Like hanging with my smart friends!

Maris is incredible, and there is so much intelligence floating around in every episode.

Almost perfect

Great content but the fake self-conscious laughter grates. It always takes me out when I hear Maris fake laughing at the most innocuous statement.

Great podcast!

Love the format, the content, and Maris is a great interviewer!
