Didn't know you had this show earlier until Roman Mars mentioned it

Such a great podcast. I can't stop listening. Searched for it after I finished all of 'theory of everything'

I listened to every episode of Theory of Everything but needed more. This show is smart and funny. Walker is brilliant. TMI's special correspondent Chris is my favorite.

I was referred to this podcast by a friend, we both love Radiolab, and I am completely unimpressed. Gave it 3 random episodes, found it to be rambling, disorganized and poorly edited.

You are missed.
Joe Totten via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/21/13
Interesting topics and well put together.

Thank you Ben for sharing.

The best thing that can be said about TMI is that Benjamin Walker chooses interesting topics. Unfortunately, Mr. Walker has never heard Voltaire's warning that the secret to being a bore is to tell everything, and that's just what Walker does here. The podcasts are overlong, poorly edited,...Read full review »

Benjamen Walker's voice is original and quirky. Fans of his NPR program "The Theory of Everything" and Walker's earlier "Your Radio Nightlight" from Boston will not be disappointed. His programs are produced with loving care and attention to detail. I never know what to expect from Benjamen...Read full review »

This show is great -- sort of a younger, happier, more upbeat Joe Frank -- like if Joe smoked weed and ate sweet snacks and had a decent love life and his show was positive or irreverent rather than "deep" or "important". This show is neither of those things and benefits from its apparent...Read full review »

His sources are unique and fascinating. His delivery is mesmerising. A unique blend of fact, fiction and geekdom which is unmatched for entertainment on any other pod. Can't hear enough of this guy, so make more, faster!

This show strikes me a slightly schizophrenic. I've subscribled to this show, and I do listen to it, and mostly enjoy it. But it's really hit or miss. Some of the shows are just fantastic, but sometimes it's just barely focused rambling.
Jason L Seward via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/16/12
I am a podcast fiend and have been listening to podcasts for a few years now. I thought I had discovered most of the outstanding ones. TMI is perfectly paced--gives you time to mull over the interesting and sometimes bizarre conversations. A podcast for curious people who like to play with...Read full review »

BWalker knows how to tell a story. Funny and poignant. listened through the entire backlog and it was totally worth it. It's stonier than This American Life, and there are some episodes that are slightly too far out there for my taste, but when it's good, it's the best.
Centurystand via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/09/12
Da kommer du til å elske TMI !! Dette er en juvel blant de sjeldne!
andrz via Apple Podcasts · Norway · 06/26/12
If you can get past BW's obsession with comic book illustrators, you will be rewarded. I personally loathe interviews with Authors as a rule, but this show is so good I am willing to risk it every time. A patched quilt of a podcast. Blending fact with fiction, bordering on surreal at times. I am...Read full review »

You never know what you're going to get with an episode of TMI, but it will always be good. When a new episode shows up it's always my first listen.
theonewithpodcast via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/26/12
I heard about this podcast on 99%invisible. Both are awesome
C4Northman via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 06/09/12
This is a great show. The simplicity and depth Benjamin achieves is more interesting and insightful then other shows with much larger budgets and staff. I can't wait for the next show.
Montreal Expos via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/05/12
Like excellent literature, this excellent show appeals to the audience's intelligence: instead of feeding you predigested content, it lets you wonder where fact ends and fiction begins and takes you into an exploration of the gray areas - so much more exciting than the black-and-white beaten...Read full review »

Up there with "This American Life"! Excellent production values.
MagsfromOZ via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/29/12
This is a great show. I love the stories, and the story telling. Benjamen is kind of becoming a hero of mine.
TJ McLachlan via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/28/12
This is the kind of radio I want to make. (And hear.) Reality; fantasy; journalism; tabloidism; science; fiction; science fiction; psychopolitical fantasias; audio poetry; this radio is everything. And it's beautiful.
JonathanGA via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/17/12
I love this podcast!! Every episode is an absolutely genius work of art! Keep up the good work :)
the culture synthetic via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/06/12
Were on the case Ben, this is the only show of its kind and were not going to let it die. We love it and we promise to spread the word. Critically acclaimed and Highly Recommended from Toronto Canada, by major_____
Mstr416 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/28/12
I have a cup of coffee with an episode of TMI every morning and I highly recommend it!
Nyx356 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/28/12
Luckily Mr. Walker makes up for it in talent, and topic.
Inkkensington via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/13/12
This is just about as good as it gets. If you like Radiolab, This American Life, The Moth, or anything by Joe Frank then you'll love TMI. Fabulous production, great music, and strange recurring characters all contribute to the show's most amazing feat: teetering on a knife edge balanced...Read full review »

100th review! Do I get a prize? TMI is amazing ...at times.
Rbot7 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/06/12
I love this. I can't believe he hasn't written a highly successful book of short stories. Thank you NPR!
hdhdnnsnd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/11/11
I found out about Benjamen Walker's "Too Much Information" podcast through Roman Mars' "99% Invisible" podcast. I'm glad I did. An excellent podcast that's intriguing, stimulating, humorous, eclectic and quirky. To top it off, it's very well produced. Download them and enjoy!!
LearninStill via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/26/11
I have to speak up about how great this show is. Sincerely, I get really excited every time a new episode arrives. I want everyone to know about how great it is, but then again I don't. Because then Benjamen will get hired as a writer for a late night show- or maybe a satellite radio host- and...Read full review »
theold96er via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/05/11
I came across TMI by way of 99% Invisible, and I'm completely hooked! The mix of stories and music is almost hypnotic, I've never heard anything quite like it. My only complaint is that I wish I could get a track listing of the music in each episode. Other than that, it's perfection!
SpeedyD via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/06/11
TMI is the podcast I reach for to share with people when they ask what podcast I am most excited about recently.
Ouvyt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/24/11
I dont remember how I found out about TMI but Im glad I did. Some podcasts roll in and out of my susbscribe list but TMI will stay forever. I cant wait for a new episode to show up for me to gobble up on my train ride to work. Little do the other commuters know that I am enjoying one of the...Read full review »

Listeners benefit from Benjamen Walker's wide-ranging interests and contacts. Low-key but always interesting.
inkish via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/11
A big part of Theory of Everything's charm is its unpredictability: it's sometimes interviews, sometimes stories, sometimes fact, sometimes fiction. (And regularly impossible to tell the difference, too.) But it's always thoughtful, ambitious, and fascinating.
martynzero via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/27/11
Benjamin Walker is properly unique... he offers radio that is really unlike anything I have ever heard. It constantly challenges you, but always delivers. The production value is second to none, but the material is by equal measures compelling, disgusting, odd, beautiful and illuminating. Ben...Read full review »
w_nightshade via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/26/11
It's an explosion of nutty ideas and odd characters and Ben's neuroses. It's chock full of guests talking for much too long about things that are important until it's drilled into your cortex. Most of all it's the sweet sweet flow of words and music - BW's stretches out over a full hour like no...Read full review »
confused456 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/26/11
Benjamen is single handedly doing the best radio reporting there is about the internet and about our Philip K. Dickensian info-glut age. TMI is funny and fictional at turns -- it's also angry, brainy, cutting edge and deeply dialed-in. Way more people should be hearing this show. It's important...Read full review »
IttyCity via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/25/11
TMI is consistently impressive and I listen immediately when each new episode comes out, but I must single out a recent episode called Geronimo IKEA, all about the operation to kill Osama Bin Laden. It was a perfect example of how to create a radio show. The story flow, subtle signposts, call...Read full review »

Mr.
Great show. Never miss it.
Radarpng via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/25/11
Of all the podcasts I subscribe to, this is the one I listen to every episode, to the end, every time, no skipping.
Jason Thaxter via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/25/11
I first started listening to Ben Walker when he was making the 'Theory of Everything'. I hadn't heard anything like it before. It was like I'd discovered a whole new medium - Each The Theory of Everything instalment offered this incredible coalescence of storytelling (astounding writing),...Read full review »
Mathew Wall-Smith via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/25/11
TMI is the internet's podcast. Lots of philosophy, art, sex, nerds, love, comic books, secret government agents, porn and Benjamen Walker's fantastic brain. Totally hooked.
rollertrain via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/25/11
It's more WFMU than NPR, but Walker gets great guests and is a fantastic interviewer and storyteller. A bit of a Joe Frank influence as well, if you like that kind of confessional storytelling, maybe-fiction/maybe-documentary thing (which I do). He also covers topic that might be considered to...Read full review »
Jason Grote via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/25/11
Very interesting program. He speaks with a kinda strange, slow, pleading affect, but the content is more than engaging enough to counteract this particular aesthetic distraction. I approve.
Vain Enthusiast via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/01/11
There are those shows that entertain, engage, think and then there are those that require us to question, reconsider and grow. Fortunately TMI does all of that. Mr. Walker's ability to hone the momentary and extract the human constant in everything, hidden deep inside each of us, is only seconded...Read full review »
D+M Denver via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/14/11
But TMI is like This American Life if This American Life had any sharp edges anywhere.
