“Threshold changed how I saw the world.”
- Dan Lombardi’s Review on Apple Podcasts
“Essential Listening”
“Not only is this podcast hopeful, engaging, thought-provoking, and gorgeously produced, it is also urgently needed. As noted in the show, we need unprecedented action to get us through unprecedented times, and Threshold offers vital insights to help us meet the moment we find ourselves in now, teetering on the brink of climate disaster. It does all this without allowing listeners to slip into the kind of despair we often feel when confronted with hard truths about the state of our planet. Masterful work by Amy and everyone on the Threshold team. I can’t wait to see what they do next.”

“An all-time favorite”
“The Threshold team does an incredible job reporting and storytelling—not only do they pick great issues to dive into, but they look at things from multiple perspectives, they embrace rather than shy away from complexity, and they bring us listeners on a journey to where ecology and humanity intersect in a way that is so refreshing and needed.”

“The Best!”
“This is a fantastic podcast. I love how they spend an entire season on one topic. In an age where my attention is getting fragmented across many different info-bytes I am truly appreciative that storytelling still exists. I am halfway through the first season and cant stop listening. Highly recommend!”
