There's nothing unique about this podcast other than the bumper music. It's the same authors interviewed everywhere else. The host's viewpoints are just a saccharine blend of trendy academic ideas in psychology--most of which won't stand up over time--sprinkled with standard American leftwing politics. Boring and gutless.
