Could do without the stiff scripted humor

“The information is useful even if sometimes the host’s clear lack of expertise means that guests have to circumnavigate her questions to get to their answers. The biggest drawback, however, is the scripted attempt at humor. It’s stiff, it’s not at all funny, and often it’s just plain distracting. Humor can be great in a podcast, but the poor attempt in this podcast makes it regularly difficult to get through the episodes. Would give the podcast 4 or even 5 stars without the turgid comic fail.”

“This podcast is fine but feels a bit phoned in. I like FiveThirtyEight for its analytical and sometimes contrarian (but always data-backed) takes. This podcast doesn’t have that feel. Instead, the episodes often cover covid topics that you can read in any mainstream newspaper.”

“I enjoy this podcast but find it sometimes has a less data oriented feel than I’d expect from a 538 production, including anecdotal, personal elements I don’t generally find valuable.”
