“I love this Podcast. Three bright, cheerful, intelligent people discussing crazy and diverse subjects. Fabulous!
So many (too many) Podcasts are painfully, embarrassingly, boring.
This Podcast is riveting. Please don’t change a thing and please, please continue!”

“A really fun idea, listening to 3 people with different areas of interest, discussing a whole bunch of random facts. It feels somewhat like you are joining them for a relaxed lunch! It really does mirror the way in which conversations disappear off at random tangents and are made far more...”Read full review »

“What a fun podcast! I’m learning a lot of interesting facts and very much enjoying the rapport between the hosts.
My only suggestion would to be to add the topics into the title or at least in the description of each episode, as it would make it much easier to go back and find specific topics.”
