What happened to the essays?! I miss the essays!! Now it’s just guests and Anna talking about themselves.

Happy for Katie and Mark. It’s like Seinfeld’s “Schmoopie” episode, but with a better outcome.

Meh.

Interesting guests. Would benefit from a different host.

Love you, Anna Martin!

What’s with all the negative reviews, people? This podcast is as good as ever, and the show descriptions allow you to pick and choose what you want to hear. Hate celebrity chats? Skip ‘em! Only want to hear the column read out loud? Easy! Love you, Anna Martin. Your insightful questions and compassionate responses when your guests show vulnerability are appreciated by this long-time listener.

Used to be great

Modern Love used to be awesome. Anna Martin interrupts too much and tries too hard to relate to the guests. The guests are entitled…it so hard to feel bad for them. The concept for this podcast is great. Bring back Meghna Chakrabarti.
