“Some of the nastiest form of Boiler plate liberalism, with all the finger wagging and self importance you’re come to expect from any grifter on the left.”

“I can’t believe that I find myself falling in love with this trio. I feel seen. I feel held. As is always the case the folks telling the biggest and most righteous truths are also the funniest people in the world. And for the haters: writing a negative review ain’t gonna make you smarter than...”Read full review »

“Just couldn’t get past one of the annoying hosts talking too much. Also, when you talk over each other in a podcast it makes the audio really hard to understand.”

“Sometimes it makes me cry laughing, sometimes it just makes me cry. Been binge-listening for three weeks, often re-listening to episodes to learn more things + laugh again. Can be hard to follow if you listen here instead of on YouTube where you can see the slides.”

“Went on about how evil Israel is and ranting about a cease fire without mentioning the hostages still held and the murder and rape and rape and murder. Yes, war is bad but Israel is allowed to defend themselves against terrorism. Apparently the hosts never heard about the holocaust. Maybe stay w...”Read full review »

“A not too serious but often enlightening discussion of history with laugh-out-loud commentary. Kinda like a discussion with your slightly cynical, well-read, friends over a beer.
Obv, a buncha dudes chatting so may not be everyone’s cup of tea but if you want to learn about a London ferry...”Read full review »

“The description of leftist is correct but is this supposed to be a political pod that covers poorly constructed engineering points with bad comedy or an engineering pod with poorly constructed political rhetoric and bad comedy?
And stop interrupting guests with a bad joke”

“I’ve listened to about 10 episodes over the past year. They seem like a typical group of friends just with a very very leftist lean. Most of it I could just ignore but I really wish I didn’t have to hear so much coded anti-Israel rhetoric. I wish I didn’t have to hear any political talk on a...”Read full review »

“I am always drawn to podcasts that are really just friends chatting about things they enjoy. If you are interested in learning a little and laughing a lot, this is the podcast for you. The lesson I’ve learned from this podcast is that a lot of people are idiots. It is a lot of fun.”

“Started off interesting enough but for whatever reason they put a weird, goofy distortion effect over one of the hosts starting in episode three? four? and it was just impossible to listen to that. Audio quality matters. This isn't 2002 anymore.”Read full review »

“Folk,
Thanks loads for what I consider the best evidence possible that American Capitalism is a very bad thing for humanity.
Episode 119 ( on the history of the RR industry) highlights the very reason my oldest daughter (a fan of your show) is employed in St. Paul, MN as an electrical...”Read full review »

“Love, love, love this podcast. I love the stories, the hosts, the humour, the format, the Goddamn News, the people that send in their Safety Third stories, and the politics of it all.
If I could recommend only one episode to you, dear listener, it would be the Atmospheric Railway one (#17)....”Read full review »

“This is a funny podcast about engineering disasters that I am led to believe also has slides, which is weird for a podcast but okay. I have formed a parasocial relationship with the hosts and feel less alone when I listen to their bants.”

I had high hopes for this show, because it’s right up my alley of what I find interesting. But I don’t...”Read full review »

“Came here because some hairy Armenian guy wouldn’t shut up about them. Not saying I’m a captive audience but for some reason the doors won’t open in this audio format of a room with….slides of all things. Seems like a safety violation but they got me and I just can’t quit them.”

“This is the podcast version of grabbing beers with your friends at the bar and somehow getting into an in-depth conversation about some engineering disaster. Also, as someone who used to live in Philly I love the frequent digressions into Philly-specific rants. Makes me laugh. Never change.”

“Gave this a few hours of my time and there’s too much junk polluting what could potentially be a good podcast.
Good:
- Episodes are very long. If you like long podcasts, this is a good thing.
- Many “classic” incidents covered including Titanic, Therac-25, etc.
Bad:
- Hysterically political in...”Read full review »

“I will admit that when I first started this podcast, I was a bit frustrated by the the first 15 minutes or so being joke-y news. But if you go watch on YT, there are usually people who link to the beginning of the topic. Starting listening at 1.5x also helped.
And now that I’ve gotten to know...”Read full review »

“…worth knowing. If you’re a “concrete thinker”, “hard worker”, or have ever “craved” a dish at a chain restaurant then I would probably pass.
