Awesome episodes

I usually never write reviews, but I have to say that I thoroughly enjoy each and every episode! What really stuck with me were the interviews with Kenneth Feinberg (The Tragedy Expert) and Paul Holes (The Decades-Long Hunt for the Golden State Killer), but the last one I heard with Jerry Colonna (The Scared Child Inside Every Leader) topped even them! I really like Jerry Colonna on the StartUp Podcast and I really admire how honest and vulnurable he responds in this interview! I’m really looking forward to the episodes yet to come!

Grateful

I first started listening to podcasts when I got hooked on „reply all“ and binge listened to over a hundred episodes in only a few weeks. Gimlet’productions have brought me so much joy, they have helped me cope with anxiety and stress, fear of failure, feeling lonely and sometimes simply entertained me when I needed distraction. This show is no exception to all of gimlet media’s podcasts. Thank you gimlet! I am forever grateful

Gimlet at its best ...

I have followed Gimlet from the very start and I saw it getting off track by trying to fullfill every possible #metoo and # meblack or #mecatlover demand that a company full of (very likeable) do gooders demand from their bosses.

However the audience wants a story that is told in the best possible way and they do not care if the person that tells it is green, blue or red he/she needs to be good.
