  • "Nobody Reads Anymore" w/Natalie Ponte
    2026/07/16

    This week, we're joined by writer, editor, and audiobook evangelist Natalie Ponte ask a simple question:

    Is reading really disappearing, or are we simply redefining what it means to be a reader?

    Because if someone devours audiobooks while folding laundry, inhales graphic novels in a weekend, or spends hours reading newsletters, essays, and long-form journalism... are they really not a reader?

    Maybe (just maybe) there are people out there clinging to a very specific and outdated idea of what reading is supposed to look like ;)

  • "Let Them: Round II" | Mel Robbins (Season Wrap)
    2026/05/12

    “Let Them” Round II / Mel Robbins

    In this episode, we close out our guru series by circling back to the origin story: Mel Robbins and the “Let Them” phenomenon; specifically, we get into domain “leakage” and the uncomfortable truth about expertise that travels well.

    We also recap patterns we’ve charted over the course of these episodes, a few things became hard to ignore:

    The reality is, that we help construct gurus as much as we consume them.

  • “We can do hard things” | Glennon Doyle
    2026/05/05

    “We can do hard things.” Cute. Catchy. But somewhere along the way, it shape-shifted from a comforting reminder into a borderline threat.

    This conversation starts with Glennon Doyle’s cultural footprint: her phrase, her storytelling style, and why her work landed so strongly in a moment when everyone was already maxed out. From here, Erica and Erin explore how their definition of “hard things” has evolved to include something less celebrated: ease.

    And as we approach the end of our “All the Gurus” series, this conversation also examines what we want and need from the people we allow to shape us.
