I love this show because is more than just about money issues is about humanity

I’ve been listening to this show since it started and have greatly enjoyed it. And then guest Kimberly Adams said “at the end of the day it’s just a cat” on an episode about saving the lives of our pets. Uugh. What a callous woman.

This is like therapy one can take action from

Really thoughtful interviews and intimate stories about a topic most don’t talk about!

I look forward to every episode. I learn a lot about my own choices when I listen to someone else’s personal story on how they deal with finances. It gives me less anxiety to deal with a tough topic and be less judgy. Thank you!

I’m someone who has lot to learn about financial literacy and this podcast makes it more approachable, less scary. I can’t wait to follow and learn more!

Nice premise. Nice voice. Blatant agenda underlying the writers’ conformist viewpoints. Perfect background listening for some.

I love this podcast for its thought-provoking insights on the intersection of human thoughts and behavior with money.

I really did like this show in the first two seasons. However, after the second episode, of this season, where the host referred to the Oct 7th attacks as perpetrated by “Hamas Fighters” I can’t listen to it anymore without acknowledging the clear bias that the show has taken.

Thank you for this great show. Keep up the hard work!

My favorite show from NPR! Reema does an amazing job telling interesting and emotional personal stories while exploring what they say about our larger cultural understanding of money, finances, and relationships

One of the most interesting podcasts about finances and people. Reema is a great host and the topics are relevant.

The inflection and radio voices are changing. Younger generations sound like they are from the Valley these days. Interesting show but the voice is something I cannot stand. It’s not just this show, it’s most shows where the hosts sound like this.

No credibility whatsoever. Slanted, biased, and useless discussions. An episode on that whiny victim-playing litigious whiny Jewish gaslighter Eric Abramowitz? What a joke. Boohoo, he’s still mad at his girlfriend from years ago despite the fact that he suffered no harm in the end despite everything he put her through and how he freeloaded off her. Whine whine whine. What a loser. The fact that you choose to report on this loser without verifying all the facts makes you a loser as well. Shut down your babble and remove your podcast from the public sphere.

Reema has a talent for choosing great stories and letting her subjects speak their truth. I look forward to every episode. Thank you, Reema, and all the others who work to make this a compelling and professionally produced podcast.

Show started well but lately became propaganda show for ham a s s

I know some people may say this is homophobic, but I genuinely don’t care. The category this is under is business which fits however I fell the description should include more of who the show mainly speaks about. More specifically I see business i think the host may be a business major making pod cast as a kind of educational consultant for others. However a lot of these issues are things I have and never will face. Perhaps adding a targeted group to descriptions would be good for owners and the site in general. My problem is not with the host or the content as I see it being useful for certain groups of people and significantly less useful for others.

a show about how gay people are bad at managing money

I appreciated the departure from the normal content over the past few weeks. Talking to someone who is currently under siege about their financial situation and prospects is not something we often get to hear but it’s so important!

I’ve been listening to this show for years and loved this episode. It hit me so hard-I felt I had to write about it. How can anyone ANYONE not recognize that we are all just trying to live our lives, love our families and children? Reema is such an insightful and wonderful interviewer and storyteller.

Latest season is a major departure from previous. Not interested.

So appreciative listening in on you and your dad, his memories of Gaza, the way you bring humanity to Palestinians. Thank you for doing this episode.

This show has a lot of potential but doesn’t really know what it’s about

The producers balance in-depth research with candid interviews and inquiry-focused narration to deliver a first-rate podcast. One of my favorites.

I’m a longtime listener and fan of this show, but I’m leaving a review today because I’m really impressed by the thoughtfulness and vulnerability displayed by the host in the latest episode. This is important on a whole other level than the usual (great) episodes of this podcast. I applaud everyone in involved in making this episode happen.

rigorous yet heartfelt reporting; thank you to Reema and TIU for sharing this story.

Great story telling

Excellently explored stories on subjects anyone can find relevant

I’ve been a subscriber of This Is Uncomfortable for a few years now. Many of the episodes are quite interesting. However, there is too much homosexuality in the podcast. I’m out…

Since discovering the podcast “This Is Uncomfortable,” I have been binging all episodes hungrily. Reema is an outstanding interviewer with excellent empathy and care who ask intriguing questions that delve deeper without intruding. The variety of topics that are addressed includes topics that affect everyone and others that strike me as entirely new.

So good and thought provoking topics. I donated to NPR because of this podcast. Thank you.

Aside from my daily fix of NPR, this is uncomfortable, is my favorite podcast. Reema does a great job of storytelling rooted in journalism.

Reema is a gifted journalist with a wonderful radio voice who has a very bright future. I look forward to more This is Uncomfortable and whatever more she might do in the years to come. She would be a great host of Marketplace someday.

This used to be new but now it has become repetitive, same theme again and again. It is almost impossible to keep hearing the same old same old first world problems when so many bad things are going around the world…

This podcast has helped me navigate my own feelings around money and how it affects my relationships, decisions, etc. so easy to listen to!

Late to the game discovering this, but it’s incredible, nuanced storytelling on often neglected subjects without being preachy... I’m on the emotional edge of my seat every episode while learning about new things. Really, really well done

Such interesting stories and thoughtful reporting

Seems like a really empathetic and expansive team put this show together. Keep going pls

Only a few seasons in, but I love the balance of the host and the story.

Every story is fascinating- more about personal experience than about money. I loved the dual episode that started with the story about selling one’s eggs to a fertility clinic.

Learned about this podcast after it was featured by the Bodies podcast (which is stellar). I’ve listened to 2 episodes now and can’t wait to hear the rest! I found the discussions interesting and it made me think of things I haven’t before. I love finding people who are enlightened that I can learn from, thank you from Michigan!

Stories about the tru issues of money in our lives, jobs love and dead

In depth and engrossing. I like how this podcast stays with one story the whole episode. It reveals the role of money in surprising ways. Thought provoking.

I got through phases with many podcasts, but This is Uncomfortable is a steady favorite and I never miss an episode. Reema has such a steady presence and I really enjoy listening to her interview her guests. I think money is something we should talk more about and this podcast helps!

Call me and I’ll do a show 9188601154 A Cna for 15 years that was set up lied to and now treated like a prisoner. Owner of two businesses and my partner allowed John foster and Ronnie killough to destroy us

These stories are so compelling and told with such empathy!

Love the stories!

I didn’t realize how weird I was about money until I listened to a few of these episodes. Financial abuse in marriage on a high level with the IRS and taxes is more common than you’d think, and it would be enlightening to hear more complex money stories as a series. Post separation financial abuse leaves the partner who is caring for the home and child(ren) at a huge disadvantage that can financially demolish their credit and basic security, sometimes on a level of destitution. It happens all the time to mid-age women, just as their skills are glaringly outdated, at a time when society is simultaneously discarding them. Love the podcast, but that’s my pitch!

Reema unravels the ways money binds us and gets to the tender places we don’t often hear. It helps me feel a little less alone and less crazy about my own money situation.

Not people with uteruses.
