    Really great podcast! Just what I was looking for!
    Just found the ASM podcast today and the quality of topics, guests and interview is so needed and well done! Keep up the great work!
  • Vane H
    Great topics and guests.
    Great selection of topics and fantastic guests. I always learn something new. Just feel that sometimes the host’s “questions” are too long; they become a mix of personal opinions and explaining the problems, instead of leading the guest to explain the problems, express their views and answer one or two questions at the time. But overall, love the show.
  • avocet1850

    Eye opening!
    I’ve been trying to make more sustainable choices and being mindful of my purchases as much as I can. This podcast is so nice to learn more about more efforts I can take and efforts others are taking around the world. Being informed it powerful and sometimes can be overwhelming trying to learn a bunch of different topics. This podcast has helped tremendously learning small things I would have never known before & introduced me to products I can’t wait to try. Keep it up☺️

    Marjorie and her incredibly knowledgeable guests shine the brightest of (solar powered) lights on what it means to live an eco-friendly lifestyle! Bold, insightful, and engaging are just a few of the words I’d use to describe the time you’ll spend with them. Thanks for putting out such a superb show Marjorie - keep up the great work!

    Do yourself a favor and Check this out!
    Stumbled upon this podcast recently and have been listening nonstop over the past few days. I love the genuineness of the host and the guest speakers she has on the show. I’ve already received so many great resources and have been inspired to start my own organic garden. Keep on keepin on!

    A Learning Experience
    I've loved listening to this podcast ever since I found it while searching for sustainability and environmental podcasts. Marjorie brings together a great set of guests to weave together stories on sustainability and green living from all walks of life. A must listen podcast!
  • SalamanderDance
    Enjoy the heart of the podcast, but listen critically
    I’m a biologist who was drawn to this podcast because I want to be the change I want to see in the world. I enjoy this podcast, and it fills a gap on sustainability that I craved. Every so often, a host comes on who may be well intentioned but pushes pseudo-science in the name of living a healthy lifestyle. I’m thinking of the lady with no medical background running a for-profit lab that tested bodily metal in hair follicles. She had a few alarming statements. Please be sure to do your due diligence as a listener and fact check things that seem to be sour.
  • Krinirin
    Always learning and finding new ideas!
    I’m so glad that this podcast came back. There are so many new podcasts, websites, books... etc that I have gained from listening to this show! Sometimes the quality of the recording is a little iffy, which can be annoying but I can forgive it. Definitely recommend this one to anyone who is interested in sustainability and getting new ideas about how to live more so!
  • Vivre La Vegan
    Mind and heart inspiration
    I always look forward to the next episode of ASM. Every one of them makes me think twice about my own actions in this world and question the choices I make everyday. Since listening to ASM, I have become vegan, practice yoga, purchase local organic produce, and strive for Zero Waste. I hope this show continues to inspire others as it has and continues to inspire me. Thank You!
