“I started listening to the podcast 1 year ago when my Biology teacher came around the corner with the topic of Evolution. Listened to every episode since, and caught up within 4 months, as I find the narrative inspirative, enjoyable and, first and foremost, likeable. I’ve gained proper knowledge...”Read full review »

“This is the kind of stuff that is a real treasure to find. Educational, but entertaining. Easy to understand and relevant for people just learning about, or even those that have studied evolution for years. Well done Rick!!”

“I think I did not miss any of the episodes of this fine series of episodes about evolution in the broadest sense. Not only deals the podcast with the various aspects of the theory of evolution, but also to all the people, who playeda role in it. The last episode, about Mary Anning, was brilliant...”Read full review »

“I'd love to give this podcast 5 stars, but the presenter's grammar goofs cannot be swept under the rug. The main complaint I have is that he says things like "to you and I" and "involving you and I." Apparently, some misguided teacher convinced him to banish "me" from his vocabulary! News...”Read full review »

“.. but I do enjoy this podcast. Coste is not an evolutionary biologist—just a regular guy doing his best to explain things to other regular persons in terms that are easily understood. As an evolutionary biologist I find a maddening stumble from time to time, but in my car no one can hear me...”Read full review »
