“I used to listen avidly to the BBC Science Podcast. But since they stopped working with Dr. Karl I stopped listening and started listening to Dr. Karl’s Tripple J Science Podcast from Australia”

“The interview with Dr. Fauci is especially good, very objective, well done.”

“The framing and glad-handling of the Fauci interview was inexcusable. Ask the man why he ROUTINELY made up “facts”, switched his positions on masking and vaccination based on public perception, and just generally lied and misrepresented knowledge throughout the pandemic. I unsubscribed from this...”Read full review »

“Love the show. Please do keep up the great work. Perhaps take a look at the latest episode of 20th February, it seems to be a jumble of a new and old episode.”

“Long gone are the days when I would jump on this podcast the moment it was released. The old presenters brought character and humour to the podcast and made it an easy fun listen. I would pick up and retain so much information.
Now it’s very earnest. Lots on the current pandemic (of course) and...”Read full review »

“This programme has recently lost its soul and humour now Dr Karl & Rhod Sharp are no longer presenting, Dr Chris Smith is knowledgable and informative but he comes over as a bit of a humourless ‘know it all’.
All things must end I suppose Goodbye Dr Karl and Happy Retirement Rhod - Live...”Read full review »

“One of the best bio-science podcast/radio programs. There is enough time to explore a subject without the editing that normally leaves only the headline points. It’s good to have time to hear the details without it feeling rushed.”

“Used to really enjoy this show. Listened to the one before Christmas 2019, the fat vs sugar show, and it was so wrong that for me it calls in to question a lot of the other things given as facts on this show. As someone who has nearly completely reversed my high blood pressure (now medication...”Read full review »

“Fantastic podcast and one of my most anticipated regular downloads of the week.
Only criticism is that the episode title is not always reflective of content. Eg. Episodes titled "Dr. Karl: ..." are sometimes regular 5 science episodes that do not feature Dr. Karl at all.”Read full review »

“The moderator thinks that he is so funny, but he should keep most of the jokes to himself. The explanations by the experts are very interesting, but he keeps making stupid comments. It is ok to make a joke a two, three or may be four times during a program, but he must be doing like ten or more.”

“Dr Karl you are awesome but this pommy show is awful! I could only manage a few minutes of listening and there is no life on this show at all. The other guy sounds like he is bored. Big thumbs down guys, fellow aussies stay away because the poms on this will drain you.
TripleJ all the way!”

each show there are several instances where he resorts to checking wikipedia.
it is, however rather funny, in its own ameturish way.”Read full review »
