My favorite podcast!

This podcast is a wonderful way for me to feel connected to the secular humanist community. It’s my favorite podcast, and I try to go back and listen to the older episodes as well as keeping up with current ones. I appreciate the variety of subjects, guests, humor and information. I met Seth at a speaking event and I am so thankful for his listening ear and his kind words of encouragement. Thank you, Seth for everything you do. Keep up the good work!

I owe this guy a coffee

“Don’t take medical advice from a podcast” is great, but what happens when Seth’s show opens you up to a line of physiological inquiry that sheds light on some long understudied issue? Well, ep. 730 did this for me, and it’s only one of countless relatable stories that shed some light not only on the experience of being godless, but of being a good person in general, in ways that inspire and continue to help.
