We can get giggly dialogue anywhere. I miss Sarah’s nice voice simply delivering information. Aug 1st Pompei made me cringe

I was wanting to listen to science, cutting edge research etc… instead I heard a monotone lecture about colonialism and another jab at our culture. If you want to have those conversations, fine… put it in a different podcast. Don’t get me here under false pretenses.

Excellent content if and only if not about sensitive topics such as the origins of SARS-Cov-2. Science has played a crucial role trying to cover up the lab leak (theory). The ethical standards of this channel are subpar. Alina Chan nailed it, Science needs admit it sooner or later.

As iOS Podcast rolled out this new feature, it would be great helpful if we can view the scripts.

I listen to quite a few science podcasts and this one is by far the most boring one. The presentation of each topic is boring. I want more authentic narration, not the ridiculously animated NPR-Planet Money style of narration

So for some reason, the negative feedback in my review got edited out. So I’m rewriting it with as one paragraph so it’ll be harder to censor. This podcast is generally good, but could do without the new segments on gender identity. It belongs to the realm of the humanities and opinion. I listen...Read full review »

So easy to follow, awesome topics

Increasingly usurped by blatantly non-scientific “social” studies reports that are neither scientific nor even objective. The public’s belief in science and the scientific method is already at an all-time low and listening to what this podcast has become, that’s quite understandable.

Thanks for the show all! I love having a science news podcast to learn about stuff I hadn’t really thought about I wish more time was spent on the interviews-they are great topics! For example the latest episode about the cartels, I’d rather have 11 more minutes (or more!) of that interview than...Read full review »

I really like the topics that are covered on this podcast, but really dislike the host. She sounds really arrogant, which is unattractive, as well as a surprise, as people that like science tend to be curious and modest.

In case the main topic does not interest me.
mondomando🍺 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/14/22
I agree-3 topics are too many Better to concentrate on only one
pcf0080 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/18/22
Why can’t we have a podcast that gives us hard science news without having to pepper every show with contemporary social science. It just seems like unnecessary and unwanted virtue signalling.
CRS123456 via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 07/07/22
I have changed my review from 5 to 2 stars because of two unfortunate changes. Rather than interviewing the authors of original papers, the host frequently just interviews another Science reporter. This produces a “scripted” effect and the enthusiasm of the real scientist-authors is missing. The...Read full review »

It might be worthwhile to focus on just one topic per episode. Sometimes I find myself interested in only 1 out of three of the topics discussed and therefore don’t listen to the episode
Abu Shibshib via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/16/22
I can not download the podcast at all!
twangcn via Apple Podcasts · China · 06/11/22
Too many articles lately not to do with science as such but with people claimed to be disadvantaged in or by the scientific community, largely by reason of race. All very well but it’s not about science. I regrettably ended my subscription today after listening to an otherwise interesting piece...Read full review »

The problem with thalidomide is that there are two forms, left and right chirality and one form is fine and therapeutic and the other is mutagenic. When mass production began there was little understanding of the difference. Not describing this difference when discussing this drug is irresponsible.

Just a heads up! Love the pod

You need to improve your audio Fidelity. The sound quality must be improved. Discard anything but the best microphones. We live in a free society. This suggestion that someone cannot compete in this free-for-all society is absurd. Claiming victimhood is an easy way out For anyone who does not...Read full review »

Sarah Crespi is one of my favorite interviewers and science communicators. She’s beyond amazing. When she interviews researchers, her questions are well-crafted and insightful, and she asks terrific follow-up questions. Any time I feel a little confused by an interviewee’s explanation, she asks...Read full review »

In a toxic ocean of vocal fry and uptalk Sarah Crespi is a beautiful tropical island to save us all. It is so refreshing to listen to a science podcast that isn’t singularly focused on COVID-19 and climate change. Sarahs interviews are weaved flawlessly with insightful questions and innocent...Read full review »

Great podcast. I really wish it was longer with more shows !! Quality science :)

Watered down pop science, overly political
Flex Brusquehard via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/07/21
Another “popular science” podcast that entertains by dumbing down, oversimplifying, and flat out ignoring facts that contradict a chosen narrative. Critical (skeptical) thinking is fundamental to science but is utterly lacking in these stories.
VovveLennier via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/21
I just listened to the Dec 11th episode. After 10min of info came straight 2.5min of ads! I was biking and didn’t want to stop to fast forward. Those were painful 2.5min! I won’t listen to this podcast again when my hands are busy.

Hello! I love your podcast and I always like to listen to them from oldest to newest. For some reason it won’t let me listen to the next episode I am on which is from 2014 about down syndrome. Can you please fix it so I can continue to listen to your podcast? Can you please fix your podcast so I...Read full review »

A few good episodes, then nothing but political brainwashing and political bashing. I can’t rate it anymore. I like science because it is unbiased and refreshes my brain, this podcast puts a spin on every subject I just unsubscribed. Later
Groucho the man via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/16/20
This is a great podcast that goes in depth into science and explains stories in detail. Topics include covid19 and also lots of other interesting areas from ecology to anorexia, ancient societies and neurology.

Can be a teeny bit dull at times but very useful, informative and reliably intelligent. Info is made accessible to a wide audience.

I am glad I get to listen to the science podcast as I get to work. Quick way to catchup on the latest. Love it!!
raulat via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/18/19
Bottom Line: Highly recommend for anyone who is curious about world around them! From reports on beehive viruses to racial biases in algorithms, to observing cancer cells in dogs from antiquity, this is a very informative podcast! Easy to listen to, and you don’t have to be a scientist or STEM...Read full review »

I hope they take time to talk about the data for aspirin and wether it really helps Or hurts populations where it is used prophylactially in assymptomatic people despite being sponsors by Bauer aspirin !!!!!
resworb2091802 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/10/19
Biology, chemistry, medicine, astronomy, quantum physics, social science, all delivered in great quality and at the highest level. A podcast to raise the spirit whenever reality makes you doubt the sanity of mankind.
Romo-Doc via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 10/05/19
主要给专业人士提供专业咨询的,面对的听众是science 读者。不是编排散的问题,也不存在什么学不学东西的事儿。如感兴趣,从科普类入门较好。循序渐进,不必强求。
lesslessley via Apple Podcasts · China · 07/30/19
如果是为了听力和了解信息 是很适合的资源 语速口音都还可以 个人觉得语速有点慢 可以手动调快 但是 如果是来学点东西的 这里面的内容编排有点松散 可能 主持人风格导致的吧 以上

Science podcast used to be great but it has really slipped.
AAASFan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/01/19
I like how you will tell a lot about the topic and details instead of skipping over them. It allows me to have a much better understanding of the topic.
Uh needs a lot of fixing via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/23/19
I want to like this podcast but it has all the personality of a beige wall, slowly drying. It’s not as if they don’t choose subjects that should be interesting, there’s plenty of potential, but it’s just not showing through. Where is your passion for your subject? Are you reading the questions...Read full review »
