    Ivy Insights

    The Best Advice Show is a podcast that I absolutely adore. It never fails to uplift me and provide the motivation I need, especially during times when I'm feeling down. Each episode is simply brilliant, and I find myself unable to stop listening. In fact, I've gone all the way back to episode one and played them all. The show has become a constant companion for me since I recently moved to Detroit, introducing me to people from around the city and providing valuable insights and approachable wisdom. It always brings a smile to my face, and I highly recommend it.

    One of the best aspects of The Best Advice Show is its short-form nature. Each episode is bite-sized, making it perfect for a quick listen whenever you need a boost. The show manages to find interesting people who offer genuine advice that can be profound, simple, or just plain fun. There's always something for everyone in each episode, making it an excellent addition to your podcast feed. Host Zac is an awesome guy who engages in great conversations and provides useful advice himself.

    The podcast also stands out for its ability to bring together wisdom from different guests, showcasing the collective wisdom of humanity. It reminds us that we all have something valuable to share with others and that by doing so, we make life more joyful, tasty, just, meaningful, and fulfilling. The show is wise, funny, useful, and charming all at once.

    While there are many positive aspects of this podcast, there aren't really any significant negative aspects that come to mind. Perhaps if there was anything worth mentioning as a downside would be that some episodes may not resonate with certain listeners as much as others due to personal preferences or interests. However, given the variety of topics covered and the diverse range of guests featured on the show, it's unlikely that anyone would find themselves completely disinterested in every episode.

    In conclusion, The Best Advice Show is a delightful podcast that brings joy, inspiration, and thought-provoking moments to its listeners. It's a perfect blend of profound insights, practical advice, and lighthearted fun. The short episodes make it easy to incorporate into your daily routine, whether you listen in the morning to start your day on a positive note or at night as you wind down. With its relatable host, diverse guests, and the wisdom shared by each guest, this podcast is definitely worth adding to your playlist.

It's something we can all try next time we're in need of some knowing companionship. It's called...The Cosmic Guest List."Like the night sky itself, My Light, My Destroyer is always expanding. Cassandra Jenkins' third full-length, out July 12 via Dead Oceans, cracks open the promise of reaching the edge of the new with a wider sonic palette than ever before– encompassing guitar-driven indie rock, new age, sophistipop, and jazz. At the center of it all is Jenkins' curiosity towards the quarks and quasars that make up her universe, as she blends field recordings with poetic lyricism that is at turns allusive, humorous, devastating and confessional– an alchemical gesture that further deepens the richness of My Light, My Destroyer's 13 songs." -cassandrajenkins.com/ Help Zak continue making this show by becoming a Best Advice Show Patron @ https://www.patreon.com/bestadviceshow---Call Zak on the advice show hotline @ 844-935-BEST---Share this episode on IG @BestAdviceShow
