    Too many advertisements
    I am disappointed in the amount of advertisements before getting into the content of the show. I had to unsubscribe due to the ads.

    Best sociology podcast
    The interviews, student specials, and literature reviews on selected topics is a great way to stay on top of research, or even dive into a new area of study

    Accessible Academics
    This show turns the names at the top of my school texts into humans. It’s been a fantastic way to learn more about the people working in the field as I begin to consider graduate studies. Hearing the concepts from class discussed expertly in an conversational format makes them feel more accessible. And I love hearing what inspires them!

    Very interesting podcast
    After taking a few college level sociology classes, I was thirsting for more and this podcast has been extremely satisfying for me. The topics are relevant and the interviewees are extremely knowledgeable. The host is fantastic! If you love sociology, then I’d give this a listen.
