Not great

I’m so sad they stopped making this because it has been one of my favorite podcasts. I’m going to listen to it again because it’s phenomenal.

I could use some more outrage from the blaze boy 😅

I listen to ALL of Simon’s YouTube channels both on that platform and as podcasts. I really enjoy ‘Today I Found Out’ with Daven and Simon as I’m an avid fact fan. Although my favourite channel is The Casual Criminalist, I would highly recommend you listen to Brain Food, especially if you’re a...Read full review »

This podcast is one of my most listened to solely for the fact that it is so boring and helps me fall asleep. I went into it trying to learn new things but found your voices too soothing to listen to during the day. Either way, thanks!

I follow many of Simon’s YouTube channels, but have a bit less time than I used to to watch videos - so I’m pretty happy that this exists. I’ve just listened to my first episode, one about pranks from behind the grave, and I subscribed straight off. Keep up the fab work as always :D

Love listening to this on evening walks, keep up the good work :)

I love this show and miss it. I hope u can start back up again since I just keep replying ur old episodes all day at my workplace. I do love almost all of Simons channels but he must try to watch more of the classics, but I won’t hold that against the show bec ur still great. Hope ur back for...Read full review »

It has been a year with no new podcasts. Waiting….
Mahmoudcyco via Apple Podcasts · Taiwan · 10/26/21
This show is amazing. I love the amount of work that you guys put into all the material you speak on. The friendly banter between American English and British English is entertaining as well (especially for a person who moved to the US after using the metric system!) I love to listen to this...Read full review »

The brainfood show is a top quality podcast. It’s the type of podcast you could randomly click play on any episode and it would be thoroughly entertaining. Both gentlemens’ voices are pleasant to listen to, and their witty banter and hilarious asides keep their shows unpredictable. The cherry on...Read full review »

Wonderfull show with interesting listenable content. I am always looking for new episodes every week... but nothing, zilch, nada! I can just imagine Davin doesn't have time anymore because of flying his stupid plane every day.. and Simon most probably made another 12 kids that keeps him busy...Read full review »

Congratulations on the second child Simon, when you get Danny back in the basement give me more brain food.
SutendoMack via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/27/21
I love the off topic banter, just seems fun and natural. Big fan, great for on the road!
ruskiiran via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/27/21
David and Simon present on some really interesting topics and the way they riff against each other is pure podcast Jazz. Very intelligent, fun, and entertaining.
Montaignard via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/24/21
COME ON FACT BOY! Your show is awesome. The format is good and it’s fun to listen to you both waffle on.
Smokenhotlamabather via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/08/21
Love the interactions between the two and the facts are really fun!
SamC_311 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/21/21
This channel is great. Great facts and even better side note information. And the banter is brilliant too, the kind of things that i would think of when talking about the subject. Keep it up guys! I do notice you don’t have any 2021 episodes yet. I have just finished the 2018 episodes and now...Read full review »

Discovered this from the YouTube channel. Been binge listening for about a week now. Keep it coming gents. This is my favorite thing you two put out.

I really like the longer format with some side notes added to the stories. It feels like a real conversation. It took a while to get used to the quite different style compared to YouTube but Now I really like it.
Tobias512 via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 08/01/21
Fun
Well researched info
iJackT via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/14/21
Was looking forward to this as I enjoy the YouTube content. Unfortunately had to turn it off within five minutes as both hosts continually used the word “like” several times in every sentence. Very very annoying and lazy speech. Maybe this could have been edited out before broadcast?
Triggerdon via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/26/21
I found this show in January and love it. I only have two more episodes left to listen to. It hasn’t been updated since last year so I’m afraid it is over.
Jamkul Magesblood via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/24/21
Just finished listening to the medieval series and I can confirm the Cornish do speak like pirates , which I’m impressed that this was mentioned. They go on little tangents so can be a really long listen but they are funny and well worth it if you stick with it. Well worth the listen...Read full review »

I really hope they keep doing the Star Trek facts.
Ethomasphoto via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/17/21
I hope Simon and Daven bring the podcast back. They finally hit a perfect stride and then they disappear. Fascinating stories, great banter, and a lot of getting totally off track.
wingdo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/06/21
This is great but they keep saying we will be more regular posting and nothing. It’s a shame I’d be willing to pay to listen.
Mudgee_ via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/01/21
So on the last episode Daven said he’d bought an airplane. That was about five months ago, and there have been no updates since. I’m starting to get concerned. I hope everything is okay because this is one of my top favorite podcasts and the hosts seem like great guys. I’m sure it’s nothing, but...Read full review »

Came here from following the rabbit hole from one of Simon's other shows the casual criminalist and it’s a really interesting show that is filling my head with great little nuggets of knowledge thanksRead full review »
KarolsIV via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/29/21
Easily my favorite podcast full of interesting info and effortless banter between Simon and Devin. Came to it after discovering Today I found out and top tenz. Love all of your works, even if you disappear from the podcasts for long periods, hope you’re all alright
bjamessch via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/23/21
The boy with the blaze, fact boy or the casual criminalist is surely looking to take other the world. All hail President Whistler Make business blaze a pod cast

Pretty great
Tetheridge15 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/19/21
First off love the show keep up the great work wish episodes came out sooner. Second Canadians are not call cheese head sadly that’s people from Wisconsin and thirdly 99%of Canadians don’t have super bad road rage like you say, I’ve lived in different parts of Canada for the last 23 years and...Read full review »
treegreen_ via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/18/21
Really good banter and easy to listen to. I listen while I drive to work and enjoy the company Dave and Simon give. Only 4 stars today because they sadly haven’t uploaded anything new for several months.
Shmandles via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/15/21
(Every positive comment already made). Still waiting for The Fascinating Origin of French Fries. Come on, guys - you only have about 99% of human history left to cover (along with the rest of the known universe). “Please, Sir, may I have some more?”
Neal Downe via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/13/21
I’ve listened to hours and hours of this podcast and the casual criminalist while recovering from surgery. The long deep dives are appreciated.
igoekler via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/13/21
Each episode has great topics and the banter between the hosts is perfect.
coatesmatt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/04/21
Too infrequent
jazenka via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/21
I don’t write many reviews but this is awesome. Always informative and entertaining. Edit: would be 6 stars except they don’t release episodes much anymore
joelclendineng via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/01/21
This is one of my favourite podcasts. It's educational, Simon and Daven are funny, and I learn interesting bits of history.Read full review »
AspieMomtoTwo via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/28/21
I’ve been binge listening to these as I drive or do other tasks. It’s great listening to something educational and interesting. I’ve listened and/or watched several of Simon’s channels. Thank you for your time in making my day a bit brighter. 😁
ThisisaPaigeturner via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/26/21
I love this podcast and look forward to more episodes. Very informative and fun. Of course I subscribe to anything Simon does because it has always turned out well for me. Business Blaze is my favorite but this is a close second! Simon’s personality shines through.
salinia miso via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/19/21
Love it, only discovered it a few weeks back but I’ve listened to them all already. Simmy W has a way of keeping me entertained on here as well as YouTube on a daily basis. Keep the brill work up! Now I need to find a podcast to fill the void this one has left, as a podcast noob I would like some...Read full review »

I’ve followed some of the YouTube channels for a bit now, but I’m reeeeelly late to the podcast party. I’m so glad I looked into podcasts, and this is exactly what I needed. I listen to the podcast when I’m getting ready for work and on my morning commute. Educational and entertaining. Smashed...Read full review »

My boyfriend is an avid listener of this Show and told me many times I had to try it. Never did, but at least I left an review like he begged me to do because he only listens on Spotify.
NalanDarwish via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 03/09/21
Love this podcast, always tell my new found facts to friends to look smart lol. This podcast always keeps me entertained
kristyvid via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/28/21
I’ve been listening for about a year to these podcasts and they keep getting better
