“Please consider not using the word “like” in every sentence. It’ll hugely improve the listening experience.”

“After being mutuals for years I unfortunately had to unfollow @hspter due to a tweet in which they said of someone else,
“ ‘Lost her humanity’ is far too generic & kind. Her tweets and behavior are riddled with codependent dynamics, splitting and other signs of a massive personality...”Read full review »

“Used to enjoy but hard to listen to now that Hilary has gone full conspiracy theorist online. She has been posting the most outlandish things on Twitter that makes it hard to take her seriously”

“Sometimes there are great things, but it takes a lot of digging. It’s like listening to friends who sometimes talk about data science related things, but often goes off on tangents that’s hard to follow. Definitely a different rhythm to this podcast.”

“Have to unsubscribe. Listening to Hilary is like gossip at sorority event. Hilary certainly has a great depth of experience...but she strikes me as condescending and snarky. Roger is a balancing and objective force.”

“I subscribed to this Podcast a few months ago looking for some insights to the data science community and topics. What I found was about 10% data science related and 90% on non-related topics. Who eats a steak that's 90% bone? I enjoy listening to Roger and Hilary but enough about social and...”Read full review »

“I like how I can be informed about happenings in data science and data analysis without having to sit down and read something. I like the non-data bits, too - maybe even more than the data parts. I want to be friends in real life with them!”

“If the content were more focused, I could have pushed through Hillary’s use of “like” about 20 times per sentence. However, the content was rambling & thin on data science so I couldn’t make it. After listening to the first episode, I thought I would try the latest episode to see if it had...”Read full review »

The tone is gossipy, and not in a way that is...”Read full review »

“The only data science podcast that educated me and didn’t put me to sleep. It feels like I’m sitting in on a conversation. Not sure why people are so bothered by the speakers use of filler words.

“There are generally about 10-15 minutes of great discussion in each episode, but the rest of it I could do without. I find the banter annoying and I agree that there are too many filler words. That's fine for informal discussions, but if Roger and Hilary listened to each ep after recording, I...”Read full review »
