Makes a mockery of scepticism and, by extention, the scientific method.
I only listened to a couple of episodes, but what I heard was unbearable. This podcast is about doubting ideas the hosts disagree with, it is not about being sceptical. This combined with a steady diet of opinionated comments and wildly misrepresented scientific ideas makes for a one star podcast, even with the good production quality. An example: the female host said something along the lines of "you want proof of evolution? look how much taller you are than your grandparents!" a notion that her cohost echoed... If you know so little about the theory of evolution that you think it causes major physical changes over one or two generations, please, please, do not blather on about it on your podcast.

This is easily one of the best podcasts out there. Entertaining, enlightening and interesting. I enjoy each episode and keep coming back for more. Very professionally done. Instead of the hosts simply talking to the microphone, in each episode (I've listened to about 30 so far) is an interview of...Read full review »
