“One of at least the top 5 regularly broadcast podcasts I listen to. Sometimes the episode titles and descriptions are a turn off, as they tend to be teasery rather than informative. Some of the episodes blurbs threaten to be a bit “worthy” or “woke” even for me. But everyone episode I listen to...”Read full review »

“Just listened to prison for protesting. Absolutely no use of science. Simply a mouthpiece for the protestors. Soft questioning. I heard nothing except justifications for the protestors side. No argument at all presented for why the jail sentence was so high.
A complete misuse of the platform.”

“I’ve listened to half a dozen episodes, hoping the series wld improve. Sadly it hasn’t. I guess some listeners may enjoy the gushy presentation and the weak-minded content. For me, it’s a yawn.”

“This show is very left of center on politics. If you are ok with this then no big deal, but you have to ask is there room for politics in science.
Full disclosure is that I typically vote conservative. However I am very open minded and I feel I have a good grasp of both sides as my political...”Read full review »

Some more biographical information about your guests and links to the papers you are talking about would really add to your show”
