Description
When Emily Gellis hears rumors of people suffering horrible side effects from a trendy diet she springs into action. Armed with over a hundred thousand Instagram followers, Emily launches a social media crusade to expose F-Factor and its founder, Tanya Zuckerbrot. It’s the start of a feud that will attract trolls, lawyers, and, eventually, national media all because of fiber. From Wondery, this is a story about wealth, wellness, and influence narrated by Casey Wilson.
Quick Comment
I picked this episode as I know two people who said they were listening to it. This somewhat builds up expectations. After all, this is a WONDERY show, so I'm expecting this episode to knock me out of my chair (and that may not be fair).
What I Liked About This Episode
The production and soundscaping was off the charts.
What I Thought Could Use Some Polishing
The pace was a bit slow for me, and what are the stakes? So these two people hate each other, is there a cage match to the death? Why do I care about these people?

Sounds Like a Cult
Description
Podcast Rodeo Show: Reviews and First Impressions of Your Podcast A podcast about the modern-day “cults” we all follow. Hosts Isa Medina and Amanda Montell ask the culty questions we’re all wondering... Do you think SoulCycle is a cult? What about Elon Musk stans? Or the Royal Family? What about spiritual influencers? Is Instagram itself a cult? We’re Sounds Like A Cult, a podcast that analyzes a different zeitgeisty group every week to try and answer the big question: This group sounds like a cult, but is it really? And if so, how bad is it?
What I Liked About This Episode
The intro using listener voices was different and it sets the stage of "Do I agree or disagree with these people?." I did like that once all the housekeeping was done, you got right to the point and answered the questions I was thinking.
What I Thought Could Use Some Polishing
Isa needs some mic technique training. Get a pop filter or windscreen. Three advertisements (4 if you count patreon) had me right on the edge of pressing next. In the end I wanted to hear more.

What I Liked About This Episode
You do a good job of talking to one person, and you get right to the point. You're doing a good job of sounding like a friend on the other side of the table who is just explaining things to me.
You had done some good research, and you had links in your show notes.
I liked the island story as it triggered the theater of the mind (which is going to be needed a lot when you talk numbers the theater of the mind gets cloudy quickly).
What I Thought Could Use Some Polishing
During the Gold discussion, I got bored and wondered if we needed all this detail. It's hard to make finance "fun" and "engaging."
