Always learn something interesting.

I’ve enjoyed this podcast for years and there’s always something new and amazing I learn. I love Molly as an interviewer and throughly woot Seth’s commentary and humor. All the gusts are incredibly compelling and in my feed filled with politics, this podcast is an inspiring, fresh and always bright listen.

Favorite podcast!

Jet3rry11/16/2024

This is my favorite podcast! Well organized, professionally produced, fascinating topics, clear, intelligent questions and discussions with knowledgeable and engaging experts. Molly and Seth guide the listener through what could be difficult topics but their thoughtful questions and discussions with”big picture” summaries present scientific insights in an enjoyable and understandable way, even for non-tech, non-scientists like me. Many thanks to everyone involved in sharing their knowledge via this podcast! A few dollars a month on Patreon to support this show is totally worth it but it’s free even if you choose not to donate.
