Listener Reviews

A podcast worth a multiple day binge, for weeks. Easy to listen to, great topics and interesting guests. Truly enjoy.

Music…I don’t agree with that "10%" of people dislike music. It’s like saying those people dislike sound. Sounds and Music is intertwined. Excellent show. Thank You Very Much DDH Having a Sense of Belonging is Very Important.!!!!!!! People who believe that they are Extroverts or Introverts based on the Myers-Briggs Personality Test using the + and - isn’t particularly useful. How introverted is that person or how extroverted is that person etc??? There’s different levels of personality traits etc. I’m sure you know that. Thank you

Useful practical enjoyable, this guy is a total pro!

Mike, you are the best podcast host of all time! Your manner of questioning and the way you steer the conversation with your guests is just phenomenal!You are the best interviewer ever!

Concise, truthful, knowledgeable, useful!!!

I really enjoy how Mike brings the common sense questions to his guests that I was also wondering. He probes where it needs to be probed. Thanks for that. Also his show has an excellent variety of subjects, even within the same episodes. Some podcasts I can’t wait until they have been finished, because they are extremely long, not his. These are just the right length and contain the right interesting content to keep my attention. Keep up the great work.

I subscribe to other podcasts similar to Mike’s and I often find that the same guess are interviewed. Then I have moments of déjà vu. One thing I’ve learned over the years of listening to Mike, he sounds like a huge “germaphobe”.

I enjoy how when he interviews people, and he asks questions that I’m wondering about. He applies it to his life, and makes the info be more easily digested. Light topics but interesting.

I am listening to the show where you discuss placebo’s and I want to tell what I did Several months ago for several months have an issue falling back to sleep. (This is after waking to use the restroom). Anyway, I really didn’t to take "the common” over-the-counter sleep aid because it was rumored to laced with all kinds of junk.So what I did take a white tic tack (the candy) swallowed it like a pill. I still use the breathing technique I 3 breaths in 1 long slow out breath through works every time. However at that particular stretch, I needed an additional aid!Thanks again,tAlison lSchuback

I’ve never come across a wellness podcast that goes so far out of its way to attack Christianity. These attacks are completely unrelated and in bad taste! How can I trust you with my health if you attack our faith!!??

Really enjoyed this episode excellent and informative. Michael Carruthers is such a good host.

Nobody does it better…..🎼 Thank you!

Nice intentions, much ess satisfying discussions.

Probably, the best podcast on this platform

I listen to this show all of the time and definitely find it very interesting and informative.

Enjoyed this podcast, but was disappointed to hear forcing crickets to fight for entertainment or money this week. That made me both embarrassed and sad for society. Don’t include the casual reference to the abuse of a living creature or point out that it is not moral.

This has got to be the best podcast out there. So many interesting topics and a variety of subjects. There is something here for everyone.

Such a great all-around podcast. Easy listening and you always learn something interesting. No matter what kind of mood you’re in or if you can’t decide what to listen to, if you pick SYSK, you’ll likely be in a better mood and will be happy with your choice!

Hi!Since you asked and I did have a reaction to the episode about restaurants, here goes. First, as you both readily admitted the interview was very much from the restaurant point of view as opposed to the customer’s and it would have been more interesting to present both, but my more important reaction was that, because I live in New York City, I accept the high prices most of the time—everything seems way too expensive and I’m actually glad that post Covid—they have to pay their employees more. The really big problem for me—and I’m not a twenty something bar hopper—is the noise level. When I eat out, a very important part of the experience is the conversation and that has become impossible in many if not most restaurants today. I really hate having to shout to make myself heard. Just saying….Ellen

Interesting information and fun conversations

The host does an excellent job of fully exploring the topic with anyone he interviews. He respectfully challenges them while exploring their views. It one of my “go-to” podcast.

In the ep 1.041 title, “Everyday” should be two words. It’s only one word when used as an adjective.

I first started listening to Stuff You should Know because Matt Paxton (Hoarders) was a guest. But then the next episode came on and I quickly learned about Van Halen and brown M&Ms…then another about how to provide an amazing experience like Disney…then another. I can get bored, especially when learning about things that don’t interest me. I usually listen to crime but I am so impressed with the interviews and interviewer. He listens and asks great questions, always letting the expert speak. This is my new favorite podcast!

I absolutely love listening to this show! I anticipate & listen to every new episode & when there isn’t a new one I catch up on the previous episodes. Sometimes I enjoy replaying an episode because I know there will always be something to be had that I’ve missed. I love the fact that I know I’ll learn something interesting every single episode no matter what the topics are & there truly is something for everyone. The topics are relevant to the current times & I find myself referring to this show a lot in day to day conversation. I’ve truly gained knowledge from this show & can’t wait to gain even more! I’m 33 years old, from Maine United States, thank you so much! P.S Mike, I love your voice!!! I love your challenging questions to the guests. The blunt but respectful “why does this matter” gets what really matters laid out on the table & in a less complicated view. (To me anyway) More people should ask those types of questions when interviewing. Thank you for existing!! Love, Meredith G.
