  • Audio quality makes it hard to listen to :(

    Episode content is well done BUT the differing audio volumes of the two cohosts makes it impossible to listen to the show at a single volume. Brian’s segments are low and muffled, but turning up the volume to adequately hear what he’s saying makes Nicole’s segments unbearably loud. If they could fix this, it would be a great show!!

  • Fascinating Stories

    When I studied for my engineering ethics exam I was shocked at how compelling the stories of failures were.

    When Nicole studied for her exam, she realized the wider world deserved to know these stories too. She and her cohost do a wonderful job. Highly recommended!

  • Fascinating!

    I have been listening to these episodes together with my 10yo son who aspires to be an engineer one day. Every episode sparks lots of questions, and we enjoy searching out the answers together. I am learning so much, and my son loves hearing these engineering challenges discussed in an accessible and informative way.
