- Five stars for having science as a subject matter
As one of the few Filipinos who take scientific achievements and discoveries seriously, I actually appreciate that we have like-minded fellow Filipinos who take the step forward by sharing through this podcast what’s new and what’s worth knowing in the local scientific community.
On a personal note, I listen to this podcast at work whenever I can. Keep educating and keep it up! Good job.

Philippines4 years ago - Ano ang itsura ng mundong walang gagamba
Listened to this episode out of curiosity and found myself hoping this episode was longer. Ang galing nung guest magexplain about spiders na kahit intimidating silang creatures in real life, she made them sound so interesting. I never thought about how important spiders are to the ecosystem until I listened to this episode.
Apple Podcasts5maribell santosPhilippines5 years ago - Great Podcast!
Thanks for launching this podcast! I'm delighted to learn something new, especially with the field of astrophysics and the state of our space agency. I also love to see the application of space agency or space science and technology toward our disaster response in the future. I really admire the interviewer for being articulate and Dr. Sese for being informative.
Apple Podcasts5L30_31Philippines5 years ago - Bakit Ang Hirap Magpaliit ng Tiyan?
Very insightful! As an inspiring medical doctor, I was inspired by how passionate and knowledgeable Dr. Dex is. This podcast was very full of information that can be easily understood by anyone. I don't regret listening to this podcast. But, what I do regret is that I was only able to listen to this until now. I don't even have an Apple ID nor iTunes, yet it was totally worth it to give my effort in rating and reviewing this podcast — it was that good! Thank you very much for this!
