that’s a wild way of saying “homotopy”

This is how you ruin a community, this is how you spawn pseudoscience, this is why we’re failing.

Very good podcast. Interesting topic, attractive speaking and design, simple to digest by listening. And at the end of each episode it will just prompt you more curiosity to read about or to have a topic to be aware of or to talk with friends. Nice podcast if you like science and feel...Read full review »

If you liked an article on Quanta, you should definitely listen to the podcast episode, and vice versa! There's always unique information and has good production with the format of interviews.Read full review »

Never has a magazine made knowledge as accessible as Quanta. Wonderful podcast
MariusBauer via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 06/26/23
Perfect science podcast on a range of biology, maths and physics topics for the washing up or ironing
Cactus-grower via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/24/23
Fairy tales and unscientific mysticism.
RemoteCtrlxo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/21/23
Refreshingly in-depth analysis of the subjects. Much less like a “colour magazine “ : closer to a scientific journal.
Magician 1999 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/14/23
The narrator Susan doesn’t deliver the story to its fullest. Reading word by word with random emphasis all over the places makes listening to her very distracting and uninspired.
NamHLe via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/29/23
Very comprehensive and accurate.
AJ672021 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/18/23
The information is immensely interesting, but the host delivers it like she has absolutely no objective outside of saying the words correctly and sometimes sounds annoyed to be talking at all.
ifuseekae via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/17/23
Great podcast well written and gives stellar overviews of the latest in many topics.
D. Eeznuts via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/17/23
It’s great to have essentially a research paper presentation that is well produced and well cited. And the diversity of the fields also helps me understand what the hot topics in other fields are. Great stuff , can’t believe this is all free !
Cosmic401 via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 09/08/22
A great science podcast. Interesting topics that are thoroughly discussed. A serious source that isn’t dumbed down.
jersey4878 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/05/22
In recent years almost all scientific podcasts have tended to dumb things down as time progressed to the point that even professional scientists found some of them incomprehensible. This however is not true for Quanta magazine which has kept up standards of high quality information that covers...Read full review »

Real mental challenge to follow in the best possible way. It’s cutting edge. Incredible range of topics intelligently written about, and read. Usually this non STEM person (me) can just about follow what’s going on, often I relisten to episodes because they’re jam packed.
Jjjhoyt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/31/22
Ok
It was too much information to take in. Too many numbers and facts at once. Very accurate though!
Sophiellin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/29/22
very high quality science, one of the best podcasts i know
Almost Somebody via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/04/22
The right blend of breadth and depth. Clear enough to give the lay person an introduction but “meaty” enough to merit multiple listens and provide a great jumping off point for more information.
Awinde05 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/13/21
Will not disappoint
T-Mo31 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/16/21
I am not a scientist but find the ideas fascinating and the applications and implications of what’s covered here range wide. The writing so clearly makes it understandable. As Feinman said, even the most complex ideas are communicable in plain language. I’ve had many fascinating hours listening...Read full review »

The content is great. But during interviews it sounds like someone is transcribing whoever is speaking and the microphone is picking up the keyboard typing.
Bklyn guy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/12/21
My new favorite science podcast. Great writing that goes deep into a subject and tries to convey some of the more complex nuances of current scientific thinking. If you like this podcast also check out Scientific Odyssey for a great science history podcast.

Quanta Magazine was a new discovery for me in 2020 and I’m in love with the content and the way it’s delivered. Beyond educational, it’s the entertainment that keeps me equally engaged. The podcast supplements the magazine by providing bite size articles. I find myself eagerly awaiting each...Read full review »
Action2Fluency via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/02/20
Quanta magazine is probably the best and most important science magazine around. The articles are Clever, detailed and legitimate science not just “gee whiz, look how brilliant we all are.” The writing is top notch and the podcast is like a second dessert filling in the details with a more human...Read full review »

Is it the mind, or the brain, which came first? Are we scientists or philosophers? Does it even matter?

MIT kid 2010 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/18
This podcast does a great job at including enough detail to allow for an understanding not only of the subject under discussion but of the larger context of the research. Though fluff pieces on science have their place it was sad to see some negative reviews of this podcast by people who...Read full review »

A spectacular podcast. Consistently interesting, and much less dumbed down compared to other science news outlets.
Hfshrdv via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/15/17
This is a very intense science podcast. It goes deeply into science issues.
PerryBorenstein via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/25/17
so good
nateeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/20/17
I love QuantaMagazine online so I was excited to see a podcast. However, the presenter's reading style is too difficult to listen to anymore. It's as far from natural speaking as you can get, clearly just reading from a script in a painfully stilted manner. Unfortunately I won't be...Read full review »
Ixzo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/29/17
This a really interesting and informative podcast. It covers many of the hot topics in science and gives a good overview of what is happening. Recommend

This podcast serves up a dense, but digestible, helping of science. You'll stay up to date on the latest goings on in a wide variety of scientific research fields. Topics are explained very well without feeling like a dissertation. I recommend this podcast for people who like Inquiring Minds...Read full review »

I love Quanta Magazine, thus I love the podcast. The episodes are veritably illuminating.
Samchats via Apple Podcasts · India · 10/11/16
Love this podcast, just like QM website & stories. Please keep it going.
MIflyer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/13/16
A great mix of topics, at a level that is a little higher than most science podcasts. Lots of shows about math, which I love! The presenter is very pleasant to listen to. My only suggestion would be to check pronunciation of all foreign names, since many are tricky. Some examples I've...Read full review »

Este es uno de mis podcast preferido. Lleno de información interesante y que no se encuentra en otros podcast (sobre todo acerca de matemáticas). Me gustaba sobre todo la voz de la primera locutora. Ojalá haya algo así en español. Muy recomendable!
Alpeji via Apple Podcasts · Chile · 07/29/16
I'm subscribed to 50-odd podcasts, but Quanta is my absolute favourite. The balance between technical detail and relatable storytelling is spot-on, indulging me in my closet curiosity for university-level physics and math without the frustration and boredom of a lecture series. The sound of...Read full review »
Spiral Ganglion via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/29/16
I really enjoy Quanta the magazine, but the podcast is very difficult to listen to. It's not so much that the presenter reads in monotone, because she does make an effort to emphasize certain words, perform vocal inflections, etc. But the pacing is so off. Like, she doesn't pause at...Read full review »
