Presenting: Market Failure (with Scene On Radio)

It’s the knot you can’t untangle - a problem so specific, it makes you feel alone. But what if you could talk to someone who gets it? On Proxy, we find just the person you were looking for, a stranger who's lived something close enough to help you get a little less stuck. It’s not therapy - it’s emotional investigative journalism™️. Yowei Shaw, former co-host of Invisibilia, at your service. If you’re just discovering the show, a good place to begin is Bisexual Wife Guy, Mic Chooses the Wrong Life, or Brian Can’t Stop Fact-Checking His Mother-In-Law.  The team is hard at work investigating another batch of cases, with new episodes publishing in April 2026 🚀 <a href="https://www.proxypodcast.com/">Proxy</a> is an independent podcast, supported mostly by listeners.
