“I listened to few of the episodes and found them quite interesting and informative. However, the episode on ChatGPT felt like an opinion of one person.”

“I like Sean Carroll a lot, have even bought his latest book. But a podcast that’s hours long is just too much. Who has time to listen to one that long?”

“I’m embarrassed not to have written a review, yet, having listened for over a year now. It’s one of my favorite podcasts. I love the interviews, the variety of guests and changing subject matter, and I love the AMAs as well.”

“This podcast is reminiscent of what Socrates himself would have created. It explores the realms of truth and learning while expanding the frontiers of “knowledge”. Through engaging conversations, Mr. Caroll, not only explains but also genuinely learns from his guests, all in pursuit of...”Read full review »

“I chose the episode 200 on the Multiverse, and instead of getting an episode that grabbed my attention and was interesting I found myself listening to multiple tangents that couldn't seem to follow one consistent strain of thought. Instead of making the topic digestible for someone to...”Read full review »

“I truly don’t understand how Sean has the time to do all the things he does, but I am delighted that he squeezes in the podcast! Although is a physicist, his interests and guests are wide ranging. He is a great interviewer and asks questions that show a genuine interest in trying to understand...”Read full review »

“Great content, but often the information (especially when it’s Sean himself speaking, like in AMAs) is not presented for easy mass consumption- which might be intended.”

“Sean Carrol was good when he was talking mainly about cosmology and particle physics but his move to JH and his new direction has brought extra depth and interest to this podcast”

“The host is unbearably condescending & so full of himself, whilst intending to appear kind & circumspect, &, apart from the most positivist brute data on natueal sciences, he entertains a notion of truth which is nothing short of blandest empiricism at rare best. His guests, if they...”Read full review »

Dr. Sean Carroll does not only step outside his field, but is acutely cognizant when doing so. His conversations are similar to the...”Read full review »

“Host seems more interested in espousing his own views to his guest, than a general interest in hearing from the guest and inviting theirs.
When searching a topic or guest by name, most listeners are interested in hearing from that guest.”

“Sean Carroll is a rare breed; the kind of person that carries both the pure excitement and wonder over the procurement of knowledge, as well as the mind that instinctively follows through laterally and inquisitively on ideas and perspectives postulated.
The over and understated focus on...”Read full review »
