“The actual content of the show is very good and informative. I particularly enjoyed the lengthy series on quantum mechanics. However, I have to take some points off because while the host claims to be very supportive of and invested in empirical science, every episode, he talks about the benefits of BetterHelp, despite the fact that all of the empirical evidence available shows that people who use BetterHelp and similar services show no mental health improvements over those who don’t. (And it certainly doesn’t even remotely compare to actual mental health therapy, of which I am a huge proponent.) I would prefer a science podcast that doesn’t support itself by promoting what is essentially digital-age snake oil.”
