I enjoy Reply All and I think Alex's voice is fine. But as I've probably said upthread, PJ talks way too fast, barely articulates his consonants, and is an inveterate up-talker, which makes me crazy.
Any serious broadcaster shouldn't be uptalking to such a degree, it makes you sound like you don't trust the words you're saying.
But, omfg the new guy, his voice actually is almost completely unlistenable, I'm sure his journalism skills are great but how did anyone *ever* think he'd make a good broadcaster with a voice like that?
― Maresn3st, Tuesday, 22 December 2020 23:04 (three months ago) link
Fwiw, I have no problem with the voices of the reply all hosts. I feel the episode about the mystery song is very entertaining even if the whole dramatic arc/search seems a bit fabricated, a bit Rube Goldberg.I have not listened to the 1980 podcast, but I did see Hanif give a memorable poetry feature a year or two back. He’s a good writer and the crowd energy/atmosphere was way more intense then I expected.

Last week I got an email from Sruthi about Reply All’s Test Kitchen series. I had been avoiding listening but once I did I felt gaslit. The truth is RA and specifically PJ and Sruthi contributed to a near identical toxic dynamic at Gimlet. This will be a longer thread, apologies.— Eric Eddings (@eeddings) February 16, 2021

Vogt certainly isn't making excuses, which is a nice change from the way these things usually go. I have to say that as far as toxic workplace blowups go, this one feels pretty minor. They didn't support a union drive and also they were aloof from the rest of the Gimlet crowd — not great behavior, but also sort of what you'd expect from the franchise players? Reply All is the main reason Gimlet exists in the first place. I don't really think this is on par with Bon Appetit or other such examples. Seems more like normal office politics to me.

I only just discovered Reply All possibly from a comment in a thread here. But I thought this food biz mini series was a 4 parter with a specific host before a return to usual set up. Is that a cover up for a rearrangement or something?
Enjoying it so far. Must listen back through some of the older episodes.
Just listened to a couple of the Al Franken podcasts too. Sounds pretty rational so hope I'm not missing anything.
Still listening to a load of others including MSNBC stuff cos it's easier than dlding video. Pod Save stuff. Daily Beans and the new offshoot with Andrew Torrez Cleanup On Aisle 45. Torrez's weekly legal show Opening Arguments and Serious Inquiries Only.Plus less frequently broadcast things like All Killa No Filla where 2 Northern working class girls talk about daily life and foibles and then serial killers. Your Queer Story which is amusing if you can take the hosts which I guess is part and parcel of the package. I don't like their bigging up Leo Varadker though since I could really do with him disappearing altogether. Myths Baby where a Canadian feminist talks about Greek Myths and the surrounding patriarchy. This Podcast Will Kill You where 2 medically trained women talk about the history of specific diseases. They come up with a fitting cocktail for each one.The Vaginas Museum which seems to be back with some new podcasts after laying off for a lot of the lockdown.99% which is about design issues and tends to be really good.America Dissected which is about American medical issues.My Momma Told Me humorous broadcast about black conspiracy theories.Yo,Is this Racist humorous addressing issues pertaining to discrimination, white privilege and fun things.Worst Year Ever which is an alternative news based show.Lexicon Valley about the evolution of language and Broadway show songs.Moby Dick Energy where a feminist comedian goes through the Melville book frequently exploring the Queer undercurrents.Still working through the History Of The English language which has been fascinating.
And several others I may come back to.

They're now saying that the Bon Appétit 4-parter was already intended to be Sruthi's exit piece before she moved on to other things, but now the other two episodes are in limbo and the other things Sruthi's moving on to may or may not be with Gimlet. And PJ Vogt is not just taking a break, he's gone.
As an early listener to The Nod, I wasn't surprised by anything in Eric Eddings' twitter thread, because he and Brittany Luse both have sort of danced around the raw deal they got from Gimlet ever since they parted ways with the company, but neither had ever been as forthcoming as this.
Sad Reply All as we knew it is over, because I legit enjoyed that podcast for a long time, but it's hard to imagine it ever working as well with different hosts or with Alex and someone/anyone else.
Gimlet does host two of my favorite science-adjacent shows (Science Vs. and Every Little Thing), but they've always seemed like the NBC of the podcast world. No guiding identity, quick to cancel/cut loose shows. Maybe a reorganization will be beneficial, maybe not.

There's not been much of note episode-wise in the last year of Reply All and it seems that these days their pods all start the same way, with lots of pauses/sighing and morose talk about how shitty the world is, it's kinda enervating to listen to.
I don't dig Dzotsi's voice either, so I'm glad he's not been on much.
