“This show is fascinating. If you’re the kind of person who reads show notes and clicks on the links or looks up articles about things mentioned in the news or tells coworkers about a cool fact you just heard, LLE! is for you. In each episode, the hosts take turns teaching each other about random and esoteric topics, and their curiosity and excitement are palpable. As scientists, they always thoroughly research their topics and provide references to the research, while at the same time acknowledging what is unknown—whether in the larger scientific community or just because they themselves don’t have the answer. There is so much reinforcement of good scientific principles throughout the show, from questioning the foundation of assertions and avoiding absolutes to investigating biases and encouraging feedback. There is so much more in the universe than can be learned in a single lifetime, but these mini-lessons from Caroline, Ella, and Tom are a delightful way to expand your brain and nurture your learner’s spirit.”
