“Am about 30 episodes in. Like many podcasts, professionalism increases with time. Presenter may be a lay person but deserves a shout out for the obvious time and energy he puts into this. Incredibly sweeping scope yet Chris keeps it focused and other lay people (like me) are able to access this...”Read full review »

However I do appreciate the, as far as I know, the accurate depiction of current evolutionary theory. As a creationist I should have at least a...”Read full review »

“I’m sorry to be negative - it’s just that I came to question the reliability of this podcast early on. First, the podcast makes several references to Charles Darwin claiming that humans came from monkeys. No, he did not say anything of the kind. Ever. It’s a very uneducated thing to say. And...”Read full review »
