“It doesn’t matter how much you know if you cannot explain it to people in a way they can understand. Paul does an incredible job of explaining Astrophysics, whether your a novice or veteran. Thank you for taking the time to make this podcast!”

“Paul’s ability to communicate the essence of whatever he chooses to discuss is unparalleled. His love and understanding for his subject matter is irresistible. One of the very few podcasts where I listen to recent and really old episodes regularly and repeatedly.
Thank you very much, Paul!!”

“I really love the show, the energy, the voice and the topics. Paul does such a great job making complicated topics understandable for lay-people. I’ve been having a blast the last weeks going through the back-catalogue and just listening. If you are the least bit curious about all things...”Read full review »

“Paul M. Sutter has an amazing way of explaining difficult topics through analogies and thought experiments that most science communicators cant match. He goes through each possibility and plays with the idea of how and why certain theories or ideas can or can’t exist and then plays it the other...”Read full review »

“Interesting and well explained, but unfortunately Mr. Sutter’s communication style is to repeat himself and repeat himself and repeat himself and repeat himself interminably throughout the podcast. Is he paid by the word, or is he of the opinion that why should he limit himself to ten words when...”Read full review »

“I listen to a lot of different science channels/podcasts/etc and have loved Paul for YEARS. What I especially appreciate is his ability to use effective, comprehensible metaphor to explain the otherwise impossible. (See the episode on particles as ice cream) I can’t overstate how excellent he is...”Read full review »

“I’m currently working my way through all of the episodes on my drive to work and back. I really love the dive into detail and the sheer enthusiasm that Paul brings, and the way he gets across sometimes complex ideas is exceptional. This is the Rolls Royce of science pod casts.”

“This is the show to listen for everything about space!
If what you want is out of this world but scientifically based this is your show.

“I appreciated that the author knows his stuff very well and it’s all well researched but I found these podcasts very slow going, and very often a small point is repeated and laboured over and over to the point of coming across as patronising and dumbed down. Clearly I’m a minority though.”

“But my first listen was a fifteen minute introduction to a show that only last twenty-five more minutes, and the entire introduction sounded I was about to sold a religion.
In the end… great content. Presentation… not so much.”
