“This was my favourite podcast. Really interesting and funny. I had to stifle out loud laughter multiple times while walking / bussing to work and listening to this podcast. Please come back with some new episodes!”

“Entertainingly funny way to ingest scientific topics. However, the laddishness went way overboard when the episode about the worst pain in the world included no examples of women & anesthesia for childbirth was fleetingly mentioned once. Generally, however, the hosts are much more sensitive...”Read full review »

“Probably my all time favourite podcast! They find the perfect balance between having a few laughs and really digging deep into the science, in a comprehensive way, with a great expert each week. Would definitely recommend to all!”

“Love this podcast! Such a fun way to learn, & the topics are so varied & interesting. Love the good-natured bants between Rick & Michael. Great combo to have hosts that know their stuff (or admit it when they don’t!) & are funny too!”

“Two of my favorite things are learning and laughing. I do both every week with these two. The perfect combination of high minded and low brow. I have a Masters degree but I’m not a master of anything. I feel your pain, Dr. Michael Brooks!!!”

“If you liked the content of your biology class, but hated your biology teacher who was phoning it in, this show is for you. Rick and Michael are v easy-going as they help us make sense of the world around us. Great listen that makes me smile.”

“These podcasts are akin to joining a scientific lads night out! Rick Edwards is like a puppy with a bone wagging its tail excitedly with each topic, while (Dr) Michael Brooks (PhD) keeps him vaguely on the scientific leash. Rick’s banter is endearingly open in the same way that small children...”Read full review »

“I came across this podcast via a promo on the (also excellent) Luke & Pete show. Not something I would have choosen to listen to without the nudge provided, but grateful for the shameless plug.
It’s entertaining, educational, relevant and welcomingly different.”

“Makes a bloody change not to be spoken down to! I enjoy the banter, it's not too bloke-ish. If you (and you probably don't) need questions riddle me this - Human DNA was first sequenced over 20 years ago so why haven't we all got personal health plans by now? xx”Read full review »

“Great pod if you like science but arent a scientist. Reminds me a lot of The Science Of Discworld. Stak pods never disappoint. Brilliant, funny and well researched. Also listen to Abroad in Japan and Jackie the Ripper!
Please keep up the good work guys!”
