Not good at all
What a horrible podcast, total waste of time listening to this. I couldn’t make it through the first episode

Raises fair & interesting points
does Jon Ronson play Elliot Loudermilk in Scrooged? It’s a fine listen, good stories well told, yadda yadda; I like it when authors voice their own audiobooks. though it really made me thirsty for a Jon Ronson VS Jonah Lehrer cage match. lol can you imagine? those nerds fighting no gloves no holds barred? 👄 💦 🤮

Quick and Interesting
A nice, short spoken word version of the book of the same name, narrated by the author. His take is well worth listening to, even if you don’t agree with everything he says.

Well-written & produced.
From a listener in California: I appreciate this writer’s thoughts (I heard all except Episode 1, due to self-imposed content restriction on my phone). Beneficial -- as well as very sad — to listen to. Sounds like I am not missing much out there on Facebook & Twitter. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us.

A much needed dialogue we need to have
Prior to Monica Lewinsky’s TedTalk about bullying, I hadn’t given much thought on how someone’s actions could go so global and how we (people not involved in the day to day) could be so harsh and cruel. Her TedTalk opened my eyes in that things aren’t always as they seem and even though accountability should exist, we should truly think about how we go about that. This podcast furthers this and challenges me as well to not just hop on the band wagon of jeering and throwing cyber shade. Admittedly I’m guilty of this, am I cruel? No, but that’s besides the point. I think this podcast is great to learn about how people’s lives can change in the blink of an eye (even if it seems well deserved) and how we can try to approach our online thoughts and opinions with a little compassion, empathy and understanding because God Forbid, we’re all complex individuals who at any point can slip up and have everything ripped from us. I recommend this podcast and hope it creates a chain reaction to help us be kinder on social media and the web.
