Love Letters

Love Letters is a popular relationship advice podcast from The Boston Globe, hosted by Meredith Goldstein, who has been writing the beloved Love Letters advice column since 2009. Each episode brings the column's signature blend of wisdom, empathy, and real-world perspective to the podcast format, tackling listener questions about dating, marriage, breakups, family dynamics, and everything in between. Meredith's approach is refreshingly honest and non-judgmental — she treats every question with genuine care while also not shying away from delivering tough love when the situation calls for it. The show features a mix of solo advice episodes, conversations with relationship experts and therapists, and special episodes where listeners share updates on how their situations evolved after receiving advice. What makes Love Letters special is its deep connection to real people and real stories — every episode is grounded in the actual experiences of listeners navigating the messy complexities of modern love. From questions about whether to stay or go, to navigating in-law conflicts, to figuring out how to date after divorce, the podcast covers the full range of romantic challenges with intelligence, heart, and a healthy sense of humor.
