“Why have guests only to talk over them, interrupt them, talk non-stop, and veer off-topic? Just have a podcast where all you do is talk alone instead of the bait and switch with an interesting guest.”

“Truly an important far reaching conversation. Thank you for it.
Re: the Frank Wilczek interview
This is an excellent even historic conversation. Krauss understands the important issues, and this is apparent in his questions. Wilczek is both brilliant and humble. Well worth your time.”

“Would prefer more science oriented shows. Host interrupts guests often.
Too many political themes.
Done with this, unsubscribing.”

“I was a bit astonished when I listened to Mr. Krauss interview Sabine Hossenfelder then Cormac McCarthy.He acted with Sabine (her book is Lost in Beauty)as if it was rare to hear talk of beauty re mathematical equations in physics. He sounded somewhat sceptical of her premise, while admitting...”Read full review »

“When you speak of “woke” you sound like old men out of touch with young people. Do you ask why they are so sensitive? Do you talk to colleagues about how to address this with students? What steps are you taking to make young people tougher and more resilient and curious. Believe me, it is not...”Read full review »

“Fascinating guests, and I welcome the robust debates between them and the host, I just wish that Krauss would learn to let guests finish their sentences/thoughts instead of constantly speaking over them. This makes it difficult for guests to give the best expression of their ideas, which should...”Read full review »

“There are some great guests on this show but they become minor characters as they are dominated by Krause’s inordinate interest in himself. It is called perorating. What a shame. Krause does not know how to ask a simple question and let his guests shine.”

“I do actually like Lawrence Krauss - his books and his outspokenness on a variety on societal subjects. But being a good scientist and a good debater doesn’t make you a great podcaster, which is a pity. His guests are great, as he knows whole academia, but as they never get to finish a sentence...”Read full review »

“As many have already mentioned, he constantly interrupts guests mid-sentence. Either by steering the conversation to himself or with annoying "oh yeah", and "umm yes", "I know, I know".
It is his personality so it is something he won't be able to fix any time soon....”Read full review »

“…but Krauss does not give his guests the necessary time to answer them. Instead he interrupts and poses a new question, or intrudes with a personal opinion. It is hard to
listen to a podcast who’s host is not a good
listener.
Great potential, but definitely room for improvement.”

“Would have loved to have heard Bill Shatner express his opinions, finish a thought without constantly being interrupted, cut off. I’m afraid Lawrence Kraus will lose listeners if he doesn’t learn to listen and let his guests speak… what a shame, it could have been a very interesting podcast.”

“Lawrence certainly knows his stuff when it comes to physics, and the rating should be higher but he’s a terrible interviewer. Just bumbling through questions, taking an age to even make a coherent point. And then his stance on climate change in episode with Matt Ridley was final nail in the coffin.”
