“What a ridiculous episode. The fact that this is named “Scientific” anything belongs on South Park.”

“Who asked for a multiple week series on sexuality? No other topic has had so many episodes in a row, with no other subject to break it up. I wasn’t even interested in one episode on the topic, but this is ridiculous. I’m unsubscribing until it’s over.
The vast majority of the positive ratings...”Read full review »

“This version of the former 60 Second Science borders on banal. It use to give science not given on the 6 o’clock news. It used to inspire.”

“I have been listening to this podcast for the last few years and truly enjoyed the little snippets of information they pack into each episode. In today’s “Your Health Quickly” Episode, I was disappointed to hear the name calling targeting two people as “anti-vaxxers”. Without actually researching...”Read full review »

“This is a fantastic podcast with insightful science, good editing and thoughtful subjects. But, there is one crew that is unbearable: Tanya and Josh, the senior health editors are THE worst voice actors in the history of podcasts. Replacing them with an over-zealous and pedantic 4th grade...”Read full review »

“Science in 60 seconds is exactly what is wrong with Scientific American lately. If you want fast food science just turn on the Discovery channel or pick up a copy of Popular Science magazine. The beauty of a podcast is that you can go as deep into the subject matter as needed and not be...”Read full review »

“I like the information and the hosts. My main dislike of this podcast is it used t be super short and concise, a nice way to stay up to date on scientific things. Now it’s every other day and 10-15 min podcasts. I May stop listening regularly for this reason. Too frequent and too long for what...”Read full review »

“In the “Thunderous Goose” episode, Flora states that humans have been in Australia for 50,000 years, but in reality, the evidence shows they have been living there for about 125,000 years and in North America for at least 23,000 years. Cancel this woebegotten purveyor of misinformation! Flora...”Read full review »

“I presume that as most all of the podcasts sound the same it's now the SA house style. I didn't like it when Covid Quickly did it and I still don't. As savingwhales says elsewhere on this page, the information in the 'cast is usually interesting, but, oh, the awful scripted...”Read full review »

“Sorry, I really wanted to stick with this? but I can’t spend a second more listening to people speaking on the subject of science? using an upspeak accent? It grates? I want to hear presenters to talk to me? not sound as if every line is a question?”

Also, the injection of politics into science is completely inappropriate, especially when the politics is so...”Read full review »

“I don’t like to change the format. They’re going for cuteness. Silly Hass happiness. Talking down to the listener. Too much giggling. Especially in this last episode about animal communication. I’ll keep listening. But hope it finds a balance between what it was, and what it has become.”

“Seems to be more interested in saying, “Isn’t science fun!”, than imparting science.

“I finally unsubscribed to this podcast after many years. Very poor audio engineering. Guest audio is often too soft or outright unintelligible - some of that stems from choosing to have foreign guests with a heavy accent talk. Also too much liberal bias. It's gotten better since a...”Read full review »
