I first discovered Dr Karl on BBC Radio 5 many years ago and he kindly answered one of my questions. He’s so enthusiastic about everything and it’s fantastic listening to him speak. 10/10. Absolutely brilliant. He’s so respectful to people who ask questions too.
10/10!!!! Would recommend. But there is one problem with answering the viewers questions which moves my rating to a 4, which is completely going off topic from the question, or trying to ‘guess’ things if you don’t know it. Other than that slight issue I think the podcast is great, entertaining, and I love going to sleep listening to it.
10/10!!!! Would recommend
Love Dr Karl. Thank you for being you. Worst thing is the stupid ad for the hack podcast at the end of every episode. Please get rid of it!
Dr Karl and Lucy are the best! Love your podcast
