“Really loved the first two seasons. Perhaps my most favourite podcast of all time. But, the last season sucked. So sadly can only give 3 stars overall, which robs the first two seasons as they are 100% 5 stars! Please Alan and Amanda could you make another season?”

“For a long time I’ve been wanting to hear the voices of indigenous astronomers speak out about Mauna Kea and you all did it. Also liked hearing the stories of how deal with colonial culture in the STEM journey.”

“EDIT: The first two seasons are phenomenal! So many learnings, but sadly the latest season is more of a discussion about politics rather than science. I get that things evolve, but this season should have been a completely new podcast so as to keep the original in tact.
Original review: Such...”Read full review »

“Sorry but the latest season is more about politics than the cosmos.
Used to be astounding in the first few seasons to hear the universe layed out in a beautiful fashion.
Just hope they get back to the core of the show and try to induce that vertigo again!”

“Much preferred old hosts and subjects. It’s way too political now. I just want to zone out and listen to some interesting astronomy topics.”

“Can we get Alan and Amanda back, I don’t remember them complaining about the advances in technology whilst taking full advantage of the same technology. If Corey stops calling everything best friend of the show and Karlie stops trying to sound like she is from absolutely fabulous”

“When I think back to cosmic vertigo I have a great fondness for learning. Now I feel like I’m listening to gossiping high schooler who only know tiktok. Like omg.
I couldn’t make it through the first full podcast without having to stop and listen to something else. Maybe I’ll try again in...”Read full review »

“This was a fantastic podcast for those with an interest in astronomy with just the right mix of science and fun to make it into my "must listen to" list. That was for the first two seasons with Alan and Amanda.
Season 3 makes my ears hurt. The hosts may be trying to appeal to a teen or...”Read full review »

“A definite recommend. In this ABC (Australian Broadcasting Commission) Radio National production, two astronomers pick a space related topic each week to delve into. They do a great job of conveying the mind-blowing wonder of the universe.”

“Bit late to the show having only stared listening in the last could of days but have gone through all of season 1. Thanks for all the effort the 3 of you have put in. Would love to see a YouTube version where we could see some visuals of what you are talking about. Keep up the great work.”

“I like the hosts and the information they provide. However, the production and editing is annoying and gets in the way. Its like someone trying to explain something complicated to you while you are at a construction site. The formula is popular as proven by radiolab but it just isn't for me.”Read full review »

It is a waste of time. The presenters act like children, constantly giggling, making jokes and wasting time. The actual content of the show is just a few minutes per episode.
There are much better podcasts on this topic.

“An unfocused, disjointed rambling string of astro-trivia with no discernible goal or target audience and with a presenter who never saw an "a" or "an" she couldn't replace with a "this" instead. The incessant silly giggling makes it unlistenable.”
