, and re-evaluating our thinking on them. I really like this channel because it doesn’t feel like it’s leaning into a school of thought, but rather exploring “Thought”. It’s philosophical thinking at it’s best, in properly digestible portions, without tangential references, and focused on learning better. Feels like something we need right now. Tackling ideas, rather than joining a political camp around it.
