Listening to this podcast is like a night kicking back with your buddies, drinking and BS-ing. You definitely learn, and they do inspire you to go...”Read full review »

“This is quite possibly the best podcast out there for people who love science with a side of humor, and a little brew. These guys are smart, funny, and always have great topics. But the best thing by far is the trailer trash segment. Rock on guys!”
