Each episode, hosts Kaveh Taherian and Hannah Hillam choose one of their countless open browser tabs and finally take the time to read and discuss its contents until they gain enough strength to close that tab once and for all.

As chaotic and interesting as the ADHD ridden hosts. Thank you for digging and sharing little pieces of our shared humanity (and insanity) thorough history. One of my fav podcasts !
I recommend this podcast to everyone often with the caveat that it may become unhinged. Kaveh & Hannah’s friendship is something to rival. Incredibly funny.
Listen to this podcast if you want to be good at Jeopardy!
Hannah and Kaveh have me laughing out loud while learning about various subjects. Hannah’s commentary says aloud what we are all thinking. Love these two!
This is one of my favorite podcasts of all time. While listening, I have laughed as many times as I have learned something new. I highly recommend this pod if you are neurodivergent, and if you want to simultaneously engage and disengage with the current horrors of the world.

This show pairs two playful co-hosts as they pick a single browser tab and unpack it in a lively, banter-filled discussion. Across episodes, they mix quirky research notes, personal anecdotes, and strong chemistry to explore a wide range of topics—from odd historical tidbits to pop culture curiosities—often turning every tab into a meandering, entertaining deep-dive. Listeners stay for the informal storytelling, rapid-fire tangents, and the sense of hanging out with friends who share a curiosity about random, brainy topics. A notable strength is the warm, conversational vibe and playful wordplay that make even obscure subjects approachable and memorable for a broad audience.
