    Podcast started out excellent...
    I love the early episodes of the podcast, where it was about medicine and humanity. The podcast took a political turn at the end of season 2. That killed the podcast for me. If the podcast returns to its roots and goes back to medicine and humanity. I’ll be right back listening to it.

    Incredible
    In fairness, I’ve only listened to season 4. Beautifully done. I dream about telling a complex human story with such clarity and understanding. A profound flip switch flipped for me. I’m headed to Season 1 and feeling grateful.

    Aftereffect episodes
    I loved this podcast before the aftereffect series of episodes, but somehow my appreciation for the podcast has grown more. Wonderful, human-centered journalism.

    After effects is so moving!
    As the sister of an autistic young adult, I am completely blown away and impressed by the quality and care that the producers are putting into this story. Keep it up.

    All I want is more episodes!
    This is one of my top 5 favorite podcasts. (And I listen to a LOT of podcasts.) Wendy is hilarious and the scripted style keeps her on track. I learn something new every time I listen to an episode!!

    I have loved every episode I’ve listened to, and find myself thinking about them long after the fact.

    Interesting perspectives on human health
    A wide range of subject matter begining with the host's personal story and continuing into varied territory such a doctor's abuse of painkillers, the truth about calorie counts, and trans-gender kids.
  • Brooke Craven
    Awesome Podcast
    The host of Only Human highlights all aspects of humanity in this can’t miss podcast. The host and expert guests offer insightful advice and information that is helpful to anyone that listens!
  • ghfvyfycdf
    Pretty much perfect
    Even topics I don't expect to be interested in are explored so well that I'm eager to listen to the whole episode. Between seasons I really miss them and get so excited when the new season comes out.

    Variety & Top-Notch
    I recently came across Only Human, and I was delighted to see that there were so many episodes I could "catch up " on. The topics of stories and interviews are varied but all of extreme interest. All are told and conducted with sensitivity and professionalism. This podcast offers humor, information, puzzlement. If you want to take worthwhile mental journeys, this podcast is for you. Never disappointing. Never a waste of time.

  • Kat Law
    A great resource
    I work in behavioral health research and this is takes a personal glimpse into why we do what we do with out all the science verbage and makes it accessable for the masses while teaching professionals a thing or two.
  • Hubbar91
    One of my favs!
    I love listening to podcasts that feature people making connections - and what connects us better than the trials and tribulations of the human body. Was bummed when I ran out of episodes to listen to.
  • Careiin
    Excellent

    Listen While I Work
    I listen to podcasts while at work and this is a good one when my anxiety level is high. All of the people who speak have such soothing voices; it helps me relax. I will get some laughs, and learn some things, all while getting my work done. I hope they continue with some episodes.
  • Mrmck6
    Every story is intriguing.
    I love the the real life stories of people battling some very mysterious illnesses. I also enjoy that each episode they read and play comments from listeners on the previous episode. It's great to see how the stories touch their lives.
  • Alexa_SJ
    Binge listened to them all and wishing for more!!
    It's that good, and relatable, and diverse. I love the wide range of topics but all still within our crazy bodies. Mary Harris is an amazing, intuitive and curious host. My only wish is there would be episodes more often😊😊 but she is a busy mom so I can understand how that goes, the days roll right on by!!
  • OnTheRadio
    Engaging health stories
    I've just started listening and now I'm listening to all the old episodes. This podcast makes health and health care stories both informative and fun to listen to. If you love story telling with a purpose like This America Life and Radio Lab you will love this podcast.
  • DylanFoley
    "Rather Have a Living Son"--Amazing
    Just finished listening to the August 2nd podcast on transgender children and the doctors and nurses who treat them. It was an amazing, heartbreaking piece about brave teenagers and their parents in an intolerant world which turns bathroom choice into a vicious political issue. Mary Harris--please keep the great, compassionate podcasts coming.
  • Karl_Jo
    Incredible
    Only Human has truly become one of my most favorite podcasts. The episode 'Every (Dead) Body has a Story' was moving, fascinating, and human.
  • Annietheknitter
    10/10 would recommend!

  • Aocart
    Excellent!
    Love this podcast. The unique perspective they approach topics of life and medicine has been enriching.
  • CuzTumbleweed
    Most thought-provoking, interesting podcast
    Wow. I am blown away by Only Human. I think it should be "required listening" for all incoming freshman - it teaches empathy, kind questioning, and highlights so many of the dilemmas in life. I don't know too many books that do the same. Outstanding.
  • Bandy55
    Incredible, thought proviking podcast
    This podcast is absolutely amazing. It goes deep into all kinds of things that affects us most. I recommend the first episode where Mary Harris takes us into her life and her decision to do chemo and continue a pregnancy will make you see the world to her eyes for those 20 minutes, and really understand the wonderfulness and impactfulness that this podcast is. Mary Harris hits it out of the ball park every single podcast episode with incredible stories!!

    One of my favorites
    I wasn't a huge fan of some of the earlier episodes, but now the show has found its voice. I look forward to each new episode, and the topics are fascinating. They are telling stories that you don't hear anywhere else.
  • Organized Traveler
    Very interesting
    Great podcast. I just discovered this about 3 months ago and I am already a huge fan. Great stories and very well presented. I usually listen to each story at least twice. Keep up the good work.
