From cuffing season to Cardi B, they’ll take what’s trending and put it under the microscope with the help of some very smart (and cool) scientific friends. At Dope Labs, we believe “science is for err... more

So happy you are back! Fascinating topics, fabulous friendship. THE REAL DEAL!
This was a great podcast! There is a lot of charm and chemistry between the hosts, and their genuine love of science shines through every episode. It's fun, but it's also a serious podcast and you *will* learn from it. Highly recommended.
EDIT: Podcast is now a Spotify exclusive, so I have sadly unsubscribed from my dead feed. :-(
I love this podcast! It's nice to hear someone that talks like me, talk about science!
Great show but have drop when moves exclusively to Spotify. Spotify is for music not podcasts.
I do love this podcast. Not only they are dope scientists, clearly into the subjects they're investigating, I also love the friendship between them and really enjoy the additional reading materials with beautiful graphics.
I think it's also really beneficial for listeners (especially who are not in STEM) to break it down into steps like with a normal science experiment. I think it's a great way to show people how science exploration works.
