“So, I heard of this show from another show. Decided to give it a try. Did not get past the 7 minute mark of the first episode (which turns out to be episode 1, season 2, Broken). This is not what I came here to listen. Now, I might try again with season 1, episode 1 and give a better review...”Read full review »

“The Stuff of Life was HowStuffWorks's first attempt at an edited, produced, and non-continuous podcast, and it was great. The subjects discussed felt important, and Julie did very well presenting them. The miscarriage one really stood out to us. Ultimately, this show's legacy is filled by...”Read full review »

“Love it! I’m not usually one to review but I feel as though I need to counteract the voters (in two senses of the word) who cannot take the reality of their decisions.”

“Getting a little more of an anecdotal narrative in these off-beat stories makes for a podcast that feels much more like enjoying rather than studying.”

“Gave it a try, but they just couldnt make it happen for me. Maybe let it go too long. Change format, stop making everything political I dont know what could help it. It sad cause it has potential.”

“Are used to enjoy this podcast very much. Every since Donald Trump got elected the podcast has to talk about how things that Donald Trump does might mess things up. Get over the election and start making great progress everything in the world does not have to. Back to Donald Trump. You might...”Read full review »

“Season 1 was good. Season 2 is incredibly political and biased. It seems to exist only to rub salt in the wounds of all. I know it's meant to get raw and emotional but it hurts and you feel vilified (no matter your orientation, gender, race, or political affiliation.) So not what I expect...”Read full review »

“Loved it last year, but it's taken a political turn so I'm out. If you voted for Trump, pass on this. At least this host doesn't come right out and say, "if you voted for Trump, you voted for white supremacy", like the hosts at Stuff Your Mom Never Told You, but you get the...”Read full review »

“I feel like they take boring topics and try to make outlandish, epic connections. They try to be novel but end up being either boring, or just questionable. For example, "Weather is the go to conversation for strangers". Ok, pretty basic. Or: "Nature, then, IS weather." What does...”Read full review »

“Another great podcast from How Stuff Works. This is a little different from most of their podcasts, at least the ones I listen to. Instead of two presenters talking about a topic, the host is narrating while we get clips from different interviews. This format worked really well, and I can´t wait...”Read full review »
