Listener Reviews

Every episode is so well done!

Never missed an episode, Shankar is incredible, thanks to all the team who support to get such quality information for public, Life changing and absolutely brilliant and mind blowing. Wish you all the best😊

This podcast has changed my life. Each episode is intriguing and there is always a scientist or specialist interviewed whose work you can continue to read about on your own. Shankar asks questions that open the important connections to popular concerns in our society, but there is always room to draw your own conclusions or see how the central question of the show is relevant to your life. This show let’s stories and science unravel your heat and take root in your mind.

Hi! I’m Amy gooding! This is a good podcast but..I’m looking for more artsy stuff. Thank you!

Shankar is intelligent, funny, and vulnerable in every discussion. Couldn’t appreciate this type of storytelling more!

This is my favorite podcast. I listen every day. I love that the host doesn’t do a podcast to hear his own voice. He is excellent at guiding conversations with guests without having excessive chit chat. Stays on topic without adding random conversation. The topics are extremely varied. The guests are so interesting. I have learned so much. It is very easy to listen to. I found that I even like Episodes that I expected to dislike due to the topic. I’m going to be very sad when I listen to all of them. Love this podcast!

Love this show. Love Shankar. This episode, however, the guest was sharp but I could not stand the constant voice inflections at the end of each of her sentences. It was very distracting.

He seems cool I wish we were friends in real life

Just listen in and explore. ✨✨✨✨

One of my favorite podcast!! I’m always learning something new and useful here. Thank you!!

Always look forward to a new episode.

Best podcast out there. Even though I am a conservative republican, and the views sometimes offer a leftist slant, this podcast is too good to not listen to. I listen between 3-5 times a week and have purchased a handful of books as a result of the podcast, notably 2 of Daniel Kahneman, Rebel Talentbto name a few, with several more on the way. The podcast helps me think deeper, beyond the “noise” that is all too prevalent in our society.James Markus

Hidden Brain has taught me a lot since it’s inception. I love how this podcast addresses the simple, important and often overlooked parts of the human experience. It is good, clean, supportive of love and validating of peace and collaboration. I find myself listening to Hidden Brain once a week as part of my routine. I like that it helps me me improve as a person.

Hidden Brain always gets me thinking deeply and considering different perspectives. It combines interesting research with compelling stories to make for a great listening experience that leaves you wanting to start a conversation with other people. Would be great for a book club!

This is in regards to the conspiracy of silence episode. I get why you focused on DJT…but fast forward to 2021 and 2022 and the deafening silence at the abject failure that Biden has been. Literally no chance DJT gets away with all the stuff Biden has been given a pass on. Interesting how most media is quiet on the matter. All that is happening now fits the narrative of this episode. Oh and Elon Musk potentially taking over Twitter because it really isn’t the free speech engine many would like to pretend it is! What say you Hidden Brain??🫣

My take on it ,is that in workplaces try to generate good behavior through using spy cameras in order to see their true feelings in the matter. In return ,manipulating in the establishment of where colleagues work with one another. This is counterproductive in my opinion. Does this really induce good behavior, knowing what your employee really is feeling ?!

I am so drawn to every episode I have listen to randomly! The topics are interesting the guest are great. The conversation truly hit me hard in the ways I have always struggle with but yet make me feel that I am who I am in an ever changing world. Thanks Shankar and guest

Truly outstanding, thought-provoking podcast. The best of the best.

This is the most helpful, perspective changing pod cast I’ve ever listened to .

This is my absolute favorite podcast. I find great hope and inspiration through each episode. Thank you Hidden Brain!

One of my favorite podcasts ever and a comfort and inspiration now particularly. Thank you, HB team. You’re all my unsung heroes!

I feel sincere gratitude for this podcast and all of the incredibly interesting, insightful, and inspiring information provided. Thank you so much!

Dear Shankar, Thank you for your insights, brought forth over dozens of interviews you’ve conducted over years I’ve been an engaged listener have actually helped me so much. In particular, this week’s interview about grief touched me as a raw nerve in my own story of losses. I’d like to suggest in a follow up to this theme that you also look into ambiguous loss which the sociologist Peggy Boss delves into; U of Minnesota Professor. I love the Hidden Brain Podcast.
