I don’t want to oversell this opinion , but this specific episode was life changing. The real life examples resonated with me and offered a path through. Can’t tell you how appreciative I am

This is an honest and nonjudgmental podcast about spiritual/deeper conversation away from the daily stressors and distractions.

I started listening after reading the book and making my husband listen to it. My life is truly different because of the book and the podcast. I am so grateful to hear men being real men with feelings, emotions, and love for humanity. I am not religious but hold so much space for all the beautiful philosophical talks that Rainn and his guests give. Live long and prosper.

Rainn does a great job at remaining open minded and holding space for his guests. He creates a non-judgmental atmosphere to deep dive on some really important issues. It is not an echo chamber type of podcast, and it will challenge you to think beyond yourself and your beliefs. Overall, incredible podcast.

For someone whose markets themself hard as spiritual person, Rainn podcast seems like an outlet for his own pontification. He frequently cuts off guests before they can head in interesting directions in the conversations. He also seems to be pushing a very strong agenda on his guests about faith rather than being curious and open. Anyways just not a great interviewer and even if I love the guest I find myself dissatisfied even though I wanted to like this.

It’s odd where Rainn Wilson wants to inject questions a 13 year old would ask of his guests. For someone advocating for a spiritual revolution, he seems to not know that much about non-Bahai faiths. So you get people on and then ask questions/make assertions about other faith traditions that are both facile and inaccurate. He wants to be both encouraging people to ask spiritual questions and also the cool 13 year old who thinks he knows how stupid religious people and religious faith is. This podcast is a great idea, but the execution makes me squirm.
