Love the playful approach to discussing solutions interspersed with just the nerdiest references and jokes. De-lightful.

I really like the chemistry between the two hosts, from listening the conversation my mind creates this imagery of seeing people from two hundred years ago sitting across each other at the coffee table laughing and chatting about new ideas and weird stuff(perhaps discovering the world) If you are patient enough to really listen to what they have to say, you will find that they are offering good advices for the society and not just advices, answers/solutions on how to do it too. Throughout their conversations, I can feel they hope for a better world. I feel this positive vibe from them and I can feel they are very happy, perhaps happy to talk with each other, or happy to discover a new idea, and sometimes I laugh along with them at their jokes. It feels great. I usually listen to their podcast while cooking lunch, they are great cooking companions.

It's rare that you come across raw, unfiltered ideas for how to improve society from a thinker like Adam Braus. I had the pleasure of reporting to Braus for 2.5 years - first as a student, later as a TA - when I was a student at the Dominican University of California. He is a tried and true strategist, and I enjoyed watching from afar as he blended evidence-based reasoning, research, and lived experiences in order to design an educational environment that provided me with a full-rounded view of the world. Outside of class, I look forward to seeing the direction his podcast will take, as I know he thinks broadly yet practically about systemic issues such as healthcare, privacy, climate change, and more. If you’re looking for a podcast to expose yourself to new ideas, SfM earns my highest recommendation!
