To-doerHuge number of adsThis is starting to feel like one of those magazines that is almost all ads with a little content thrown in.

sonia_saysA gem! AbsolutelyI love podcasts and lately it feels like I’m being bombarded with political, self help, or murder mysteries. Just found this podcast today, have already listened to two episodes this morning. Can’t wait to listen to them all! Yes, quite a few ads, but everyone needs to make a living. Thank you!

crazycatlady56Great concept but…I have listened to every episode of this show since its debut. It is very well researched and written and is a testament to the people who “stuck to it”. That being said however, the number of ads is really annoying. I stopped listening to the episode about Yellowstone because of the number of ads and I have deleted WRTIY from my roster.

Under.Stargood podcast... but the adsthe podcast is good, well edited, good sound design, often inspiring, sometimes underwhelming (Fritz Pollard episode as an example) but my real problem is the ads... listening to a thin woman wax poetic about how someone needs "help reaching their weight loss goals" on a rejection podcast... every episode. wildly missing the mark on your audience, folks.

AB MouseVery InspiringA podcast that gives hope through stories of struggle and overcoming. It’s inspiring to know even the most successful people dealt with very real, relatable challenges in getting where they did. The voices and delivery are great. Listening to these stories is comforting when you need encouragement. Thank you.

CarlyB222Fav podcastI absolutely love this podcast. The way the stories unravel is so well done. I love the background music/effects and the specific details chosen to tell each story. I found this podcast because I also love Terry’s podcast about advertising, Under the Influence. Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree! Thank you for such a great podcast!

Ph2014mauiDr RidleyThank you for sharing Dr Ridley's story. it is essential that we hear it and wonder what else we dismiss. What othe innovations and progress are now being dismissed because thy upset us somehow?

RAHClaireMixed reviewAlthough interesting topics, the podcast moves quite slowly and the narrator is annoying. She speaks too slowly and her elocution is laboured and tedious. I can’t help hear her father’s influence. I’d listen to it if there was another narrator or if she started speaking more naturally.

Lighting Lucario 34Fantastic podcast!This podcast is inspirational. I have a request for a future episode. Please add Leonard Cohen, Canada’s very own poet laureate, to your list of future episodes, if he isn’t already on there or if the episode isn't already in production.

hdbehenzhnsjsjnsUplifting inspiration but hate the mansplainingLove the stories, thanks for making them! However i’m so annoyed by the end when Terry comes in and concludes/repeats everything in identical language. Yes, I heard that already!

NutsfornutritionLove this inspiring podLove the stories on this podcast and contrary to other reviews, the hosts voice has never even crossed my mind as being bothersome.
-
WW app loverFantastic podcastI love how the stories are presented. I’m amazed at the endurance of the human spirit. It inspires me to never give up! PS… I would love to hear an episode featuring MR. Bean. I have heard that he has faced a lot of rejection.
-
OKHicksterInspiring Success StoriesI love this podcast! Whenever I’m feeling discouraged about my path in life, I listen to an episode of this for a bit of inspiration! And I enjoy the host’s delivery - her voice is easy to listen to.

Originale1Is this a grade school show?The podcasted sounds and speaks like a child . Can’t bear it

Yachtsman3Great content, scratchy voiceMy wife and I have loved UTI (Under The Influence) from the moment it launched on CBC, and WRTIY is a worthy successor. Interesting subjects, stories that grip, and well researched and produced. The only fly in the ointment is Sidney’s voice. Like so many young women of her generation, she speaks with a lot of vocal fry and doesn’t manage her pitch well. My wife is a speech-language pathologist, and calls it “glottal fry” - not a great voice to listen to. Fortunately, it is treatable/coachable. Sidney - listen to one of Sheila Rogers’s or Eleanor Wachtel’s recorded voice, and then to your own. Big difference. With a voice coach, you could be so much more enjoyable to listen to!

DaveemeryGot to remember to never give upI love this podcast and appreciate the people and brands we know even more- knowing the back stories.

Pickle sandwich69Cool showHonestly better than under the influence but some topics were more interesting than others
-
DrewaustinA tad too much vocal fry, but great writing and researchI like so much about the show, but the host uses a lot of vocal fry and I find it a bit too distracting and grating. I’m not actually opposed to vocal fry per-se, but for some reason a bit more of a “Radio Presenter” tone would help bring me into the storytelling a bit more.
-
whoisnbergCould not get through 5 mins…I really wanted like this podcast. The topics seem very interesting, but I found the host’s high-pitched voice and vocal fry too distracting. What a shame.

Team WheelsUnfortunately, not for meI found this podcast, as I’m subscribed to Under The Influence, and they played part 1 of John Hamm’s story. I loved Mad Men, so sought out part 2. I thought it was great. Then I tried to listen to an older episode, and thought the host hadn’t found her voice yet. I then skipped ahead and listened to a few episodes and had to stop. I’m not sure I understand why her father needs to summarize the episodes. The episodes are not very long, so I don’t understand why a five minute summary is required, especially by someone else. I listen to a lot of podcasts and haven’t come across this set up before. Maybe two people chat at the end, or something, but to just gave him repeat everything she’s said…. It feels so, ugh, patriarchal. Let the woman do her thing. Someone else mentioned nepotism, and maybe this is what clouds their judgement on how they handle this? I’m a long time fan of Terry’s, but this has really soured me.

Lena la louveWeekly dose of optimism and resilienceBrilliant concept, superbe execution and a wonderful weekly listen. Sidney clearly invest a lot of time and energy in researching each episode to give it a personal, compelling and informative take. Thank you so much making this podcast: each episode is a dose of courage and renewed optimism to never, ever give up. The most underrated piece of self care you can give yourself!

sam nickolsinSuperbSooo good

Tim HillsonGreatness takes workSuperb show! Gives the stories of ultra talented people who had to work extra hard before their talent was recognized. Lots of people you have heard of like Lady Gaga, Kiss, and many others you haven't. Pretty inspiring, makes you want to try your passion out instead of waiting for it to happen.

JorgeObr👍Great podcast!

weewilliestylzLameThis is not really about rejection. It’s about eventual success. Boring.
-
tootseeeeSo, so interesting!!!!Just love this podcast and eagerly wait for new ones to come out. Love the topics, the people you’ve picked, and the commentary. So many lessons to learn. Very inspirational. Every struggling entrepreneur, artist etc. should listen to this. I think I’ve listened to them all.

2120 nekoSidney rocks!!!All of these stories inspire. Never, ever, give up!!! Are words we all need to hear - always

abraver18Love this podcast. Very upliftingI work in the film industry out of Vancouver, BC as a member of the camera department and I can appreciate the success stories that you talk about every week. I also understand myself what rejection feels like and the importance of never giving up on one’s passion to succeed in this ever competitive world. Your podcast has provided inspiration and insightful history. I find it very uplifting. A way to turn my day around. Looking forward to season four! Love the Dyson story Adam

Two cents more than beforeThis show is so inspiring!I love how each show inspires me to keep trying - in everything I do!
-
CynRG9078Wonderful Storytelling PodcastThe stories of famous people, and the not so famous people behind famous inventions, are told in such a captivating way. Not only interesting but affirming that the journey of our lives is not always straight forward or easy. This podcast is one of my very favourites!
-
GunnarB!😃Great stories. Always interesting to learn of the journeys these people take.
-
Michael MacGillivrayDef good pod, go Sidney!Liked the South Park and Jay-Z pods! 🤟
-
JPfromNSFantastic!!I’ve read and listened to Terry O’Reilly’s lessons on marketing for many years - and continue to enjoy the depth of detail, relevance of its lesson, and humour. I do notice more ads this season; the pods seem shorter 😒
-
Aunty M.Inspiring!This show is so well done and highly inspiring! I love the format and topics.

Yaya HusbandJames DysonHaving listened to numerous informative Rejection podcasts the one on James Dyson was mythical. I know of no one personally or through the media who has persevered through rejection and disappointment like Dyson has managed to do. Yet he continued through a believe in yourself system precious few of the 7 billion plus inhabitants of this biosphere have ever witnessed. Who but Dyson could continue to build thousands and thousands of prototypes in an unheated shed to ultimately perfect his dual cyclone vacuum system. If you are experiencing a dark or unsupportive day to your ideas or believe in yourself system take solace in knowing this is a well worn path by many a successful individual who just…didn’t…give…up. Like James Dyson.

GRPBNLSo Interesting !!!Learning how the prolific Stephen King, was rejected in the beginning yet due to his perseverance and strong support of his wife , succeeded beyond his early imagination. Great bit of information to learn about. Thank You.

flaneur88new favouritethis podcast has become my new favourite. i love the way the story unfolds. i appreciate the closing observations and ‘thought points’
-
Wayne katLike dad like daughterListened to breaking bad, a wonderful insight into rejection and success. However much of the tone, message delivery is very much Terry. It sounded so much I am picturing Terry's voice is made into a female voice. I really wish Sydney finds her style and highlights her own unique delivery. Good background music.
-
JuIiet C.Luv my new favourite podLearning so many things I never knew about the people and companies I could only ever imagine being secessfull. It’s so surprising to find out about their pasts and when they were rejected, of course!
-
Fotogeek4Never. Ever. Give. UpIf this is the only message one gets from the podcast, it is plenty of message. If you don’t believe in yourself, how can you expect others to? To call this podcast “inspirational” would be an understatement. Keep up the good work!
-
katebarazzLove the show. Cringe every single episode tho..I love the show and I think that Sidney does a terrific job. I really wish though, that they would rethink having her dad a.k.a. the old white guy come in and mansplain the lessons/takeaways from the episode to us … why can’t be Sidney that tells us what the takeaways are? Bugs me every time.
