Amy I really want this information, but PLEASE loose the annoying doodly-doot under your voice. Maddening…..why? Some of the best climate journalism around ruined by “sound design”. Distracting and so annoying it often feels like the sounds are the show and the talkers are the background. Today during a clip of Walter Cronkite from the 80s I removed my EarPods to listen for a chopper over the house, but no, an obnoxious sound was playing under his voice. Why do you feel the need to augment such great reporting this way? I have deleted podcasts part way through as it is so annoying. Please stop!

This is a great podcast, but there is a threshold where I will listen to ads and where the podcast is the ad and my brain says “no, absolutely not”. This one crosses the threshold.

The reporting delivered by Amy and all the shows contributors is exceptional. This show delivers for the planet and people, and I believe the world would be a much better place if everyone heard what they had to share, then acted.

I’ve been a big fan of Drilled for a few years, and I’m thrilled by this spin-off. While Drilled can be a bit overwhelming (though certainly interesting), it’s great to learn more about a possible shift in perspective that could provide a positive path forward.

I'm so grateful for the podcasts in the Critical Frequency network. Content varies but what you always get is high quality story telling that helps us to learn more about our world than watching cable news. "Damages" brings stories of how environmental lawsuits came to be filed, their intersectional histories (most of which we didn't learn about in school), and where they are in the court process. Amy always centers those living the story in their own words, and, unlike many high profile podcasts, fact checks every single word that you hear. The data behind our climate crisis hasn't moved people to get involved. Story telling moves people to action. Essential listening.

As a Hot Take and Drilled podcast subscriber, I was excited (although baffled by how she does it) to see Amy Westervelt producing another show. As always, it is excellent — important information communicated in a way that’s easy to understand that lifts up the voices of those most impacted by environmental injustices.
