Finally! A Show

5.0/5

Critic Rating

Come hang out in a different woman’s life on each episode. It’s everything you love about reality TV,  just on the radio, with 100% more reality. Just women sharing their actual morning to night — days that are anything but ordinary. Curated and crafted by Jane Marie (The Dream, This American Life, Michelle Obama: The Light Podcast) and Joanna Solotaroff (TeamCoco, 2 Dope Queens, Scattered). Try on some other lives while you do whatever you want with yours.


Critic Reviews

Score: 5

Eliana Dockterman • Time Nov 18, 2024

"The host-less format is a risk—the episodes don't have a particular unifying theme or message about womanhood. But we are safe in the hands of two podcasting veterans ...The resulting show celebrates women—whatever their specific experiences may be."

Nicholas Quah • Vulture Jul 1, 2024

"The production pretty much delivers on the promise...the series further strengthens its diaristic approach by cutting out the framing device of a host entirely...and quietly celebrating the very simple fact of their existence."

Hannah Verdier • The Guardian Apr 4, 2024

"...it delivers like reality TV for the ears...Each episode is a 30-minute insight to a different life..."

Devin • Podstack Mar 21, 2024

"It will make you feel like you’re just casually tagging along to get a glimpse into someone’s day and life. But the fact that it does so in an engaging way, means there’s nothing casual about the production of it. It’s both plain and experimental in style and subject matter."

Lauren Passell • Podcast The Newsletter Mar 18, 2024

"...well-produced, unfiltery pieces...Jane Marie always does things a little differently so I’m wondering where she’ll take us. The first two women were lovely, maybe we’ll get some unlikeable ones?"

Fiona Sturges • Financial Times Mar 17, 2024

"...the series doesn’t idealise womanhood or tell women they could be doing better. It’s a series of sweet, funny and fascinating self-portraits, and a space for women from all walks of life to tell their story so far."
