“I love it but I was reading the reviews mainly the one stars and the majority are like “gambling adds”. “Bad/incorrect information” “wrong pronunciation” “accents” like it doesn’t matter just don’t leave a written review if you don’t like it and Josh and Chuck don't let those one star reviews...”Read full review »

“Josh has a grip on life & humor. Now that they have made a boatload of money promoting companies as evil as McDonald’s
Chuck is a pretentious c#%$t”

“I love the podcast, been listening for almost 10 years. Selects and the ads are getting on my nerves. Selects should be it’s own separate podcast, it’s really frustrating and I always have to mark them as played so it doesn’t auto play in the car.”

“In an effort to get away from the brain-rot content I usually consume online, I’ve tried to get into many different educational podcasts. I’m pretty picky and struggle with my attention span, so I always end up bored or annoyed by hosts.
I am SO thankful I started listening to these guys...”Read full review »

Chuck’s laugh and Josh’s quips always put me in a good mood and make me chuckle. I’ll add that they always correct...”Read full review »

“Love this podcast. The guys are likable and have a great dynamic with an enjoyable back and forth. They’re also very relatable in expressing how they may not be familiar with certain topics before they do the research, so it’s not pretentious at all. Just a couple of genuinely fun, inquisitive...”Read full review »

“Great show to learn some interesting facts and possibly help you win at trivia some day! Sometimes their political ideology spills into the podcast, but not to a point where it’s bothersome or as if they’re pushing their beliefs onto the listener.”

“I love the info from this podcast. it’s really well put together and super informative. Although I don’t think the hosts like each other very much. They definitely feel more like co workers than friends. Not necessarily bad just not what I’m used to in these type of podcasts.”

“I have listened to just about every episode and love Josh and Chuck’s witty banter. I just wish their leftward lean (for a long time “live and let live”) hadn’t slowly turned into a hard slant into wokery and liberal advocacy. It’s just so ironic in the Luddite episode that two people whose jobs...”Read full review »

“Long time listener.
You were my first of many podcasts, and the one I always go back to when I’m caught up on others.
I listened to the “call of the void “when it was released.
Then I happened to pick a random old episode - “free will” , the next day or so.
Chuck tells the same story about...”Read full review »

Chuck is grumpy, no longer funny, and adds nothing to the conversation because he of below-average wit. I only gave two stars because of Josh, who is awesome, funny, and smart. He needs to...”Read full review »

“Honestly the show is so good and really easy to listen to these two. I get the need for ads on free content but 1) they are so loud and jarring and frequent that they totally interrupt the flow of the show and 2) why don’t they have a paid subscription option? Similar to iheart True Crime channel...”Read full review »

“Chuck! I am a Rush fanatic. I recited those lyrics aloud when Josh said not making a choice is the same as making a choice. In the following seconds you quoted Neil Peart (rest in power beautiful human) and blew my mind. I’m happy to know we share an appreciation for RUSH.
Love your show.”

“Sadly this show is almost unlistenable now due to the adverts getting longer, louder, more frequent and infinitely more annoying. For some reason they seem to only now advertise other podcasts where the hosts have incredibly annoying screeching voices. Shame as I used to love this show.”
