Tex MechanicaThe bell sound needs to goI love the body of the work, but the bell sound is extremely harsh and disrupting. I hope Lynn will reconsider this choice. I’ll get my takeaways somewhere else until then.

a Proud MonkeyBoring and dryThe host brings nothing to the table. My takeaway is that she lacks awareness of her audience.

Max9366Favorite podcast3 Takeaways is an excellent podcast that covers a wide range of interesting topics every week. The interviewer is knowledgeable and always prepared with good questions, but she doesn’t feel the need to talk over her guests unlike some others. 5 stars.

I am a bowling ballAmazing Listen!This podcast always has new insight for me to learn and develop new ideas! I listen to it on my morning commute almost everyday!
-
SerenaB128Great podcast, really informative!One of my favorite things about 3 Takeaways is the diversity of business and thought leaders and academics. Each episode is so different from the next but equally as interesting. I love that one week I can learn about how all senses affect taste and the next I can learn about how to stop AI from taking over the world. 3 Takeaways really makes you think and expands your worldview. Would definitely recommend.

nfarahanAmazing podcast, engaging, warm, thoughtfulThree Takeaways with Lynn is an absolute treasure. Really interesting guests, deeply insightful questions, natural conversational tone, and even-handed treatment of the issues. Couldn’t recommend more highly!
-
My very favorite podcastI’m happy this podcast existsThe 3 Takeaways podcast is a consistent delight. I’ve been a regular listener for many months and am not surprised by its popularity. The people interviewed are the crème de la crème in their fields and always (always!) share interesting, topical, useful information. Lynn Thoman asks the right questions, then gets out of the way. Three cheers for 3 Takeaways!
-
GpooleyGreat content and questionsIt’s a pleasure to listen to your podcasts. Great questions in a calm tone.
-
abcsjdicCompelling interviews!Lynn Thoman offers a refreshing format - simple yet mesmerizing. She engages each guest with insightful questions. Surprised more people don’t know about it (yet!). And the length is just right!
-
Zvbxrpl799Sound quality doesn’t match interview qualityThe interviews are informative and to the point, and they would be perfect to assign for classes… I only wish the sound quality was better. Please invest in a good microphone or a recording equipment so the quality of the audio matches the quality of the interviews!
-
robertbob45okA great podcast!The podcast features f ascinating discussions with extremely knowledgeable people. I learned a lot from listening to these podcasts, and strongly recommend them.
-
PDX MJCAmazingGreat questions for big-league interviewees who have fascinating things to say: CNN Chief International Correspondent Clarissa Ward, Monty Python’s John Cleese, Nobel Laureate Daniel Kahneman, ClassPass founder Payal Kadakia, former Prime Minister of Australia Kevin Rudd… the list goes on and on. And all interviewed with thoughtful, insightful questions by Columbia University Professor Lynn Thoman. She asks the questions I wish I had the wit to ask.
-
Bluelion44Superb PodcastWhen you combine fabulous guests with excellent and topical questions, the result is this 5 star podcast. The hostess is knowledgeable and probes deeply rather than acting as a fan/groupie. Great content. Time well spent.
-
margaretmolloyMust listenLynn clearly does her homework. Great questions. Great guests. Great listen. The Goldilocks podcast!
-
JHT_newyorkContent is a differentiatorThe podcast brings in more of the highest-profile speakers (Bill Gates, Larry Summers, etc.) than any other interview-based podcast I have listened to. The structure is both to-the-point, but lets the speaker elaborate on his/her thoughts in a free form style. As someone considering entrepreneurship and in the process of articulating my mission, I find the content to be informative and encouraging.
-
Many TakeawaysAsks the right questionsBy asking the right questions, Lynn Thoman covers a lot of ground over a short period of time, but she never skimps on the details . With fascinating topics and knowledgeable guests, this podcast might be titled 3 Takeaways, but you’ll walk away with far more.
-
Ella Dadoawesome guestsLynn has scored awesome guests for this podcast, it’s fun to see who is interviewed each week
-

Biz PodAwesome Variety of Content!This podcast is awesome for anyone interested in learning from true change-makers in today’s world. The variety of content is my favorite part - no guest is alike!
-
Robert CialdiniDr.Lynn did a superb job of preparing for my interview. Her questions were insightful and allowed me to share what was most important and useful for her audience from the new edition of my book, Influence. Lynn's genuine interest and enthsuiasm for my work was palpable and made our conversation even better.
-
WhomEyEInformative, Entertaining, But…I’ve listened to all the interviews in the 3 Takeaways podcasts series. While the Topics and guest are terrific, the glaring lack of diversity -not a single person of color- is unforgivable. The overwhelming if not all of Lynn’s guests are successful, white, higher academia, left leaning individuals Personally I have nothing against members of the aforementioned groups but I feel like they only served as an echo chamber and self confirmation for Lynn’s biases and interests. I wish there were more critical, dissenting views and opinions to provide the listener with a more comprehensive/balanced point of view - Lynn is very doting and never challenges or offers opposing views to her guests Overall the show is worth listening because it contains more advantageous information and advice than ‘fluff.’
-
Snick1002Too few womenIt’s ridiculous how few women are featured on this podcast, especially since the interviewer is a woman! She’s also a boring interviewer and the episodes feel a little too edited. There’s no personality to it.
-

-

Anonymous444Great PodcastLynn has a fantastic set of speakers on her podcast. The speakers offer very insightful advice and have really interesting stories to tell.

Keep the episodes coming, Lynn!
