Jack Ruby please

Love it ♥️ ♥️ so much! Listen to it on car rides and while writing this review.

Was recommended by a family member. Made it 20 minutes. So many words spoken with so little information communicated.

No notes

Loved it for years. Helped me through Pandemic. Thank you for correcting guests, maybe get some with a little less assuming. “A movie about queerness could never be made at this time.” “Tom Hanks was in Philadelphia at this same time.” Oof.

I love the great storytelling that goes into the multi-source research of this podcast. My favorites are the several episode deep-dive type stories. I like to go back and forth between the early episodes and the more recents.

Hi Sarah, your Desperation Pie episode actually is using the audio from the Rhinelander episode (if you are not aware already)

I love your housekeeping content! A fresh a fabulous take.👏👏 quick note on the desperation pie episode. Disney world didn’t open until 1971

Interesting and informative podcast was ruined by hosts’ constant giggling. I won’t listen again

Loved loved loved this ep. Need a whole series. The yinzer in me sees the carNEGie in you

Came for the Keiko episode hoping to hear more or at least a different take than the NYT version. This was poorly researched, a lot of speculation, and didn’t really add anything interesting. The host and guest should have listened to that series first - there were a lot of comments like, “no one really knows…” when it was in fact very well known.

Sarah has created a world that revolves all around her. Congratulations!

This has been one of the most thoughtful podcasts in my rotation. I’ve been listening since the rotten in Denmark guy was a regular partner. Always empathetic to the right people, and Sarah keenly understands how circumstances influence behavior (and matters like mental health disorders are handled with exceptional sensitivity). Had to write this the after LOLing at the crop circle clip commentary. Just the best. There is no doubt the ideas and perspectives of Sarah and guests have influenced my thinking in the most positive ways. Love you.

More crime and court case episodes please. The recent ones remind me of O.G. You’re Wrong About I fell in love with.

Remarks about MAGA being a “cult” are offensive and stupid. It alienates listeners on both sides of the political aisle and has nothing to do with your content. Do better.

Worst Movie Ever Episode. The pro podcaster voice was really grating on me, but when he said “cocksman” I had to bounce. See ya next episode Sarah.

I just love this show. Her voice is so pleasant to me. Just a nice show! Worth checking out. It's kind of like, the cozy game of podcasts. Like what you imagine Wish Me Well from Sanrio would do as a podcast. 10/10.

One of my faves. Sarah brings an inspiring amount of consideration and humanity to every topic of conversation. She reads into the motivations of people and events from near history like a literature professor, and her and her guests come out of it with a 3-dimensional study from which we can all learn. Also, she’s really funny.

I’ve listened to this podcast for years, and I personally loved it much more when Michael was the cohost. The subject matter continues to be some of the best out there. Sometimes Sarah’s emotional commentary and frequent personal anecdotes—inserted every few minutes—can get a bit distracting and annoying. Still, overall, the show is absolutely worth a listen.

I have listened to this podcast from the start. I loved it with and without Michael. I loved all the Tanya, OJ, Michelle Remembers etc. I binged the Keiko series today and had all the feels. As a fellow Oregonian child I can’t express how much this hit. Thank you for consistently reminding me of the messiness of being human.

At this point I’m genuinely convinced Sarah has made some sort of pact or (legally binding?) commitment to mentioning Newsies (1992) at least once per episode.

Sara is very enjoyable with her dry humor and intelligence. Sometimes she gets a little overboard in the emotional melodrama, but it’s worth that to hear her insights. Michael is bearable at times, but ironically doesn’t realize that he would be the most insufferable date of all, despite his denigration of insufferable dates. The biggest downside is the clutching of pearls on a random topic, and how terrible the transgressor is, but it’s usually a nothingburger…or, in a bizarre typical example, they will denegrate the usage of a common phrase or stereotype, say Nicole Brown Simpson being described as objectively good looking. Their outrage over the usage of the term, plus the dramatic puzzled questioning of WhAt tHaT eVEn iS?!?!, they present as a crime against humanity. Wut? But then later they refer to Paula Barbieri, as, you guessed it, objectively good looking. Ugh. Please. Weathervaning is not clever. A fair number of episodes have just plain wrong information, or bizarre interpretations of the facts. Especially annoying is taking the side of someone who is guilty, just because it presents as being socially conscious or empathetic. For instance, the non-revelation that the welfare queen that Ronald Reagan demonized, actually didn’t steal millions of dollars is not news. But their support of her, and riffing in conclusion that it would be great if she had is, well, gross. There’s no shortage of other episodes where someone who shouldn’t have done what they did gets glorified. Oops. Last problem is that more than half of the 100+ episodes heard don’t qualify as you’re wrong about revelations. They’re just rehashes of items that have already been unmasked in the arena of common knowledge for many years. When they are on, it’s good. When they are off, or wrong, or banging the drum for a guilty cause, move to the next episode.

every time I try to manually search “You’re Wrong About” my search kept saying “can’t connect right now”. I searched up this podcast by typing Sarah Marshall, and that worked! Interesting how my phone seems to not want me to search for this podcast… something to look into? love what you do Sarah! thank you 💟💟💟

Sarah is smart, creative, and wildly witty. Each and every episode is like a top rated movie. Much prefer to learn about fascinating news topics from YWA than regular news outlets. Highly recommend!

One of my favorite podcasts. Always get excited for the new ones to come out

I first discovered Sarah through her collabs with American Hysteria and am so obsessed with this pod. Sarah is obviously absolutely brilliant, so witty, and hilarious. I love her dry humor and Daria-like personality. I’m so impressed with her ability to somehow embody such intelligence and teach us fascinating things while keeping it effortlessly entertaining, relatable, and human. I love how authentic the show feels and truly think Sarah could improv talk about anything unscripted in a way that will never fail to be fascinating and hilarious.

I’m so behind on podcasts because of TikTok but I recently got back into them and found this one. I’m working my way backwards. Sarah clearly does intense research and I learn so much about things I thought I knew but didn’t have the whole story. Keep up the good work!

This pod is so fascinating, I have yet to be bored by a topic! I suppose if you hate facts and learning you might not like this pod, but I’m hooked!

Doing my yearly re-listen of YWA and I just have to say that Sarah’s Bill Clinton and Ted Levine impressions are unmatched

This has fast become my favourite podcast! I don’t want to imagine what happens once I’ve listened to the whole back catalogue. Thanks so much for creating this for us!

Episodes wax and wane in interest and fact-based accuracy. Used to listen more, now less.

I just found the podcast and went back to the first episode. It’s amazing how the 2018 episodes foreshadowed 2025 life. Not even sure the hosts remember what they’ve said.

Thoughtful, well-edited, kindhearted, informative, hilarious. I love Sarah and she chooses her guests so well. I enjoy hearing Sarah’s candid thoughts on a vast span of subjects this show has covered and I doubt I’ll ever have enough to satiate my desire!! More Sarah Marshall!

Love this podcast

Seriously, for a show of researchers who characterize 1948 as the Nakba (not a war with that was declared on the new state, not a rejection of a two state partition), please, for the love of all things not propaganda, read some real history books on the region. My mouth dropped open when you called Paul Rueben’s dad a war criminal and changed my 5 star rating to 3.

Just a bunch of activists talking points regurgitated - depressing that this show is so popular. If you’re seeking thoughtful, reported content without dogma then keep seeking!

Been awhile since I’ve found raw unedited convo that reinvigorates my soul. One episode in and I’m already obsessed. “Chris McCandless.” Award winning! Omigursh, I laughed out loud, cried, rewound a bunch, and made a bajillion personal connections. Food for the soul. Hit on so many incredible takeaways. Braver man is an unmatched storyteller! Bravo!!

I have been listening to this podcast for several years. I am a big fan of Sarah Marshall. She is so thoughtful and articulate in discussing a wide variety of topics. Thanks, Sarah!

My parents were magicians and we did a ghost show every year. I loved this episode as I used to perform in it with them!

It’s wild how far the show has strayed from being a fact based show over the past few years. I completely understand Sarah Marshall’s unwillingness to push back against the guests (my social anxiety could never), but it now means we’re limited to the scope and opinion of the guest. Sometimes you get lucky and the guest IS an expert in their field, and sometimes the show becomes guilty of pushing the same stereotypes and narratives that its premise rallies against. At the end of the day the podcast is intended for entertainment, but I wish there was more transparency that the show is no longer looking to inform, rather it wants to pub-talk about culture and entertain

This podcast has become a place I can rely on for comfort, and a place I can catch my breath. Always good for an unjaded outside perspective. So grateful. Thank you!

Can you tell me what happened to the hole in the ozone layer?

As another user said, it’s a shame that Zionists have taken over the review section for one of the most compassion-forward, people-oriented pieces of media I have ever listened to. This podcast is a treasure in dark times, and as someone who has lived in a red state since before the COVID pandemic, sometimes the only thing keeping me sane is knowing that there are indeed people out there who share my views and care about others. Thank you for what you do and thank you for taking a stand against the Palestinian genocide in a world that has stigmatized such a stance so severely.

One day I found myself thinking.. I wonder if there’s a podcast just about common misconceptions or the like. Then found this! Sarah is such a delightful host and I started listening when Mike was also along, but all the guests are so complementary to the subject matter. Thank you for continuing!

Literally Poseidon, aquaman

I’ve only listened to some of the older episodes and immediately noticed a lack of nuance, research and a lot of misinformation, especially about mental health issues—Multiple Personality Disorder (DID) and Psychopathy (Anti-social Personality Disorder), for example. I liked the chemistry between the cohost but read that Michael left the show later on. I find Sarah smug and her general take on the past relies too much on her present perspective. Not impressed.

I love this show and listen every.time. In the latest episode Sarah and Mackenzie were talking the monkees. It would be a great episode and maybe a series!

Was excited to listen all about pee wee and instead inject your personal opinions of his father and Israel, so hypocritical talking about your journalistic approach and then open his story like that, maybe do some more digging

As a fellow Millennial , who grew up in Portland- I feel like I’m listening to a friend’s musings. Thanks for bringing a bit of home and comfort to my headphones.

Extremely depressing to see so many Zionists flooding these reviews with their false equivalence of “antisemitism” and anti-Zionism. I’m a professional historian of antisemitism and heard only a critique of the genocidal IDF, not a single word about Jews or the Jewish faith. And for all the “study actual history” people… again, I’m a professional historian and I am well aware of the history of both the Holocaust and the Nakba, thank you. Go defend murd3ring children elsewhere and get off a leftist podcast.
