What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Therapy Gecko has become a staple in my day, whenever I’m cooking or doing chores it’s always on. Perfect podcast to make you reflect on your own life without being too heady or informative. Just a fella in a lizard costume.

Wolfo109 · Jun 2024

I’ve been watching & listening to therapy gecko since the get go. Today I listened to “WOULD YOU EAT YOUR FRIEND’S LEG?” and the titular opening call was so gross I had to put my dinner down. The following call was an intensely serious medical topic and the tone changed effortlessly. Lyle commits to each conversation and jumps from call to call with such openness to the unknown. 5 stars. Always.

bhurleym · Sep 2022

I love listening to this podcast as someone who is fascinated by people. It is very peaceful to listen in on Lyle’s calm responses and encouraging words. It also prompts me to reflect on my own life. It has helped me through long drives or cleaning sprees. Thank you Lyle!

AubreyPlatypus · Sep 2022

Hilarious, heartfelt, silly, all around a good time. Has definitely helped me get through.

ZakAttakYa · May 2022

This podcast has a great concept and yet feels like a knock off of the podcast, Beautiful Anonymous . Unfortunately these podcasts both have self absorbed hosts, who want to talk about themselves more than the caller and they think everything they say is hysterical. How great would it be to prioritize the callers?!Real folks who need to be heard. I would love listening on those calls without all the self serving “noise”.
