A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Dedicated longtime listener. Rich is a compassionate and insightful host who is not afraid to ask probing questions or thoughtfully counter his guests. Recent favorites are episodes with Josh and Noah.

I have been listening to RR for years and have learned so much and been so inspired by many of his guests but I am tired of it being (mostly white) male guests. Out of 49 regular podcasts this season only 9 have been women. I’m incredibly disappointed by this oversight in who they’re booking. Unfortunately taking this out of my listening rotation for now.

Airandrocks · Aug 2024

I've been listening to Rich's podcast since the beginning & every episode I love it more and more. His growth as a wellness advocate & podcaster is amazing. One of the many things I love about the podcast is his interview style. As a litigator myself, I'm very picky about how people speak, ask questions, and convey themselves. Rich does so clearly, authentically, and insightfully. In addition, I also love the range of topics he explores, from nutrition to exercise to spiritual wellness. His entire podcast library, just like his philosophy, is holistic in the truest sense. For those who say this is not a "health & fitness" podcast, you're missing the point. Health & fitness is more about workouts & what's in your water bottles! Most importantly, Rich is the "every man." He actually is just like a normal, average person. People get tired of taking advice from people with a wall of degrees who lack practical experience. Rich has been through struggles & consciously chose to overcome them. He makes his conversations relatable. He shows how anyone can transform his/her situation. I come away from every single episode inspired & hungry for more.

Michele Walter · Aug 2024

I originally read Rich Roll's book since I love reading about runners but his story was more than just inspiring. I found his podcast and he is a fantastic interviewer knowing when to let the person talk and circles back and somehow always asks the questions I'm wondering myself. Somehow gets the coolest guests and meshes with all of them. Would love to hear more Mike Posner podcasts since the two guys have great conversations and bring out the best in each other. Thank you!! Keep doing what you're doing

D1 college runner · Jul 2024

This podcast was a great source of information years ago, but this will be the last time I listen. Rich has always interrupted female guests repeatedly…or talked over them…but it has become ridiculous. The guy needs to learn how to use a period at the end of a sentence. In the ozempic episode he talks over the guy with lived experience and decries Big Pharma…and then cuts right to a plug for supplements. The hypocrisy is tangible.

MP - Maine · Jun 2024

Re: May 23, 2024 episode on Ozempic. Five stars for Mr Hari (I’ve just ordered his book) and two stars for Rich Roll. Mr Roll’s contempt for people affected by the disease obesity while sitting on his high-hill of extreme privilege was both annoying and disturbing.
